Illinois Permanent Laser Hair Removal

Professional hair removal encompasses several different techniques from waxing to electrolysis. Which method will work best depends on what the ultimate goal of the procedure is and several other factors.

Different Forms of Professional Hair Removal Return Different Results

  • Waxing is the most common professional removal method. A bikini or Brazilian wax can last for several weeks, but is not permanent.
  • Sugaring is essentially the same as waxing, only a sugar-based substance is used. The results will typically be the same. The advantage is in the cleanup, because sugar-based substances dissolve in water.
  • Electrolysis involves inserting an electrified wire into the follicle. While home kits are available, the technique is difficult to master and should be performed by a professional.
  • Laser hair removal involves using light to burn away roots and follicles, making them incapable of regenerating hair. Both laser and Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology are generally referred to as laser hair removal, and both have essentially the same results. Because the supporting structures are damaged, regrowth is less likely and slower, making this a nearly permanent solution to unwanted growth.

If price is the biggest issue, then waxing, sugaring or shaving will be the best options. If the goal is long-lasting results, then electrolysis or laser treatment are better options.
