Many of us are tired of itchy stubble as our hair grows out. Despite this, we continue to shave and look for ways to get rid of unwanted hair growth. When it comes to hair removal, there are many different methods to choose from and each method has its advantages depending on the result you want. At Estetikcentrum in Malmö you will find smart and modern treatments that suit your skin type and are performed by trained and safe staff. Here we go through the most common methods and what you should consider when choosing which one suits you best.
Laser hair removal
Laser hair removal is one of the most popular and effective methods on the market right now and it is not difficult to understand why. The treatment is not only fast and provides long-lasting results, but it is also very gentle on the skin. Using a very bright light, we can target the hair follicles directly. When the light comes into contact with the dark hairs, heat is generated, which then destroys the hair follicle. At Estetikcentrum, we can perform hair removal using diode lasers that are suitable for you with both dark and light skin tones.

- Gentle on the skin

Hair removal with waxing
Waxing is a common method that is suitable for those who want a quick solution and are prepared to maintain the results. When waxing, the hairs are removed from the root, which means that they do not grow back for a couple of weeks. The method is suitable for areas such as legs, arms and bikini lines. However, many people find the method painful and it is not uncommon to have both redness and irritation in the skin. Unlike laser, waxing is also a temporary solution that requires repeated treatments to keep the skin hair-free. For best results, a treatment every 3-4 weeks is recommended.
Shaving – a simple but short-term solution
Shaving is perhaps the fastest, most common and easiest way to get rid of hair, but it rarely produces long-lasting results. Because shaving only cuts off the hair at the surface of the skin, it grows back quickly and you may need to shave several times a week to keep your skin smooth. As with waxing, shaving can also cause irritation or ingrown hairs, which is something to consider if you have sensitive skin.
Conclusion
There are many different methods of hair removal and what suits you best depends on your needs, pain tolerance and the results you want. If you are looking for a method that gives sustainable results and reduces the need for repeated treatments, we recommend diode laser hair removal.
