Electrolysis hair removal involves treating and permanently destroying the part of the folicle responsible for hair growth. 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.
With each treatment, hair regrowth becomes thinner and more fragile. In some cases, two or more treatments to each follicle may be necessary to achieve permanency. Once the dermal papilla has been completely eliminated, further hair growth from the follicle is not possible.

WHAT AREAS CAN BE TREATED?
Most small areas, however we recommend that large areas be treated with our Laser Hair Removal treatments.
CAN ELECTROLYSIS DAMAGE THE SKIN?
Skin will not be damaged in the hands of an experienced, qualified professional. The texture of the skin will be finer and velvety when the pores are no longer held open by the blunt end of the hair.
IS ELECTROLYSIS PAINFUL?
It is normal to feel a slight heat or tingling sensation. Some parts of the body are more sensitive than others but adjustments can be made by the Electrologist to provide a comfortable treatment.
HOW MANY TREATMENTS WILL I NEED?
It is difficult to be specific as to the number of treatments required, as we all have hair growth that is unique to us. Contributing factors are type and extent of hair growth, hormonal balance, skin type and frequency of treatments.
DOES TREATMENT FREQUENCY HAVE A BEARING ON SUCCESS?
It is important to participate in a planned program of electrolysis. This is the optimum time for treatment otherwise the hair will rebuild back to its original strength negating the effectiveness of the original treatment.
IS WORK NOTICEABLE WHILST BEING DONE?
Immediately following a treatment there is normally a slight redness and swelling. This will only last a short time.
