Laser Hair Removal For Use In The Home

By: Alexander Mason Click author's name for more of his/her articles

The traditional ways of removing hair have tended to be either painful, time consuming and messy. Whether this is waxing, plucking or shaving whichever method is best raises debate amongst the majority of women and more recently a few men too! What is certain, there hasn't up to now been the perfect solution and we continue to stick with the method of hair removal that suits us best.

The other serious alternative to these, other than allowing the hair to grow of course, (an alternative rarely discussed!) is to use a variety of laser hair removal or IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) system. These more often than not are the sole domain of commercial beauty salons and luxurious health spas. It is frequent visits to these establishments which result in permanent hair removal which starts with hair regrowth slowing down and becoming sparser as treatments progress.

The downside to these types of treatment of course is the expense and hassle of visiting the salon or spa when all you need is to be looking good that Friday or Saturday night. There is a whole list of more pressing things to do like choosing and outfit, doing your hair and general pampering which means a quick shave of the legs will simply have to do! The likelihood of cramming a quick visit to the beauty clinic is hardly on the cards when life reaches it's most hectic points.

There are alternatives becoming available to the mass population in terms of at home laser hair removal systems and more recently even IPL hair removal systems. Still requiring a modicum of foresight however, over time these at home salon experiences mean that you can fit in serious hair removal sessions without the hassle, expense and sometimes self-conscious visits to the local clinic.

It is of course a balance as these devices can be expensive to buy upfront, but the cost savings within the course of just one year will pay for even the most expensive options easily. What's more, the level of the technology has become so much better, that it is now perfectly reasonable to find that some home based systems, (such as the Silk'n hair removal system) can provide an improved result on previous salon treatments - especially compared to salons not investing heavily in the latest equipment.

The very latest incarnation of hair removal products which acts in a similar way to IPL and laser therapies is the No! No! hair removal system. There has been some great reports of this clever and unique technology which is based on the Thermicon system to destroy hairs at their root permanently. Used once a week, it is understood that hairs grow back significantly less frequently and much more sparsely. Making subsequent waxing, plucking and shaving easier, quicker and less painful.

So the quick fixes of the past whether it be waxing, something I personally have never been able to enjoy, plucking (who has the time?) and shaving are getting a run for the money. It is probable that by combining two methods, for example shaving and IPL, that most people will find a good mix between ongoing treatments to make hair regrowth slow and therefore making the traditional methods easier and quicker to carry out.
