'I have to shave my underarms so often

that it is quite a hassle. Is it okay

to start laser hair removal now?'

As summer approaches and clothing becomes lighter, underarm hair can be more noticeable than expected.

Not only when wearing sleeveless tops, but also when exercising or during seasons when you sweat more, it can feel uncomfortable when your underarm hair feels stubbly even though you shaved that morning.

In particular, repeated shaving can sometimes cause inflammation due to skin irritation, and the skin may also become darkened.

So today, I will summarize the principles of laser hair removal and the care methods before and after treatment that may be helpful for those considering Jamsil underarm hair removal.

1. Why does frequent shaving irritate the skin?

Shaving is the easiest hair removal method to perform.

However, the underarms have thin skin and are an area that folds and rubs whenever you move your arms, so the irritation may be felt more strongly there than in other areas, even when shaving in the same way.

Because the razor blade lightly scrapes the surface of the skin along with cutting the hair, the area can inevitably become more sensitive.

If this condition is left untreated and shaving is repeated frequently, stinging or redness may eventually appear, along with bumpy irritation around the hair follicles.

Depending on the individual, the hair may also curl inward under the skin, like an ingrown hair, causing discomfort.

Example of darkened underarm skin

Another issue is dark-looking discoloration.

Of course, not every case of dark-looking underarms can be considered a pigmentation problem.

Even immediately after shaving, thick hair remaining beneath the skin may show through and make the area appear dark.

However, when repeated friction and irritation overlap, the skin tone may also appear duller.

Therefore, when looking into Jamsil underarm hair removal, rather than simply considering whether the hair can be removed,

it is advisable to first have a thorough consultation to determine how sensitive your underarm skin has become due to frequent shaving.

Laser hair removal uses the principle that laser energy reacts to the dark color of hair, namely the melanin pigment.

The energy is delivered around the hair roots, helping reduce the hair's ability to grow.

Hair does not all grow in the same state at once; it repeatedly cycles through the growth, regression, and resting phases.

Because lasers respond better to hairs in the growth phase, treatment is often repeated at set intervals rather than completed in a single session.

The hair growth cycle and laser hair removal

Underarm hair removal is a treatment that requires repeated sessions timed to the growth phase of the hair.

Therefore, rather than finishing in one session, it is necessary to observe changes over time at set intervals.

If you are curious about the appropriate number of sessions, please refer to the article below. ^^

[Jamsil underarm hair removal If you are wondering where to go for effective treatment?]

ApogeePlus, a representative laser hair removal device, uses a 755 nm Alexandrite laser.

This wavelength is used for hair removal based on its characteristic of responding to melanin pigment.

It also incorporates a cooling system, which helps reduce the heat and discomfort that may be felt during laser irradiation,

so it has the advantage of allowing treatment of relatively coarse, thick hair such as facial hair, as well as larger areas, while minimizing pain as much as possible.

However, even for the same underarm area, treatment may vary slightly depending on each person's skin characteristics.

-For those with thick hair

-For those whose hair is thin but spread over a wide area

-For those who develop irritation easily after shaving

Those in the above categories may feel somewhat more pain, so please proceed only after having a sufficient consultation with a medical professional before treatment.

Before starting laser hair removal, it is best to avoid waxing or using tweezers.

The target to which the laser must respond is not the hair itself visible above the skin, but the pigment around the hair root.

However, if the hair is pulled out from the root, the target for the laser to react to may be reduced, which could lower the hair removal efficiency, right?

Therefore, if grooming is necessary before treatment, shaving is generally the more appropriate method. ^^

After treatment, the skin may be temporarily sensitive, so it is best to avoid activities that significantly increase heat, such as saunas, heated rooms, and strenuous exercise, on the day of treatment and for several days afterward.

The underarms are an area with a lot of sweat and friction, so please remember that well-ventilated clothing may be more comfortable than tight-fitting clothes. ^^

Finally, moisturizing is also important. When the skin is dry, itching or redness can feel more uncomfortable.

It is best to soothe the skin with a moisturizer that causes little irritation. ^^

Jamsil underarm hair removal is not simply care to tidy up unwanted hair before summer.

For those who are bothered by the hassle of shaving frequently, stubble after shaving, and repeated skin irritation, it can be an option that makes daily care more convenient.

However, because the thickness of the hair and the skin's response vary from person to person, please make a plan after checking your current condition rather than deciding on the number or interval of sessions in advance.
