EpilPro II - Professional Laser Permanent Hair Removal Device (2024)

FAQs

Which laser is best for permanent hair removal? ›

ALEXANDRITE LASER – EFFECTIVE AND HIGH CONSCIOUS

The laser processes the hair roots with a wavelength of 755nm to permanently destroy them so that no hair can regrow.

It is not a permanent solution and hair will need to grow back between sessions for it to have enough length for the epilator to grab. An epilator is made up of dozens of tweezer-like pieces that pull hair out as the device is moved across the skin. This leaves the area temporarily hair free.

It is more effective and a lot safer and less painful than conventional electrolysis or laser treatment.

The fastest laser hair removal technology is Alexandrite, and the Medi-Diode which works best for larger body areas among patients who have light-to-olive complexions. Additionally, the Romeo & Juliette Synchro REPLAY dual-wavelength laser machine is one of the fastest and most powerful lasers available.

Electrolysis can permanently remove unwanted hair. Once your hair is gone, you won't need maintenance treatments. It works on all hair types, including light-colored hairs, which lasers cannot remove.

Electrolysis is considered a more permanent solution than laser hair removal (it stops hair growth completely while laser hair removal slows and reduces hair growth), but it requires more individual sessions (closer to 14), and the sessions can take longer. You might not see full results for nearly 18 months.

While an epilator might be uncomfortable or even painful (like waxing), anecdotal evidence suggests that this form of hair removal can prevent strawberry legs from occurring. Skipping shaving cream may also be causing your symptoms, so be sure to carefully moisturize the area before it comes in contact with a razor.

Although both processes have the same goal, they are not the same in practice. Epilation is cheaper than laser treatment, but the latter provides a far more risk-free and permanent result. You must always exercise caution when using an epilator. The device can lead to grievous injuries when not handled with care.

You can also use an epilator to remove coarser hair such as heavy facial hair and bikini or pubic hair. These epilators have more tweezer heads and stronger motors to help manage thicker hair. If you use an epilator for pubic hair, test out a small area first to be sure it doesn't irritate your skin or cause a rash.

Is it better to epilate wet or dry? ›

We recommend that you use most products on dry skin, as wet hair tends to stick more to the skin. Also, if you are aiming to do an on-the-go session, try using the product on dry skin instead. Be certain that your skin is clean and completely dry before using the appliance.

In general, epilators remove more hair than electric shavers do. Although they can take more time and effort to use than shavers, they can save you time and energy in the long run. Because an epilator removes hairs at the root, you won't have to use it again for several weeks.

Shave Before Treatment

You should shave within 24 hours of your scheduled laser appointment. Your laser technician cannot treat areas that have hair above the skin. You cannot even receive treatment if there is rough stubble because this may create too much heat for the pigment of your skin.

There is no way to remove hair permanently at home. However, it may be possible to permanently or semipermanently reduce hair growth. According to one study , intense pulsed light (IPL) devices designed for at-home use are safe, and if a person uses them regularly, they are effective for hair removal.

There are various kinds, including diode, alexandrite, and Nd:YAG. “The diode laser is the Mercedes-Benz of all lasers,” says Fusco.

Laser technology is simply much more effective, and achieves substantially better results than IPL with most clients achieving optimal results of permanent hair removal of 80% or greater after four to eight treatments. However, IPL machines do have an important place in the treatment of skin.

Diode lasers are typically more effective for individuals with darker hair and fair skin, while alexandrite lasers are more versatile and can be used on a wider range of skin types and hair colors. Another factor to consider is the treatment area.
