FAQs
Is electrolysis right for me?
You are not alone in having unwanted hair. Most people have some hair they want to get rid of. Both men and women turn to electrolysis for many different reasons. Luckily, electrolysis can help regardless of age, gender, hair color or skin type.
Is electrolysis safe for my skin and hair type?
Absolutely! Electrolysis is safe for all skin and hair types.
Will electrolysis treatment hurt?
Sensitivity varies greatly from one client to the next. You may experience some discomfort, but only briefly. Communication is important during treatment, and adjustments can be made to ensure that you are comfortable.
Why electrolysis instead of laser hair removal?
Electrolysis is the only FDA approved method of permanent hair removal. While lasers can treat large body areas in relatively short periods of time, they prefer dark and coarse type hair. Lasers are not effective on blond, grey, red or fine hair. Laser therapy only provides “permanent reduction” of hair while electrolysis provides “permanent removal”.
Many laser clients opt for electrolysis to remove stray hairs after laser treatment. Others opt for a combination of electrolysis and laser, depending on their particular needs.
How many treatment sessions will I need?
During your initial free consultation, we will discuss your hair removal goals and cost of treatment. We will also formulate a treatment plan that works for you.
The number of treatments varies and is determined by heredity, medications, hormones and current hair removal methods being used, which may be encouraging hair growth.
