Laser epilation is considered one of the most effective ways to get rid of unwanted hair, which allows you to keep the skin smooth for 5-10 years. A mandatory condition for obtaining and maintaining the desired result is adherence to the session schedule. The number of procedures and breaks between laser hair removal is determined by the specialist who performed the manipulation.
WHY TO ENDURE THE INTERVAL BETWEEN LASER EPILATION
The need to conduct a course of sessions and observe the periodicity of laser hair removal is due to physiology. In the process of life, hairs go through 3 stages:
- active growth – anagen;
- suspension of growth and keratinization of hair shafts – catagen;
- rest, shedding of old hair and emergence of a new one – telogen.
Laser rays act only on hair follicles that are in the anagen phase, almost 40% of them. Completion of the course is necessary to get rid of all hair shafts, including those that are in the resting stage. It is worth waiting for the interval between laser epilation sessions, so that the growing hairs on the laser-treated areas fall off, and the dormant ones start to grow.
WHAT IS THE OPTIMUM BETWEEN LASER EPILATION
The interval between laser hair removal procedures depends primarily on the type of laser. In 4U Body&Skin, a diode laser is used for hair removal. With this type of equipment, the course includes 6-12 procedures, the interval between them is 6 weeks. With hypertrichosis, hormonal surges, the schedule is adjusted by the master.
The intervals between laser hair removal are determined by a specialist on an individual basis and depends on:
- hormonal background;
- hereditary factors;
- epilation areas;
- skin and hair type.
As a rule, men need more procedures to completely remove vegetation than women. The lighter the skin and the darker the hair, the fewer sessions are needed.
After the first epilation procedure, 7-20% of the hair shafts fall out. With each subsequent manipulation, the hair weakens and thins, the intervals between sessions gradually increase.
WHAT CAN YOU MINUTE AN HOUR WITH LASER EPILATION,
YOU WILL VIEW THE GRAPHICS?
Insignificant withdrawal for 1-2 days is acceptable. As if the hairs grew earlier than the term, acknowledging the visit to the salon, the interval shortens. First of all, the date of opening of the esthetician center can be postponed to a new term, as new haircuts have not appeared yet. The main indicator of my widow is the growth of the hairline, which seemed to be.
As if I had a chance to interrupt the course of epilation with a laser, it can be renewed at any time. The number of manipulations with the improvement of the number of previous sessions can be increased, but it is not necessary to start the course from scratch. What interval between laser epilation will be installed at such a time – the specialist will choose.
SKIN CARE AND LIMITATIONS BETWEEN EPILATION SESSIONS
For clients of salons, in addition to following the schedule, it is equally important to prepare for hardware manipulation and follow the rules of care for epilated skin.
3-4 weeks before going to the specialist, as well as after laser epilation, in the intervals between the procedures, the hair is exclusively shaved with a razor. You should give up sugaring, waxing, plucking with tweezers, and using an electric epilator. The use of depilatory cream is also undesirable.
If you take antibiotics (tetracyclines, fluoroquinolones), sulfonamide drugs, you should stop taking them 2 weeks before the session. During 2 weeks before and after the procedure, tanning is prohibited, during 3 days – visiting the bathhouse and swimming pool. After the procedure, you should protect your skin from the sun with an SPF cream.
After completing the course, preventive sessions are held 1-2 times a year.
