What are the consequences of improper hair removal?

Definition of depilation

Too long or too thick body hair will affect the appearance, especially some women's lips are thicker and look like beards, which seriously affects the appearance of women and must be removed. There are two commonly used hair removal methods: permanent hair removal and temporary hair removal.

Classification of depilation

Permanent depilation

Permanent hair removal is to use the ultra-high frequency oscillation signal generated by the hair removal machine to form an electrostatic field, which acts on the hair, destroys the hair follicle, makes the hair fall off and no new hair grows, thus achieving the effect of permanent hair removal. This method of hair removal is painless and does not damage the surrounding skin. Repeated use will damage hair follicles and make hair lose its ability to regenerate. Often used to remove armpit hair, long eyelashes and messy eyebrows.

Temporary depilation

Temporary hair removal is the temporary removal of hair with depilatory or wax, but it will soon grow new hair. Depilating agents include depilatory liquid, depilatory cream, depilatory cream, etc. , which contains chemical components that can dissolve hair, can dissolve hair shaft, and achieve the purpose of hair removal. It is mostly used to depilate fine hair, which can make new hair thinner and lighter when used frequently. It has the characteristics of convenient use and can be used at home by itself. Chemical depilatory is irritating to the skin, so it cannot be attached to the skin for a long time. Be sure to clean it with warm water after use, and then apply nutritional cream. Note that allergic skin is not suitable for use. Hair removal wax is divided into frozen wax and hot wax. The main components of frozen wax are various resins, which are highly viscous, soluble in water and gelatinous. When in use, it does not need to be heated, and can be directly applied to the skin of the hair removal part, which is closely attached to the skin and has no discomfort, and is suitable for hair removal of sensitive parts. Hot wax is a mixture of beeswax and resin. Generally solid, it needs to be heated and melted before use, and can only be applied to the skin when the temperature is reduced to be suitable for the skin. Frozen wax is convenient to use, but its cost is high. The cost of hot wax is low, and the used wax can be reused after disinfection, heating and wool filtering, but the operation is troublesome. It is necessary to master the temperature of wax skillfully and accurately to avoid overheating burning customers or affecting the hair removal effect due to undercooling. Note that hair removal wax is generally used in beauty salons.

Effect: you can remove a large piece of hair at a time, even if the hair is longer, it will be thinner.

Side effects: it will cause pain; Moreover, chemically synthesized beeswax is easy to cause irritation to the skin; When it is removed, the body hair is easy to stay in a part of the pores, and the broken hair tail is easy to plunge into the hair follicle, causing folliculitis. Pay special attention to cleaning and nursing after hair removal.

7. electrotherapy hair removal

Suitable for people: people without scar constitution.

Usage: This kind of treatment should be carried out in the hospital. Anesthetic should be used before depilation. Then a very thin wire should be inserted into the hair root, and the hair follicle will be destroyed after being electrified. It takes 20 seconds for each hair.

Effect: it can permanently destroy hair follicles and make hair never grow. But after the operation, because the hair follicle is not completely destroyed, 20% ~ 30% of the hair usually grows again.

Side effects: In the process of hair removal, there will be a slight burning sensation on the skin surface, so it will produce temporary small scars. So to keep the wound dry, after about a week, the small scab skin will automatically fall off. If it is a scar constitution, it may leave small spots all over the body. 8. Laser hair removal

Principle: The melanin pigment in hair follicle will absorb the energy of laser, destroy hair follicle through heat exchange, and make hair stop growing.

Suitable person: someone with light skin and fine black hair.

Effect: Permanent hair removal is formed by destroying hair follicles.

8, laser hair removal

The melanin pigment in hair follicle will absorb the energy of laser, destroy hair follicle through the exchange of generated heat energy, and make hair stop growing. Suitable for people with light skin and fine black hair. Permanent hair removal is formed by destroying hair follicles. Because there is no melanin in hair follicles that are not growing, it is impossible to inhibit the growth of all hair follicles at one time; Laser treatment will damage the skin pigment and form spots; If more laser pulses or higher energy are used, scars may still be left on the skin; After treatment, there will be red fever, and the skin may become hard within two or three days, and traces of treatment may be left on the skin.

9, drug hair removal needs to be cautious.

In addition to the above-mentioned local hair follicle or hair depilation method, there is another method to achieve the effect of inhibiting hair growth by taking orally drugs that inhibit androgen. Traditional hair removal, such as shaving, wax and ointment, is only temporary hair removal, while electro-acupuncture hair removal needs to pierce hair follicles one by one, which is very time-consuming and prone to infection and pain. Hair can be roughly divided into hair shaft and hair root. Hair shaft refers to the part far away from the skin, hair root is the part embedded in the skin, and the skin around hair root is called hair follicle. The place with a part of the depression at the front end is the so-called nipple, where hair grows and develops. As long as the function of papilla is not lost, hair will regenerate even if it is removed. In order to achieve the effect of permanent hair removal, it is necessary to vaporize the nipple part and let the unwanted hair fall off naturally. Due to the rapid progress of laser technology and equipment and the maturity of laser treatment technology in recent two years, most medical cosmetic treatments must use lasers, otherwise it is difficult to exert the highest level of treatment effect.

10, laser permanent hair removal

Photoelectric permanent hair removal can be divided into two categories: one is laser hair removal based on ruby laser, emerald laser and chromite laser. Secondly, a new intense pulsed laser based on illumination mode. The new type of laser hair removal is to set safe and effective light wave wavelength and energy according to the patient's skin characteristics, hair characteristics and hair removal site, track dark brown hair follicles and vaporize hair papillae to achieve the purpose of permanent hair removal. The new laser can transmit energy to dozens or even more hair follicles at a time, so that the hair follicles will wither and achieve the effect of permanent hair removal. Because hair itself is divided into three stages: primary stage, growth stage and mature stage, only the treatment in the primary stage will be really effective, so the effectiveness of the first time is about 50%, the second time is about 70%, and the third time is about 90%, with an interval of about 4 weeks. You can get satisfactory results after about three times. Using laser to remove armpit hair can also help to eliminate some unexpected body odor effects, which really kills two birds with one stone.

One kind of depilation-"armpit hair"

Hair removal target: armpit hair

Hair removal tool number 1: T-shaped shaver+hair plucking clip

* Easy to save money

* It really hurts when I pull it out.

① The skin under the armpit is uneven, so use a curved T-shaped razor instead of a flat razor, or you will be easily injured.

Hair removal skill

After using the T-shaped shaver, the armpit hairs emerging from the skin surface are coarse hair roots. At this time, it can be easily removed with a plucking clip. Not only is it completely removed, but the newly grown armpit hair is also thinner.

Hair removal skill

If the body hair is too long, cut it short first to keep the skin and hair dry, which makes it easier to shed hair. When using the electric hair remover, you should not apply any grease or emulsion to keep your skin fresh and dry. After unloading, apply emulsion and emulsion, and the effect will be good.

Long body hair should be cut short before depilation, and then gently rubbed to make it upright, which is easier to eradicate. Don't forget to keep the electric hair remover in close contact with the skin at 90 degrees and gently push it along the direction of hair growth.

Five keys to hair removal

Q: I have a mole on my leg and a long black hair on it. It's so ugly. What should I do?

A: This kind of hair can't be treated casually, because moles are living cells. If they are stimulated indiscriminately, they are likely to get worse. You can shave it off with a razor, but this is only a temporary treatment. If you want to do it once and for all, you'd better have a minor operation with a dermatologist.

Q: Does shaving make your hair thicker and thicker?

A: No, the hair shaved with a razor will have a flat cross section at the tip, so the hair will grow back and look thicker.

Q: How to reduce the skin irritation caused by plucking?

Answer: In order to avoid the phenomenon of body hair lodging, during hair removal, you should apply hair removal products along the growth direction of body hair, and shave or unplug body hair against the growth direction. After hair removal, you can immediately pat cold water to shrink pores and apply lotion. Within 48 hours, avoid contact with hot water, scrub and products containing artificial spices to avoid irritation and sensitivity.

Q: Can I sunbathe immediately after hair removal?

A: After shaving, the hair follicle and cuticle of the skin will fall off together, and the protective function of the skin surface will decrease, so it is not appropriate to bask in the sun immediately. If the method of plucking is used, the epidermis will be congested instantly during plucking, which is easy to be sensitive, and further irritation to the skin should be avoided.

Q: When is it not appropriate to depilate?

A: When you wake up in the morning, your skin tends to swell. Before and during menstruation, women are sensitive to pain and their skin is unstable. Hair removal should be avoided as much as possible. In addition, patients with diabetes, scurvy, skin diseases and varicose veins should not be depilated.

Summer "Hair Removal" Hurricane Action

Summer is coming again. Women who love beauty wear elegant backless skirts, chic vests and beautiful sandals and slippers, showing summer scenery with beautiful and smooth skin. At the same time, I also carried out a comprehensive "Hurricane Action of Hair Removal" on my armpits, lips, arms and legs.

Of course, for those small hairs that are unsightly, we can't shave them with a razor. There are several ways to remove hair, which you should know this summer.

If you want short-term effect, you can consider depilatory cream, beeswax, patch and other methods. These methods can be used to deal with those soft and fine hairs, and can quickly remove large areas of hair, especially the plaster depilation, which is light and durable.

Cut the patch according to the size of the required part and stick it on the required part. This method is suitable for traveling abroad and has no smell of chemicals. It takes a short time and lasts for a long time, and the regenerated hair is thinner. But there are two things we should pay attention to. First, people who are afraid of pain should not consider these three methods, because all three methods have pain; Second, these hair removal products all contain chemical components, which are relatively irritating to the skin. If your skin is allergic, or you use it too often, it will cause redness and allergies. ?

Many women like to use electric depilators. It is best to do skin exfoliation care before hair removal by this method, and dry the water droplets and water droplets on the skin before hair removal is more thorough. However, it is prohibited when the skin is allergic, suppurative or damaged; Do not use it in the shower. Before use, the hair on the skin should be cut short by 3 to 5 mm before depilation, which has the best effect.

At present, the ideal hair removal method is laser hair removal, which is rapid and painless. With luck, it can be done once and for all. It is much safer than electro-acupuncture hair removal (the only permanent hair removal method approved by the US Food and Drug Administration). Laser can remove a hair at the same time, and the risk of leaving scars after skin burns is very small. However, laser hair removal may still regenerate some hair, but the new hair will become slender and inconspicuous, and the effect will vary from person to person. Some people will grow hair after 6 months, while others will regenerate it after 2 years.

Laser hair removal is not perfect, because it is most suitable for people with light skin color and deep hair, and the treatment range is locked in "dark pigment". If your skin color is dark, the laser will destroy the skin pigment, causing white spots or black spots, and then it often takes several months to gradually recover.

Another commonly used laser-mild laser, although it can be widely used in any skin color and hair color, has weak penetration and is not easy to go deep into the skin to destroy hair follicles, so the effect can only last for 3 months, which is equivalent to twice waxing time, but the price is 25 times higher than that of beeswax. Laser has many functions. Alexander laser is generally chosen for hair removal, which is specially used to destroy hair follicles.

Laser hair removal has the advantages of accuracy, short time, fast wound healing and low risk of infection, but the following points should be considered before selection: doctors with rich experience in laser surgery should be selected before operation; Careful maintenance and strict sun protection should be taken after operation.

Finally, I have to remind everyone that it is necessary to moisturize and protect skin after hair removal no matter what method is used.

What are the consequences of improper hair removal?

1, hair coarsens.

Most people have a wrong idea about shaving, thinking that hair will get thicker and thicker. In fact, when shaving, the soft and thin tip is shaved off, leaving a thick hair shaft, because the cross section looks thicker. In fact, the hair growing from the roots is still the same thickness. It's the same reason that boys don't shave thick every day. However, shaving in thick hair will leave hair roots that are difficult to shave, and black spots will appear in pores, especially when the hair just grows out, which will affect the appearance. To avoid this, plucking or laser hair removal can be used.

2, embedded hair

This is the most dangerous complication of self-depilation, which is often caused by broken hair pulling or reverse shaving, and the hair cannot grow normally when buried in the skin. A small part of it is due to the damage of epidermis or hair follicle caused by depilation, and the pores are blocked when the skin heals, leading to hair embedding.

Inlaid hair looks like goose bumps. Because of hair burying, it will cause irregular inflammatory reaction and pigment scar. It is usually necessary to remove buried hair by surgery.

The correct hair removal method, combined with regular massage and exfoliation of hair removal parts, can help hair grow skin and prevent hair from embedding.

Step 3 dye

Chemical hair removal, such as beeswax, hair removal cream, hair removal mousse, etc. May cause irritation and sensitive reaction to the skin. People who are allergic to hair removal cream should not try drug hair removal. It is best to apply it to the inside of elbow first, and then carry out an allergic test to confirm that there is no redness, swelling, itching and other reactions before applying it to other parts.

Physical hair removal, such as shaver and hair removal knife, may cut the skin and cause pigmentation or scar if used improperly.

No matter what method you use to remove hair, it will cause slight damage to your skin. Be sure to moisturize and protect yourself from the sun after hair removal, otherwise there will be pigmentation after skin injury.

4, hair follicle inflammation, rough keratinization

Hair removal is not only painful, but also easy to cause hair follicle inflammation. After pulling out, you must apply lotion to calm and moisturize your skin. People with fragile skin can also apply antibiotic ointment (eye ointment such as chlortetracycline and oxytetracycline) in advance to avoid inflammation and infection.

Scraping and hair removal often causes scratches on the epidermis, which will make the skin keratinized and rough over time. Therefore, clean and lubricate the skin before shaving, and moisturize and exfoliate moderately after hair removal. The scraper must be replaced frequently to keep it clean and sharp.
