Electrolysis hair removal

Permanent hair reduction with electrolysis

Electrolysis hair removal is the process of removing hair permanently by means of electricity. 

Electrolysis can treat all hair colours and skin types with precision and minimal side effects, making it a reliable and effective method of hair removal.

The treatment destroys hair at the root using a very fine probe inserted into the hair follicle.

The hair follicle is a tube-like depression of the skin that contains each hair. The dermal papilla is actually a part of the follicle and controls the growth and development of the hair. 

Tweezing or waxing will remove the hair shaft but the dermal papilla still remains. 

A fine probe follows the hair shaft to the dermal papilla; at the same time a special type of electrical current destroys the papilla. The loosened hair shaft is then removed.

Each hair is removed one-by-one so it’s a precise hair removal treatment option for small areas like the chin, face, eyebrows, bikini line, snail trail, arms, back or chest.

Regrowth hair becomes thinner and more fragile with each treatment, with two or more treatments required to eliminate the dermal papilla.
