ABSTRACT:
There is described a method of epilation using an insulated probe connected to an epilator apparatus supplying multiple pulses of energy that created concentrated heat at the probe tip. The steps of the method comprise inserting the probe tip into the hair follicle; positioning the probe tip at a position corresponding to either the bulb or the bulge; activating the apparatus to generate heat at the probe tip using predefined settings; and displacing the probe tip from the position to the other of the bulb and the bulge with continuous generation of heat using the multiple pulses of energy at the probe tip.
