Electrolysis

Permanent Hair Removal

What is Electrolysis?

Electrolysis is a hair removal treatment. A trained electrologist inserts a thin wire into the hair follicle under the surface of the skin. An electric current moves down the wire to the bottom of the follicle, destroying the hair root. The follicle damage prevents hair from growing and causes the existing hair to fall out. 

Electrolysis is the only method approved by the FDA for permanent removal for unwanted hair. As the hair is treated, regrowth is prevented rather than just temporarily removal. Only electrolysis provides both hair removal and hair elimination for every skin type and color, hair type, and almost all areas of the body.

Commonly Treated Areas: 

Chin 

Jawline

 Eyebrows

 Neck 

Sides of the Face

 Underarms 

Upper Lip

Causes of Hair Growth

  • Typical hair growth is caused by irritation or anything that draws blood circulation to the skins surface, (e.g. rubbing, waxing, tweezing.)

  • Systemic hair growth is internal or a hormonal imbalance due to medications or disease.

  • Genetic hair growth is an excess hair trait which is inherited.

FAQ

    Laser hair removal is a form of hair reduction. It doesn't completely removal all of the hairs in the treated area, but can soften or lighten the hair. The laser can also put a big percentage of the hairs into a dormant stage of hair growth, which mean the hairs will not grow unless they have a hormonal change. A hormonal change such as changing or starting birth control, pregancy, menopause or even a menstrual cycle can start the hair growth process again . This is a great option for large and/or dense areas of the body. Laser hair removal can only be done on hairs with pigment.
