Unwanted hair can be distressing for many people. 80% of both men and women suffer with problems when it comes to thick stubborn hairs. Many factors can cause unwanted hair such as puberty, pregnancy, hormonal imbalances, illness and genetics.

How does Electrolysis work?
A very fine probe is inserted into the hair follicle alongside the hair. Once the probe is correctly in position a mild current is applied for around 2 seconds creating heat in the area. The heat destroys the living cells and cuts off the current blood supply to the root of the dermal papillar. This allows the hair to be taken out of the hair shaft. Thinning the hair each time the root is destroyed.

How often will I need this treatment?
Treatment on each area depends on many different factors of each individual person. Although the recommended time frame between each session is 7-14 days. Stronger hairs may require more treatments than finer hairs. Although electrolysis is classed as a permanent removal of hair the result is achieved over a period of time.

Does it hurt?
While the current is being applied you can feel a sensation or warmth to the area. The level of which the heat is turned up to depends on the nerve response of each person. The current must be turned up high enough to achieve maximum results.
