In order to understand how hair can be permanently removed, one first has to
understand how it grows.
1) Hair comes from the hair follicles. One square centimetre of human skin can
contain between 60 and 500 follicles. A hair can grow from every follicle, but
the speed of growth varies for different follicles.
2) Every hair passes through a growth cycle, which is divided into the growth
phase, the transitional phase and the rest phase. During the growth phase (2
- 7 years), the hair grows approx. 0.3 mm every day. During the transition
phase (2 - 3 weeks), the hair root is separated from the nutrient supply, and
the hair is pushed towards the surface of the skin. During the rest phase (2 -
4 months), the hair sits loosely in the hair channel and then falls out.
3) Hair removal is only effective if the growth of the hair in the hair follicle can
be curbed or stopped.
4) It is often believed that the hairs appearing one week after epilating are the
same hairs as those that were removed, but in this case these are hairs that
stem from the neighbouring follicles.
5) For this reason, it is important to undergo the treatment one or two times
each week, as the first results only appear after a few weeks of treatment and
the effect increases through continuous application of the produce.
