ELECTROLYSIS

PERMANENT HAIR REMOVAL

What Is Electrolysis?

Electrolysis hair removal is the only method approved by the FDA for Permanent Hair removal. It does require multiple sessions to achieve best possible results.

An electric current is applied with a very fine needle-shaped electrode, or metal probe into each hair follicle to destroy the root. There are three types of electrolysis: galvanic, thermolysis and blend.

  • Stages of growth

growing, resting and shedding. Because all of the hair isn’t on the same stage at any given time, multiple sessions are needed to get the hair in the growth phase for electrolysis hair removal to be most effective- just like laser hair removal.

  • Isn't Laser Hair Removal Permanent?

Some laser centers make it sound that you'll never have to be reunited with your hair again, just by getting the right amount of visits with their machine. As to date, there is no laser equipment that has been approved by the FDA for permanent hair removal. However, the FDA has approved Laser hair removal machines with hair reduction because it can rid hair on the right candidates for long periods of time, with multiple treatments.

  • Electrology has the best track record.

Electrolysis has the best overall results, versus any other method, in ridding hair for long periods of time- or even permanently.

  • Many different hair and skin types can benefit.

Because it doesn’t target hair pigment (color) like laser, but attacks the follicle itself. People that aren’t good candidates for laser can still get electrolysis.
