Electrolysis
Electrolysis
Unwanted hair is a common problem affecting most people to varying degrees throughout their lives and prompting the use of various temporary methods of hair reduction or hair management systems. However electrolysis is still the only proven, permanent method of hair removal and many women and indeed many men, have benefited from this tried and trusted treatment.
Electrolysis today is more gentle, more comfortable and more affective, offering an affordable modern treatment which is becoming increasingly popular.
What is Electrolysis?
Electrolysis is a safe, effective, progressively permanent method of removing unwanted hair.
How does Electrolysis work?
A tiny probe (about the size of an eyelash) is inserted into the hair follicle where a short burst of energy is targeted at the root of the hair. This burst of energy prevents nutrients feeding the follicle and the new hair growth becomes weaker and finer.
After a course of treatments the follicle is no longer able to produce new hairs and complete hair free results are obtained. Each hair follicle requires a number of treatments because each follicle has its own growing cycle. Electrolysis works by weakening the hair follicle and eventually destroying its ability to produce hairs.
What will happen during the first appointment?
You will have a consultation to determine if treatment is suitable for you. You will have an opportunity to ask questions about the treatment and to experience a ‘taster’ session plus your treatment plan will be discussed.
What about hygiene?
Sterex single use, disposable probes are used to totally eliminate any risk of cross infection. For each client a brand new sterile probe is used and you will usually see the individually packed sterile probe being opened in front of you.
