There’s another player on the block as far as hair removal is concerned. We’ve heard of lasers, epilators, creams and the ever-changing razor. Thermicon is another method of unwanted hair removal.
Permanent hair removal is often done with the help of a laser. Unfortunately, this treatment won’t work on all skin and hair types. Because of the pigment in some darker skin tones, the laser, being the source of light and being subject to color reflection, cannot reach the hair follicle properly, reducing the chances of hair removal.
Thermicon has reportedly found success where laser hair removal has failed.
Hair is constantly growing all over your body. Hair has three distinct growth cycles, a growth phase, a dormant phase, and a shedding phase. During the period of development, it is growing from the follicle. The follicle is open, allowing the hair to grow out of it. In the dormant stage, growth is complete so they are no longer actively growing. The final stage is when the hair pulls away from the follicle and naturally falls out, leaving room for new hair to grow in its place.
Obviously, these three phases don’t happen simultaneously, or you’ll go completely bald at some point when the old ones make room for the new ones! Each hair follicle has its own hair cycle, so you don’t notice when a new hair is growing in, and you hardly notice when an old hair is falling out.
Thermicon targets the follicle, which is the birthplace of hair growth. It begins by heating and dissolving the hair above the skin line, then penetrates the follicle beneath the skin. After the hair is removed, it also blocks cells from growing under the skin, thereby preventing future hair growth.
There are some side effects of using this type of heating technique. The skin may feel burning, dry, and itchy, and the ingrown hair may feel sharp or prickly until it is completely removed. However, the generous aspect of Thermicon is that it works well regardless of skin tone or hair type.
Will Thermicon replace other methods of hair removal such as lasers? Not immediately, but as the market strengthens, those looking for a permanent hair removal system now have another option that can solve the problems that come with other procedures.
