What is Electrology?
Can hair be removed from anywhere on the body?
Hair can be safely eliminated from many areas on the body. The most popular areas are eyebrows, upper and lower lip, chin, neck, sideburns, breasts, stomach, bikini line, feet, toes, hands, fingers, underarms, forearms, shoulders, back and legs.
Is electrolysis uncomfortable?
The split-second sensation is less than tweezing or waxing. You can hardly tell the probe tip is being inserted. The tiny current destroys the hair root.
What if hair seems to return while I'm being treated?
Your own previous attempt to remove hair will be the reason for this, as hair usually takes one
to fourteen weeks to regrow. The growth will be hair that had not yet appeared when you started treatment. |
Recently I have read about "alternative" hair removal machines and methods. Are they safe? Are they effective? Electrolysis is the ONLY PERMANENT HAIR REMOVAL METHOD available today. Beware the clever and not so cleaver claims of would-be competitors. The FDA has restricted laser manufacturers of making any claims of permanent hair removal. Also, lasers seem to be no more effective than waxing, bleaching, shaving or plucking. |
How about healing? Healing after electrolysis is generally rapid, with no signs of the treatment remaining on your skin. |
