Women’s Facial Hair: How To Shave Face & Not Fall For A Fad
Shaving peach fuzz? Think twice. IPL and ND YAG laser offer safe, proven facial hair removal for women—without the risk of stubble or a ‘man beard’.
Do you think women’s facial hair is taboo? According to a popular women’s health magazine, it is now common practice for models/actresses to shave their faces. This is to get rid of ‘peach fuzz’, really? I am not convinced, according to dermatologists quoted in the article, that the hair does not thicken or get darker. Well, if legs are anything to go by, I certainly am not taking a chance on shaving my ‘downy soft and pale blonde’ peach fuzz. Especially, not on the presumption that it will do no harm. You have other solutions, ladies, and yes, they may be costly than a disposable razor, but then there are proven results. They are also built on lots of research and have no risk of getting a ‘man beard’.
Two methods of treatment for women’s facial hair removal:
Both use light as an energy source to destroy the hair at the growth level. However, they are not equal or to be confused as the ‘same’ treatment. IPL uses an Intense Pulsed Light to create energy and destroy the hair within the follicle. It is important to note that skin colour needs to be taken into consideration with these machines. We recommend the ProWave™, which is by no means an entry-level machine. This machine treats skin types 1 – 4 and is slightly more costly than the laser. However, it is essential to note that fewer treatments are required with this IPL machine than with the ND: Yag Laser. LASER We recommend the ND YAG Laser, which uses a long-pulsed targeted light beam. It creates a thermal action within the follicle and thus destroys the hair growth area. This laser can safely be used on all skin colours and is made to adapt to just a few settings, including European and black skin. Ladies, there are so many alternatives to shaving your face, please just don’t do it! Invest in treatments you know have been researched, and don’t take a chance.
