Why Electrolysis?

• Electrolysis is a proven method for safe and permanent hair removal.
• Electrolysis has been used to remove unwanted body hair on both women and men for over 100 years.
• Electrolysis can be used on all parts of the body and face.
• Electrolysis treatments are very affordable for clients. Not everyone can afford a laser.
• A laser does not work on all hair.
• To this day, electrolysis is still the only method proven to be used for permanent hair removal on all types of hair.

Electrolysis
 
Electrology, a technique used for the destruction of unwanted hair follicles, has been in use since 1875. The treatment is delivered through a single, sterile probe that is gently inserted into the hair follicle. You will not feel the insertion.

When the probe reaches the end of the follicle, where the hair root meets the dermal papilla (the blood source to the hair follicle), a small amount of heat is emitted (which feels like a tingle). This heat dehydrates the bulb and basically cauterizes the junction between the hair root and the papilla. Without a blood source, the follicle dies.
 
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recognizes electrology as providing permanent hair removal.  As no other device for hair removal has the unique identification of ìdestroying the dermal papilla of a hair,î only electrologists are allowed to claim permanent hair removal in their advertising. No other hair removal devices, including lasers, have been able to achieve this definition.
 
Although electrolysis does remove hair permanently, the number of treatments varies with each person.  It is very important to adhere to the recommended treatment schedule to achieve optimum results in the shortest period of time. While electrolysis is not totally comfortable, it is impossible to destroy hair-growth tissue without any sensation. Most people find the brief sensation of heat to be quite tolerable.
 
Hirsutism, or the growth of excess hair, is caused by hormone changes. Excess levels of androgens (i.e., testosterone) vary throughout your life, but are more prevalent during puberty, pregnancy and menopause.

Medications, obesity and illness may also cause hirsutism and may require a physician's intervention. Electrolysis is necessary to permanently remove a hair that has been activated, it will not go away on its own.
