Skin improvement with light
Description
For centuries, people have spent time on skin improvement and unwanted hair removal. For a long time with mechanical techniques that remove dead skin cells and cut or pull out hairs. This is painful or has limited duration and effectiveness. In recent years, lasers and flash lamps, whose light enters the skin and acts on physiological processes, have been on the rise. Effect: significant skin improvement and long-term hair removal. There are now effective and safe products for home use. Structure and biology of skin and hair, the interaction of light with them and the results achieved are discussed. How the devices and products are constructed is also explained.
