Elimination of hair from the body is either by depilation (the removal of the hair shaft at the skin’s surface), or by epilation (the removal of the entire hair from the “root” or bulb). Depilatory creams and shaving are depilation techniques often performed at home. Dermal planning is a form of depilation performed by a trained technician. Professional hair removal methods such as waxing, sugaring, threading and tweezing are good examples of temporary epilation. Laser hair removal is considered “semi-permanent” epilation because the destruction of the hair bulb may not be achieved in some cases. Electrology is the only permanent epilation method.
