Electrodepilator 400 for permanent hair removal with thermolytic method

The 400 electrodepilator is a device for permanent hair removal using the thermolytic method. Through the introduction of a needle, with radiofrequency current, in the hair follicle, heating is caused and the consequent coagulation of the papilla. Integrated with high-reliability electronic components, continuously adjustable RF intensity and operating indicator light.

It comes complete with foot pedal, hair removal handpiece, hair removal needle with power cord (2m).

One of the methods used in needle hair removers consists in the delivery of radiofrequency current to obtain heating and the consequent coagulation of the papilla achieved through the introduction of the needle into the hair follicle. The success of the operation depends on the life status of the treated hair, i.e. whether it is in the growth phase (anagen), maturity (telegenic) or atrophy (catagenous). The best results are obtained on hairs treated in the anagen phase.

The delivery time of the radiofrequency is generally proportional to the power emitted and can vary from a tenth of a second in "flash" hair removers to a few seconds in traditional hair removers, in which the time is adjusted according to the pressure of the pedal or by timers not regulated by well-defined times.

The Depilator 400 device allows the emission of radio frequency in manual mode without predetermining the emission time. During use, the delivery of the radio frequency takes place at each operation of the pedal with an emission duration equal to the time in which the pedal is kept pressed. The device has a maximum power of 7 Watts measured on a load of 500 Ohms.

The Depilator 400 is an electrical appliance for aesthetic use and is made according to CEI62-39 standards.

Application technique:
Permanent hair removal is achieved by destroying the germ cells of the hair. These cells are located in the hair bulb. Experimental research, however, has shown that, while eliminating the bulb, some cells of the portion of the hair follicle below the outlets of the sebaceous glands can take on regenerative capacity and thus give rise to a new hair complete with papilla. Hair removal is certainly definitive when these cells are also destroyed.

The technique consists in introducing the tip of the needle electrode into the follicle until a slight resistance is encountered due not, as may be supposed, to reaching the bulb, but to reaching that part of the follicle located below the outlet of the sebaceous gland which, adhering intimately with the hair in all its extension, both in correspondence with the epithelial sheaths and in the papilla, does not allow further sliding of the needle.

The introduction of the needle electrode tip into the most superficial portion of the follicle facilitated by the distension or plication of the skin, must be atraumatic (without pain and bleeding!). The direction to be given to the needle is the same as the first stretch of hair that comes out of the follicular ostium. The operator, after reaching the area of slight resistance with the needle, presses on the pedal and at the same time sinks the needle 1, 2 0 3 mm until it reaches the bulb, thus destroying all the determining cells of the hair. The depth of penetration of the needle is estimated after checking the extraction of the first hairs. With this movement, from the surface to the depths, you also avoid those epidermal damage that can be from too superficial discharges.

A single discharge with a moving needle electrode is sufficient for the elimination of hair and fine hairs, for more evident hairs a second discharge is necessary which is generated after withdrawing the needle a little, and directly above the bulb (between this and the outlet of the sebaceous gland). During this second discharge, which completes the destruction of all germ cells, the operator keeps the needle electrode motionless. The treated hair is removed with tweezers and must not offer a detectable resistance to extraction. If he resists, the intervention must be repeated with greater precision.

Physiology of the hair:
Before a treatment, the operator should explain to the client the different stages of hair growth and the need to re-operate in the same area even if it has been totally shaved, going over it again until all the follicles from which the terminal hairs come out are treated.

Particular attention must be paid to avoiding too superficial discharges that can damage the epidermis, especially where the follicles are very short and innervated as in the upper lip.

A technique that gives good results consists in dividing the lip area into three parts: a central one and two lateral ones that are shaved by partially thinning them out and in successive sessions.

The same technique can be used for eyelash or eyebrow hair removal.

Facial hair removal:
It is performed in weekly or biweekly sessions during which 50, 100 or more hairs are removed. If necessary, all the hairs present can be removed in a single session, even if they are very close to each other or even contiguous.

The cheeks, upper lip, chin, neck can be shaved, the hairline can be modified, the eyelid margin can be shaved in case of districchiasis, as well as the area between the two eyebrows. In men, this hair removal is quite frequent, as well as the depilation of the zygomatic regions and in some regions of the neck where the hairs tend to ingrow.

Body hair removal:
Many regions of the body can be permanently shaved away, such as the periaureolar and mammary regions, the abdominal region, the pubis-inguinal region, the dorsal region, the lower and upper limbs including the axillary regions.

In areas where the hair to be removed is very concentrated, such as in the pubis-inguinal and axillary regions, the thinning technique is recommended in subsequent sessions. In the treatment of the groin, the operator delimits the area to be depilated having as a reference a very high-cut panty of the client and proceed with the complete depilation of the area that comes out of the edge of the brief. This hair removal will have to be repeated another 2 or 3 times after 2/3 months to remove even hairs that were growing in the first treatments.
