5. Treatment: Epilator

An epilator is a hand-held device for removing hair. It grabs hairs and pulls them out at the roots without irritating skin around the hair follicles. Epilators produce smooth skin and the results last longer than shaving, but they can be uncomfortable or painful to use. Using numbing cream or selecting an epilator that works on wet skin can make the process more comfortable. A professional waxing procedure before beginning to use an epilator can also ease the transition.
