For the device intended to permanently remove one hair at a time, see Electric tweezers. Closeup of the head of an epilator. An epilator is an electrical device used to remove hair by mechanically grasping multiple hairs simultaneously and pulling them out. The way in which epilators pull out hair is similar to waxing, although unlike waxing, they do not remove cells from the epithelium of the epidermis. Aside from the spring in early spring-type epilators, there are no parts in epilators that require regular replacement.
Useful during oral or periodontal surgery, resorbable membranes are placed in the surgical site to prevent epithelium from growing into the healing site before bone and other desired tissues can form. Also known as resorbable barrier membranes, they are made from either collagen or synthetic materials. Because they are resorbable, these membranes naturally break down during the healing process and do not need to be removed. This eliminates the need for a follow-up procedure and reduces the chance of infection at the surgical site. Products (15)
