Designed to remove your hair permanently*
If you have unwanted hair in unwanted places, electrolysis is a treatment that can remove hair for good, wherever it is on your body and/or face. Electrolysis is often used in conjunction with laser hair removal, as it can remove white hair that cannot be treated with IPL alone. If you have hirsutism, this could be the perfect treatment for you. Or maybe you’re just fed up of shaving or waxing your legs, bikini area or underarms! Electrolysis is a cost-effective treatment, that can save you from the ongoing costs of shaving, waxing or threading.

The effects
Electrolysis is a treatment designed for the permanent removal of hair from the body and/or face. It takes a series of treatments to work that vary from person to person.*
The science
Believe it or not, electrolysis was invented in 1875 by Dr. Charles Michel. He used electrolysis to remove irritating ingrown eyelash hairs. Now, with over a century of well proven safety and effectiveness, today’s electrolysis remains the only permanent hair removal procedure that is recognized by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration). To rid the hair, a very fine flexible sterile probe is inserted into the hair follicle (the tiny, natural opening out of which the hair grows). Once the probe is inserted properly down into the follicle, a burst of specifically timed and measured current is discharged to destroy hair cells. The probe is then withdrawn and the hair is lifted out of the follicle with a sterile tweezer. The goal of electrolysis is to damage the follicle to the point that it should no longer be able to produce a hair. This requires each hair being treated multiple times.*
