Abstract
A method of removing multiple hairs and inhibiting future hair growth includes the steps of applying a conductive solution to the hair, applying power for a period of time sufficient to destroy the matrix area of the hair, and allowing the treated hair to either be removed immediately or to stay in the skin for a period of time sufficient for the chemical reaction induced at the matrix area to continue long enough to destroy the matrix area and prevent regrowth of the hair. The power may be applied through a conductive element of a comb. The comb is configured for carrying out the method. The comb may be provided with a moveable clamp for treating hair. The movable clamp may likewise be used to grasp and to remove treated hair when the grasped/clamped treated hair is moved relative to the skin by movement of the comb.
