Bioepilation is a procedure familiar to many - wax depilation, a method that many girls use to get rid of unwanted vegetation on the body.

Hair can be removed using cold, warm or hot wax for the procedure. The choice of wax type depends on the preference of each person performing the procedure, as well as the type of hair, which can be thin and soft, or coarse and thick.

What is meant by bioepilation? Bioepilation and its varieties

Basic information

With the help of cold wax (wax strips), if desired, excess vegetation is quickly and easily removed from any part of the body. However, this method has some drawbacks, among which one is the main one - wax strips help get rid of fine hairs, but cannot be used to remove hard and thick ones.

Cold wax is used to cleanse the hands, feet and face of excess hair.

Bioepilation with warm wax

Bioepilation can also be carried out with warm wax, which is sold packaged in cassettes or jars.

The wax is slightly heated (for this, a water bath or a special device called a wax melter is used). When the temperature of the wax reaches 40 °C, it is completely ready for the procedure. With the help of warm wax, hair is removed from the surface of the arms, legs, abdomen and back.

Biodepilation using hot wax should be carried out in beauty salons.

Of course, you can do it yourself, but first you need to see how to do it correctly so as not to burn the skin. This can be done by specialists in the salon. They heat the wax up to 60 °C. This temperature contributes to steaming the skin, and this will allow you to more efficiently and painlessly remove hair in problem areas - armpits and bikini.

Which procedure to opt for: bioepilation or shugaring?

Sugaring procedure is to remove unwanted hair from the body with the help of sugar paste.

It has much in common with bioepilation, differing only in that the procedures are performed with different mixtures and methods of their application. Sugar paste is applied in the opposite direction of hair growth, and removed - in the direction of hair growth. Waxing is done exactly the opposite.

The sugar paste procedure itself is as follows. Wax or sugar paste is applied to the selected area. Then they wait until the wax or sugar paste hardens and remove the composition along with the hairs that have fallen into them. This removes not only the outer part of the hair, but also its root.

Sugaring is considered the preferred procedure for the bikini area. Firstly, although sugar paste is heated, it is not as strong as wax, so it is impossible to get burned during the procedure. And secondly, sugar paste is hypoallergenic and does not cause skin rashes.

For those who do not yet know which is better to use, bioepilation or shugaring, it is recommended to carry out both procedures to find out. Both procedures achieve the same effect. They are equally painful. The choice of procedure for getting rid of unwanted vegetation on the body is influenced by your individual preferences.

Some people develop allergic reactions to wax, so they prefer to use sugaring, especially since sugar paste is easy to prepare at home, since the necessary components can be found in the kitchen in every home.

You should not be afraid to experiment - this is the only way to select the ideal option.

Bioepilation of hairs on the face

Some representatives of the beautiful half of humanity suffer from a problem associated with the fact that they have a mustache above their upper lip - they are shown to perform upper lip bi-epilation using wax strips. You need to choose a small size strips that are designed to remove hair on small areas of the skin.

The wax strip is warmed up in the hands for 20-30 seconds, and then one part of it is peeled off and pressed against the problem skin. In this case, the strip must be smoothed in the direction of hair growth.

The strip is kept on the skin for no more than 15-20 seconds, and then breaks against the growth of hairs. This must be done quickly and sharply, holding the skin with your free hand - otherwise bruises may remain on the skin.

After the end of bioepilation, redness of the skin persists for some time (minutes and even hours), so it is worth planning the procedure in advance.

Following this simple instruction, you can carry out bioepilation without problems. Fast and effective disposal of unwanted vegetation will make the skin soft and smooth. The effectiveness of the procedure is maintained for 2-4 weeks.

How to use wax to remove excess hair in intimate areas?

People who are not very sensitive to pain can use warm wax to remove unwanted vegetation in the bikini area. The procedure is easy and simple to perform on your own. To do this, you need to buy a wax cassette, a wax device that facilitates the procedure, as well as several paper strips for depilation.

• Before performing the procedure, it is necessary to clean the skin in the bikini area, dry it so that it is completely dry, and apply talcum powder.
• Then the talc is heated in a wax melter to a temperature of 40 °C.
• Wax is applied to the skin using a roller. The composition is applied in the direction of hair growth, trying to capture a small area.
• A strip is applied to the wax, smoothed.
• After 20-30 seconds, the strip breaks off in the direction against hair growth. The movement should be fast and confident, parallel to the skin.
• The procedure is repeated throughout the area.

For those who find the procedure too painful, it is recommended to use hot wax bioepilation of the bikini area.

The procedure differs from the previous one in that the composition has a higher temperature, which warms the skin better, due to which the hairs are better captured and removed better.

When doing bioepilation for the first time, you need to contact the specialists in the salon, who perform it quickly, correctly and efficiently. In subsequent times, you can carry out the procedure yourself.

How long does the effect obtained after bioepilation last?

With the help of the bioepilation procedure, unwanted hairs on the body can be quickly and effectively removed. You need to know how long after the procedure the skin will remain smooth.

Everyone understands that it is impossible to permanently remove hair with the help of wax bioepilation, since the hair follicles remain intact during this procedure. But with the help of wax, the hair is pulled out with the roots, so it does not grow in the same place for a long time.

During which time the hairs will not grow, even the master cannot say for sure, since this is an individual indicator, but not less than two weeks. The maximum time is within a month. If you perform bioepilation regularly, without using other methods in between procedures, for example, shaving problem areas, hair growth slows down, they become thinner and brighter.

How to properly care for the skin after bioepilation?

To maintain the beauty and tenderness of the skin, you need to properly care for it, protecting the skin from the negative effects of depilation as follows:

1. Cleanse and moisturize your skin every day.
2. In order to avoid problems with ingrown hairs, it is recommended to scrub the skin two days after bioepilation. The scrubbing procedure should be repeated at least once a week.
3. If you are allergic to wax, stop using it immediately and consult your doctor.
4. For a successful bioepilation procedure, you need to wait for the hairs to grow to at least 5 mm. An exception to the rule can only be epilation of the upper lip, since with the help of small wax strips, short hairs can also be captured.
5. If the bioepilation procedure seems too painful, you can use pain relief, which is suitable for anesthetics that can be bought at a pharmacy. This is Emla cream, Lidocaine spray.
6. After bioepilation, immediately treat the skin. To do this, use a disinfectant - chlorhexidine, which will prevent infection from entering the open pores of the skin.

This method of hair removal was invented by the Egyptian Queen Nefertiti. She applied a special viscous mass to the body, which solidified, and then fell off along with the hair.
Currently, wax is used as a viscous mass, which explains another name for bioepilation - waxing (from the English wax - wax), or wax depilation.

How do we do bioepilation

We use in our offices, which is the leader in the production of products for depilation. The whole range of products for deep bioepilation with wax is of high quality, easy to use and does not cause allergic reactions.
We use two types of wax: hard (hot) wax and soft (warm).
hard wax it is used on the basis of pine resin or petroleum products so that the mass does not splash and does not stick too much; vegetable or lemon oil is included in its composition. The hot composition is applied to the body at a temperature of 38-42 C in the direction of hair growth. The skin warms up during the procedure, the pores open, and the hair along with the wax is removed quite easily. Thanks to rubber additives, the wax completely repeats the skin relief, so such “difficult” areas as the armpits and the bikini area are available to it.

The basis soft wax - a mixture of pine resin and softeners. Warm waxes are available in roller cassettes or cans. The wax is heated in special heaters and applied along the hair growth, and then removed with a special paper strip against the hair growth. After the procedure, the remnants of warm wax must be removed with a special oil, which at the same time soothes the skin.
After bioepilation, our specialists will offer you procedures that slow down hair growth:
1. Ultrasound - hair removal . The surface of the skin is treated with special compounds, the molecules and ions of which are delivered to the deep dermal layers with the help of ultrasound. Here they inhibit (slow down) the process of germ cell division and even partially disrupt the hair follicle due to the alkaline pH.
2. Lotion with chamomile extract , delaying hair growth. The lotion slows down the process of hair growth due to the substance laurylisokinoline bromide contained in it, which acts selectively on the hair follicle, destroying its cells, thereby increasing the intervals between processes. Enriched with chamomile extract and a moisturizing complex, the lotion also has an antiseptic, softening and moisturizing effect, soothing the skin after depilation.

Bioepilation and waxing: what is the difference?

The process of bioepilation takes place using natural means - wax and resins, which is why the prefix "bio" is present. Beauty salons employ experienced professionals who have professional skills, and they perform bioepilation with warm and hot wax. At home, for depilation, cold wax is used, which is applied to waxed paper tapes. Warmed between the palms, strips of cold wax are glued along the hairline, and removed against the direction of hair growth.

The composition of soft and hard wax used for professional bioepilation includes petroleum products and pine resin. Different oils are added to the desired consistency of the mixture. To obtain a soft wax, honey and beeswax are added to the resin. This mixture relieves irritation well, softens, nourishes, moisturizes the skin after bioepilation.

Hot bioepilation.

Bioepilation with hot material or, as it is also called, hot bioepilation is carried out, as a rule, on more sensitive areas - the face, bikini area, armpits. This method of removing hair in unwanted places is considered the most painless. Under the influence of heat on the skin, the pores open, from which the skin relaxes and becomes less dense, which facilitates the process of removing hair follicles.

Hot wax bioepilation should be carried out only in salons with the help of a knowledgeable professional, otherwise there may be unpleasant consequences - injuries or skin burns, since the temperature of the wax is 38-43 degrees. For hair removal by this method, the most favorable period for a woman is the middle of the menstrual cycle, the time of ovulation, because it is at this time that pain sensitivity decreases in women. Also, these days the hair growth rate is reduced by 30-40%, which is effective in hair removal.

Warm bioepilation.

Warm wax bioepilation, or warm bioepilation, occurs with the help of warm wax, the temperature of which is similar to that of the human body. Wax, placed in a special cartridge, is heated to the required temperature on a specialized stand. After that, wax is applied in the hair growth area on the arms and legs with a special spatula in the direction of hair growth and fabric strips are applied on top of the wax. When the wax hardens, strips with removed hairs are removed with a sharp movement from the surface of the skin against hair growth. The hair is removed along with the hair follicle. After removing the wax from the skin, it is treated with special gels and oils in order to reduce discomfort and eliminate inflammation and rashes. This method of bioepilation is quite painful, but what can not be done for the sake of beauty.

Before bioepilation, it is useful for women to do peeling, after which the hairs at the roots will be raised. It will help make the bioepilation procedure not so painful.

How often should bioepilation be performed?

The disadvantages of bioepilation include not only the pain of the procedure, but also its short-lived effect, because the hairs do not disappear forever. But it should be noted that after each subsequent epilation, hair growth is noticeably reduced. At the same time, the remaining hairs become thinner and more fragile, and this indicates that mechanical damage to the hair follicles occurs during bioepilation. It follows from this that if these procedures are constantly and consistently carried out, then the hair can disappear completely after 1.5 - 2 years. Since bioepilation with wax is carried out once a month, or even more, due to the individual characteristics of the woman's body, and given that the hair length must be at least 5 mm, then 20 sessions will be needed to completely remove the hair.

Bioepilation contraindications:

• infectious diseases;
• chronic skin diseases and acute diseases;
• varicose veins at the site of epilation;
• benign neoplasms (moles, papillomas, warts) at the site of hair removal.

One more type of hair removal should be especially noted - bioepilation of the bikini zone, or “Brazilian bikini”. This procedure, in the full sense of the word, is very unpleasant. And if a woman does not tolerate pain, then you should not take risks, because pain shock can occur during hair removal.
