A facial hair removal system that is right for you



There are many common hair removal treatments that are inexpensive and fast, but there are a number of factors to consider before trying any of them. Shaving is the most common and widely used method. Most people use a razor or clippers to keep their unwanted facial hair trimmed. However this is short term because the hair tends to grow back thicker. So shaving must be done every other day, depending on the person and how fast their hair grows back.

There are also depilatory creams that can be used, these to are cheap, but they are very messy and can be very irritating to the skin. Sometimes the cream works and sometimes it doesn't.

Waxing is a very popular treatment that women prefer to use. This method is some what longer lasting than shaving, but is extremely painful. If you can stand pouring hot or cold wax on your face, then ripping out strips of hair, by all means use this popular method. There are also many other methods you can try.




Permanent facial hair removal



Laser hair removal is also a popular method, however this treatment is not permanent and it is painful and extremely expensive. It requires numerous visits which requires payment for every session, and it can irritate the skin depending on the persons tolerance level. The results are fairly long lasting. So if money is not an issue, you might want to consider this method.

If you are looking for a permanent facial hair removal system, then consider Electrolysis. With this method the hair follicles are destroyed by using a needle to inject pulses of electricity into each hair follicle killing the root, which stops the hair from growing. Now hair grows in different stages so this method requires many sessions as well.

This method also hurts and can leave serious scarring to the face, making you wish you had left that facial hair right where it was. Last but not least Electrolysis is also very expensive and can cost you thousands of dollars depending on how much hair your trying to remove. Most people are unaware that the FDA does not like using the term permanent hair removal, because your hair will eventually grow back. Just like the everlasting battery that goes on and on, but does not really last forever. Electrolysis is not literally permanent, it just stops the regrowth for a very long time, a few years at the most.
