Benefits of photoepilation
This hair removal has several advantages compared with other methods:
- The duration of the session – 5-30 minutes, depending on the area of the zone.
- Effect of skin rejuvenation. Exposure to high-impulse light stimulates the production of collagen, which tightens the skin, making it more attractive and young.
- Individual selection of the regime depending on the type of skin and hair. Other methods of epilation (for example, laser) work only at one wavelength, while with photoepilation the wavelength can vary from 580 to 980 nm.
- No risk of infection after the sessions (such as from electroepilation).
- Ability to remove unwanted hair from any part of the body.
