Effectiveness of Light-Emitting Diode Epilation on Different Skin Types: A Pilot Study.

This study analyzed the histological and immunohistochemical changes in hair follicles submitted to epilation with light-emitting diode (LED). The use of specific wavelengths of LED leads to the absorption of photons by chromophore tissues, enabling different photophysical and photochemical events, bringing therapeutic benefits such as removing body hair. The sample included five participants, with phototypes II-V, divided into two groups.
