KOMPAS.com – Selain wajah, rambut, dan kulit, ketiak turut memengaruhi kepercayaan diri perempuan. Berdasarkan riset terhadap 100 perempuan usia 18-35 tahun di 10 kota besar Indonesia pada 2019, 54 persen di antaranya sepakat bahwa kondisi ketiak berpengaruh terhadap self-esteem mereka.

Kemudian, 56 persen responden menyebut bahwa kondisi ketiak cerah dapat meningkatkan kepercayaan diri. Dari skala 1-10, kenaikan kepercayaan diri yang dirasakan mencapai lima poin.

Karena itu, banyak perempuan melakukan perawatan pada ketiak, seperti memotong rambut di bagian tersebut. Selain meningkatkan kepercayaan diri, perawatan tersebut juga memberikan sejumlah manfaat.

Pertama, melembutkan kulit ketiak. Kedua, membantu mengurangi bau badan di area ketiak. Ketiga, mengurangi kulit gelap di area ketiak.

TreatmentIPL

Di antara berbagai perawatan, intense pulsed light (IPL) bisa menjadi pilihan untuk memotong rambut ketiak. Dilansir dari self.com, Rabu (5/4/2023), teknologi ini bekerja dengan memancarkan beberapa tipe gelombang cahaya, seperti merah, kuning, hijau, serta infrared, yang ditargetkan pada melanin dan hemoglobin di kulit. Karena itu, IPL dapat menghilangkan rambut ketiak.

Dengan memaparkan gelombang cahaya tersebut, pigmen yang berada pada folikel rambut dapat terangkat. Dengan demikian, akar rambut dapat rusak serta pertumbuhan rambut akan terhambat secara perlahan dan bertahap.

Berbeda dengan waxing, treatment dengan IPL tidak menimbulkan rasa sakit. Hasil yang didapat pun lebih maksimal. Sebab, ketika tumbuh lagi, rambut ketiak jadi lebih halus dan jarang, serta tidak kaku dan kasar, seperti hasil waxing.

Meski demikian, Anda yang menginginkan perawatan tersebut perlu mengetahui langkah-langkah pengerjaannya.

Di Eva Mulia Clinic, misalnya, treatment IPL akan diawali dengan berkonsultasi kepada dokter. Lalu, Anda diminta masuk ke ruang tindakan.

Setelah itu, bagian ketiak akan dibersihkan dan rambut dicukur terlebih dahulu. Kemudian, ketiak akan dioleskan gel untuk memberikan sensasi dingin dan nyaman.

Selanjutnya, tindakan penyinaran dengan IPL dilakukan. Setelah selesai, ketiak akan dibersihkan dan dikompres dengan handuk dingin.

Untuk mendapatkan hasil maksimal, Anda perlu memperhatikan beberapa hal. Pertama, pastikan ketiak dalam kondisi lembap sebelum treatment. Kedua, kompres ketiak dengan handuk dingin bila terjadi kemerahan pasca-treatment. Ketiga, jangan gunakan sabun yang mengandung scrub.

Keempat, gunakan air dingin saat mandi. Kelima, disarankan untuk mencukur rambut ketiak selama proses rontok. Terakhir, hindari berenang, olahraga, dan pemakaian deodoran selama 48 jam pasca-treatment.

Adapun treatment tersebut dapat dilakukan seminggu sekali selama satu bulan. Setelah itu, dapat diulang sebulan sekali untuk perawatan. Hasil treatment setiap orang dapat berbeda, tergantung dengan jenis pertumbuhan rambutnya.

Sebagai informasi treatment hair removal underarms menggunakan IPL di Eva Mulia Clinic dapat dilakukan di cabang Jakarta, Tangerang, dan Bekasi.
