Are there any permanent hair removal techniques?

Well, this is a debatable topic. Some medical marketing campaigns claim a few methods to permanently remove the unwanted hair, while others argue that it’s not possible. You need to know that hair growth is a complex process and depends upon several factors that include diet, nutrition, lifestyle, hormone, heath, etc. Besides, the tools and techniques you apply on the skin for their removal also create an impact.

For example, shaving cuts the hair above the skin surface, so the regrowth somehow seems to be thicker and coarser. Also, the fact that the regrowth appears pretty sooner prevents shaving from being in the list of permanent hair removal methods.

 

Popular methods of permanent hair removal

Amid all the arguments for the possibilities of permanent hair removal techniques, there are three popular methods, known for the long-lasting Results:
