Electrolysis - Hair Removal

Electrolysis is the only medically approved form of permanent hair removal. It is performed by inserting a very fine, flexible needle into the follicle. We then skilfully apply a tiny amount of current to destroy the lower part of the follicle, which gradually stops any more hairs growing from that particular follicle. The destruction is carried out by heat (thermolysis), a chemical reaction (galvanic) or both blended together (blend).

Electrolysis is suitable for both male & female clients, any skin tone & any hair colour. It is great for dealing with white, grey or non-pigmented hairs.

Where can be treated?

Practically any area, apart from the inside of the nose and inner ear (mucous membrane tissue) Common areas are the face, nipples, abdomen, bikini line, fingers and toes. For men, the upper arms, around the ears, top of the nose, top of the back and around the edges of the beard where ingrown hairs are causing problems

How long does it take?

Electrolysis is a process which takes time, due to each hair being dealt with individually but also the individual hair growth cycle. The length and frequency of appointments is different for each client so there is no set answer to how many treatments you will require or how long it will take overall.
