PERMANENT HAIR REMOVAL in STRASBOURG

• Intense pulsed light, a technique used mainly by beauticians. This technique consists of removing hair by sending beams of light of varying intensity, which are absorbed by the hair bulb. Pulsed light used in hair removal consists of several wavelengths and a rather broad, not very targeted light field. The heat generated by this technique is the only thing in common with the laser, as it destroys the hair at its root. However, this technique offers results that are very variable and take longer to achieve, depending on the quality of the material used, but also and above all on the patient’s phototype and the colour of his or her hair. The ideal patient is one with fair skin and very pigmented hair. If the difference in pigmentation of the skin and the hair is less contrasted, this technique does not enable quality results to be achieved, since the hair is not recognised by the light beam.

• The laser is a technique reserved for trained doctors. Laser hair removal is considered to be a medical procedure, and as such can only be carried out by dermatologists or cosmetic doctors trained in this technique Unlike pulsed light, it is suitable for all skin phototypes and hair colours. The laser is characterised by a light beam composed of specific wavelengths programmed according to the colour of the hair to be treated. The light beam is narrower, allowing better targeting of the hair bulbs This guarantees more effective and above all lasting results.
