How to treat excess body hair in women

1. Choose shaving tools

Using a razor or a special shaver to remove sweat hair is a common method of removing leg hair. It is also very simple to operate and can remove leg hair immediately, keeping the skin smooth in a short time. However, it can only remove hair on the surface of the skin. New leg hair will grow quickly and become thicker and thicker. It must be shaved every 1-3 days. It is also easy to cut the skin or cause redness and swelling during shaving. It is recommended to take a shower before shaving to soften the hair before shaving, use a three-sided razor for women, and shave against the direction of hair growth to reduce the chance of scratching the skin. Also, change the razor frequently to reduce infection of the hair follicles.

2. Choose shaving products

(1) Waxing

Waxing is a method of removing hair by "pulling out the hair by the roots" and does not involve any chemical drugs or rubbing the skin like a razor does, so the hair can remain beautiful and smooth for a longer period of time after removal. However, waxing is very painful, so it is recommended to find an experienced professional beautician to avoid unnecessary pain.

(2) Hair removal cream

Depilatory cream uses chemical principles to remove sweat hair. Apply the depilatory cream on the thighs, leave it on for 5-10 minutes, wipe off the leg hair with a cotton pad, and then wipe the skin with a hot towel. Since hair removal is done using chemical principles, it is not suitable for people with allergic skin.

3. Choose laser hair removal

Laser hair removal is very suitable for girls with long and dense leg hair. It is currently the safest, fastest and most effective hair removal technology. The principle of laser hair removal is: the light beam emitted by the laser machine will penetrate the surface of the skin, which is very sensitive to the melanocytes of the hair follicles. The heat acts on the hair follicles. When the temperature rises to a certain level, the hair follicles are damaged and can no longer grow hair, but there is no damage to the normal epidermis. During the laser hair removal process, a burning sensation or burning pain will be produced, which may cause white spots or dark spots, but the scars will be removed after a period of time, thus achieving the purpose of permanent hair removal.
