Until recently, previously applied methods to remove hair have ultimately proven ineffective or resulted in the formation of scars and small wounds. Different methods for removing hair in a more or less permanent way have been used: electrolysis, thermolysis and the blend method. In this study we describe the removal of hair without side-effects by means of non-laser incoherent emitted light, produced by the ILS flashlamp. In a multicenter study we treated 40 women with a median age of 38.6 years with hirsute hair growth of different hair colours on the upper lip and chin. In general 76.7% of the hair was removed within 6 treatments, with an average fluence of 38.7 J/cm2 and a mean wavelength of 585 nm per patient. A correlation was found between the percentage reduction of hairs and the number of treatments and between hair removal and needle epilation before treatment. Furthermore, a correlation was seen between hair reduction and wavelengths of 570 nm and 550 nm. No association was found between hair removal and clinical data of the patients, nor between hair reduction and technical data of the device. This study presents a new alternative for hair removal.
直到最近，以前应用的脱毛方法最终都被证明是无效的，或者会导致疤痕和小伤口的形成。人们已经使用了或多或少能实现永久性脱毛的不同方法：电解法、热解法和混合法。在本研究中，我们描述了借助ILS闪光灯产生的非激光非相干发射光进行无副作用的脱毛方法。在一项多中心研究中，我们对40名年龄中位数为38.6岁、上唇和下巴有不同毛色多毛症的女性进行了治疗。总体而言，在6次治疗内76.7%的毛发被去除，每位患者的平均能量密度为38.7 J/cm²，平均波长为585 nm。发现毛发减少的百分比与治疗次数之间以及脱毛与治疗前的剃毛之间存在相关性。此外，在毛发减少与570 nm和550 nm的波长之间也观察到相关性。未发现脱毛与患者的临床数据之间以及毛发减少与设备的技术数据之间存在关联。本研究提出了一种新的脱毛替代方法。
