Removing subcutaneous hair permanently, my experience
My experience with permanent ingrown hair removal was an exciting and beneficial experience for me. I started this process after I decided to get rid of the problem of unwanted hair growth under the skin, which was causing me a lot of inconvenience and discomfort.
I started consulting with a hair removal expert and consulting many people who had undergone this procedure before, and based on their recommendations, I decided to start the treatment.
During the first few sessions, I felt some pain and redness in the treated area, but as time went on and the treatment continued, I started to notice a significant improvement in my skin condition and ingrown hair growth. The results were amazing and I noticed a significant reduction in hair density and less swelling and irritation in the treated area.
After the treatment, I could feel a huge difference in the appearance of my skin and felt more confident and comfortable than ever. The experience of permanently removing ingrown hair was a fruitful one and worth all the effort and time I spent on it.
I am grateful to the experts who helped me achieve these amazing results and I would recommend everyone to try this procedure if they are suffering from the same problem.
Causes of ingrown hair
People often suffer from ingrown hair, and the following are some factors that contribute to this problem:
Using blades to remove hair in ways that may be incorrect can lead to this problem.
– Cutting hair too close to the skin increases the chance of it growing inward.
– Using other methods such as waxing or tweezers can increase the chances of ingrown hairs appearing.
- Not paying attention to exfoliating the skin and removing dead cells may cause the pores to close, which exacerbates the problem.
Excessive force during hair removal in different ways can cause this condition.
People with curly or wavy hair often have more problems with ingrown hair.
A thorough understanding of these causes can help prevent ingrown hairs and make them easier to treat if they do occur.
Prevent ingrown hair
To reduce the appearance of ingrown hair, you can follow several effective strategies.
1. Peeling
- Exfoliation helps cleanse the skin of dead cell layers that accumulate on its surface.
- These cells may hinder the natural growth of new hairs, causing them to become stuck inside the follicles, causing them to grow inward.
- Exfoliation can help lift and pull ingrown hairs out of the skin, so they can grow properly and without obstruction.
2. Dry cleaning
- Exfoliation is an effective way to remove dead cells that have accumulated on the surface of the skin.
- This is done using a brush with long, soft bristles, which is moved gently and in a circular motion on the skin to reveal a new, smoother, healthier layer.
- Removing these dead cells helps keep pores clean and reduces the risk of infection from ingrown hairs.
- It is also important to avoid hair removal methods such as waxing, shaving or plucking in areas prone to peeling skin so that healthy hair has the opportunity to grow naturally without problems.
3. Practice good shaving techniques.
To reduce the chances of ingrown hairs after shaving, it is important to use a sharp, clean razor, and avoid using old or worn blades.
The blade should also be rinsed thoroughly after each use. Improving shaving technique may include shaving less often to allow hair to grow naturally.
It is advisable not to overuse disposable blades. To achieve a smoother shave, it is helpful to use a shaving cream or gel before starting the process.
Choosing the right blade is important, and shaving in the direction of hair growth can reduce the risk of irritation and ingrown hairs.
Methods of treating ingrown hair
1- Laser hair removal
Home laser technology is an innovative way to remove hair permanently, as it helps eliminate the problem of ingrown hair.
These devices target hair follicles directly by emitting concentrated light pulses that carry thermal energy, which leads to weakening of the follicles and gradual hair loss over several sessions.
The effectiveness of the device lies in its ability to identify hair follicles using the melanin present in them, which makes the process accurate and successful.
2- Electrolysis for hair removal
Electrolysis is an effective method of permanently removing hair using electrical energy.
During this procedure, a qualified professional uses a tiny wire that is inserted through the skin into each hair follicle.
An electric current is sent through it to the base of the follicle, which damages the roots and deprives the follicle of its ability to produce hair, which contributes to permanent hair loss.
3- Some medicines and products
- To improve ingrown hair conditions, there are many medical preparations and therapeutic products available that play an important role in alleviating this condition and preventing its recurrence.
- It is advisable to avoid shaving for a certain period and keep the skin moisturized to allow the hair to grow outside the skin.
- In other cases, moisturizing creams can be applied to enhance the smoothness of the skin and help prevent hair from growing inside the scalp.
- There are also uses for antibiotics, either tablets or ointments, that can reduce the infection caused by ingrown hairs.
- Prescription retinoid creams are effective in treating acne-like symptoms and help skin cell renewal.
- The role of steroid creams or tablets should not be overlooked, which are used to reduce swelling and inflammation that may appear as a result of this condition.
- Additionally, there are toners that contain compounds such as salicylic and glycolic acids, which belong to the beta hydroxy and alpha hydroxy categories respectively, and are useful in exfoliating the skin and thus reducing the problem of ingrown hairs.
