When it comes to the season of skirts, T-shirts and bikinis, stubble-free and smooth skin is especially sought after, and women once again swap notes on hair removal methods. Whether you opt for laser hair removal, waxing or intense pulsed light (IPL), a number of choices are available in Shanghai.
Laser hair removal
Ma Gang, a doctor from the Department of Laser Medicine at Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital, said that a large number of clients coming to the hospital for hair removal choose laser hair removal. "Compared with other methods like waxing, laser hair removal is a permanent solution," said Ma.
Laser hair removal has been commercially available since the 1990s and is generally considered conventional and safe. Pulses of highly concentrated light destroy hair follicles, preventing regrowth. As hair grows in several stages, multiple sessions are required.
"Different machines lead to different effects, and the more advanced the machine is, the more skilled the operator required," Ma told the Global Times. "An increasing number of beauty parlors plan to appoint experienced doctors from public hospitals as consultants, which will make the practice more widely available."
As an expert in the field of laser hair removal, Ma emphasizes that although laser hair removal is fairly safe, it is more suited for some skin and hair types than others.

What is more, a very small group of people may have an anaphylactic reaction to laser," he said.
Waxing and IPL
Waxing was reportedly invented by the ancient Egyptians and is now increasingly available at spas and salons in Shanghai. Hot wax pulls out the hair right at the root,welcome to Wholesale Cheap Armani T-Shirts online store,Free shipping! so most people don't see regrowth for two to six weeks after treatment. It also pulls out the dead skin on the surface, so after waxing the skin is smooth and soft.
Singaporean chain Strip has four branches in Shanghai and claims to have "pruned and waxed 2 million bushes worldwide" since 2002. "The main customers at Strip are women aged between 25 to 40-plus. Around 70 percent of them are foreigners," said Gu Yanqing, Strip's marketing manger. "There are two major services for individuals to choose from. One is IPL hair removal, the other is waxing. Both of them are popular with our clients."
Gu explained that their treatments lead to semipermanent effects, because most permanent methods do harm to the skin and hair follicles. "IPL is mild and semipermanent, and waxing is convenient for people pursuing immediate effects."

Gu told the Global Times that hot wax helps the hair follicles open while pulling out the hair, however, skin care posttreatment is extremely important. "In order to take care of the skin comprehensively, we ask people who undergo hair removal treatment not to swim or take a hot bath for three days, because it will do harm to their opened hair follicles. What is more, nursing creams are absolutely necessary," she said.
