Electrolysis Benefits
This revolutionary treatment has many benefits and can address a variety of skin concerns, including:
Why Choose Electrolysis
1. Only FDA-Approved Permanent Solution: It is the only treatment legally cleared by the FDA to be marketed as "permanent hair removal," whereas laser is only cleared for "permanent hair reduction."
2. Effective on Every Hair Color: It works perfectly on blonde, red, gray, and white hairs—all of which are invisible to traditional laser technology.
3. Safe for All Skin Tones: Since it targets the follicle directly with a sterile probe rather than using light to target pigment, there is zero risk of the burns or dark spots (hyperpigmentation) that can occur with laser on deeper skin tones.
4. Unmatched Precision: Treating one hair at a time allows for extreme accuracy in delicate areas like the eyebrows, upper lip, or when clearing single, stray hairs.
5. The Final Answer for Hormonal Hair: It is the most reliable method for treating stubborn, aggressive hair growth caused by PCOS or other hormonal shifts that often resist other treatments.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Electrolysis is the only hair removal method recognized by the FDA as 100% permanent. Unlike laser, which "reduces" hair growth, electrolysis destroys the follicle's ability to ever grow hair again.
Because hair grows in different cycles, multiple sessions are required to catch every hair in its active growth phase. The total number of treatments varies depending on the area being cleared and the thickness of the hair.
Most clients describe the sensation as a quick "tingle" or a brief heat sensation. Modern technology has made the process much more comfortable than in the past, and we can adjust the settings to match your personal comfort level.
The number of sessions required will vary depending on your individual needs and goals. Your therapist will be able to provide a personalized treatment plan.
