Easy Hair-Removal Treatments

Easy hair-removal treatments can be painless for some and messy and uncomfortable for others. Due to the fact that hair thickens over the years, such growth can become problematic and require laser treatment. That being said, a wide area of the cosmetic industry is dedicated to hair removal and skin treatments--some done professionally and others at home. Many hair-removal methods are performed by chain facilities, like NuU Medspa or by individuals, private practices and doctors.

A form of hair removal and skin rejuvenation is done by Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy. Some describe this as an instant procedure that is effective when performed on large patches of hair like the back area, since the laser has a wide beam. IPL is a more comfortable option for some patients and is deemed a quicker process.

Easy Hair-Removal Treatments Have an Upside and a Downside for Consumers

While laser services are becoming more popular, some still rely on the at-home methods to remove their unwanted fuzz. These choices include pros and cons, but vary depending on an individual’s skin and preference. Some of the removal methods offered on the cosmetic market include:

  • Waxing: a painful and messy process, sometimes with an inconsistent removal outcome
  • Shaving: easy and painless, but requires a daily process and can sometimes lead to ingrown hairs
  • Cream depilatories: a chemical dissolves the hair, sometimes irritating the skin and eyes

NuU Medspa offers safe, effective, and non-surgical treatment options, including laser services for permanent reduction of follicles. These procedures are performed at several locations throughout the United States.
