Frequently asked questions.
WHAT IS ELECTROLYSIS?
Electrolysis is the only FDA approved form of permanent hair removal. A trained Licensed Electrologist inserts a thin probe which is the size of the hair into the natural opening of the hair follicle, then a current is sent to the cells that are responsible for hair growth destroying them; therefore, inhibiting growth. Lastly tweezers are used to remove the hair with no resistance . Electrolysis has been around since the 1800’s .
IS ELECTROLYSIS REALLY PERMANENT?
YES. Electrolysis is the Only method of hair removal that can get rid of every hair.
DOES ELECTROLYSIS HURT?
Yes, but it is very tolerable . Some people describe the pain as a heat sensation , pinch or a quick zap. Many people say that electrolysis hurts less than waxing and threading. Using certain topical creams or changing settings and using different probes can make the treatment more comfortable for the client . Being hydrated helps us to be able to release the hairs easier with a lower setting .
