Overview
If you have sensitive skin, it is important to choose the right method that will not only give you results but also make you feel good without any side effects, and laser hair removal is your best option. You will need to avoid shaving or plucking your hair, as other hair removal methods can destroy the skin and hair follicles. Compared to waxing, it is a much less painful and better alternative for hair removal for all skin types.
Laser hair removal is designed with sensitive skin in mind and is safe enough to be used on different skin types on different parts of the body while still providing the best results.
Does shaving and waxing cause irritation?
People who have sensitive skin often experience irritation when they shave or wax. Shaving and waxing removes the hair, but it also interacts with all of the skin in the area, too. Shaving scrapes a blade across the skin and waxing pulls at the skin to get the hair out by the root. If your skin is sensitive, these actions can cause a lot of pain and irritation. Sensitive skin is already vulnerable, and shaving and waxing just makes it worse.
How does laser hair removal work?
Laser hair removal works by directing a laser into the hair follicle preventing the hairs from growing without damaging or disrupting the skin’s surface.
Laser hair removal can be used in a variety of areas including the face, back, arms and legs. It can even be used on pubic hair and other sensitive areas, making laser one of the better hair removal options for those with sensitive skin.
