Electrolysis Hair Removal

Electrolysis removes hair from the face or body. Modern medical electrolysis destroys the hair growth center using heat or chemical energy. The hair is tweezed out of the follicle after a small probe is introduced. Electrolysis may be used on most body parts, including the brows, face, belly, thighs, breasts, and legs. There are no long-term negative effects, however a transient reddening of the skin is possible. Long-term hair removal procedures include laser and electrolysis. Both target hair follicles under the skin's surface.

Electrolysis Hair Removal Q & A

What happens during electrolysis?

Electrologists often use an extremely thin probe (even finer than one single hair) for the procedure. This probe is then inserted into the hair follicle’s opening and a small current is administered, which destroys the hair growth cells. It is normal to feel a slight pinch or some heat for a brief moment when the probe enters the skin.

What is Electrolysis?

Electrolysis is a treatment approach for permanent and painless hair removal. During the procedure, a very thin wire is inserted into the hair follicles underneath the skin surface. A small current then travels down the length of the wire and destroys the hair root. This damage to the hair follicle inhibits the growth of new hair roots, and the existing hair soon begins to fall out.

Electrolysis for hair removal isn’t a new concept and has actually been around for more than 100 years. It was invented to combat ingrown eyelash hairs and has been in use ever since. Today, there exists only one FDA-approved method for permanent hair removal, and that’s Electrolysis!

What causes unwanted hair growth?

Excessive hair growth can be caused by a variety of different factors, such as:

Heredity factors (The amount and thickness of your body hair are heavily influenced by genetics).

Hormone prevalence, such as high androgen levels(male hormones).

Certain drugs, such as some steroids.

Certain medical conditions, such as polycystic ovary syndrome.

What device is used during electrolysis?

The devices used are called epilators, which use electric currents to destroy growth centers in the hair follicle.

How many electrolysis treatments will I need?

Usually, several electrolysis appointments are required to achieve the best results. The number of required treatment sessions differs from person to person and depends on many factors such as hair coarseness and body region. Typically, appointments are needed every week or every other week, and this cycle can go on for up to a year and a half.

Treatment duration is dependent on several factors such as the body region and hair type. Larger areas or regions with very thick or coarse hair will require more treatments.

Why do I need so many electrolysis treatments?

Hair goes through many different growth cycles. Hair follicles create hair and later discard it via shedding, creating a cycle of growth, rest, and replacement. Each individual hair can be in a different cycle stage at any given moment, and so it’s important to get multiple treatments to ensure that every single gets caught and destroyed.

How long does electrolysis treatment last?

How long does electrolysis treatment last?

The duration for one electrolysis treatment session can be from anywhere between 15 minutes to an hour.

What do I need to know after the procedure?

For the initial 24 hours post-treatment, it is advisable to avoid activities that put you at risk of hair follicle irritation, such as:

Sweat inducing activities.

Tanning

Exposing the treated area to the sun.

Applying cosmetics or makeup.

RISKS / BENEFITS

What advantages does electrolysis have?

After completing electrolysis treatments, many people experience permanent hair removal from the treated area. Another benefit of electrolysis is that it is suitable for many body regions and skin types. It can be used to safely and permanently remove hair from sensitive areas of the body, such as the face, armpits, or bikini line. One disadvantage of electrolysis is that it is a lengthy procedure that requires many sessions to achieve the desired results.

Does electrolysis come with any risks or complications?

In general, Electrolysis is considered to be a very safe and effective hair removal procedure. There are some rare chances of infection (in case an unsterile probe is used) or scarring (which may happen if electrolysis is carried out incorrectly). However, it’s important to remember that these risks are very low and you won’t run into any issues if you get the procedure done by a professional and reputable electrolysis practice.

There may be some slight skin redness during and after the treatment, which is normal and subsides easily.

Electrolysis treatments

People with deeper skin tones may temporarily get some dark spots on their skin, which fade away over time, and so bleach should not be used to treat them.

Will electrolysis leave any scars?

There have been no reports of Scarring after electrolysis treatments.

Is the electrolysis procedure painful?

Electrolysis is generally a pain-free procedure and does not cause a lot of discomforts. There is usually just a slight tingling sensation with a bit of heat. However, if you have concerns about pain and discomfort, you can talk to your electrologist about using a topical anesthetic (numbing cream) during the procedure.

RECOVERY AND OUTLOOK

RECOVERY AND OUTLOOK

What is the recovery time after electrolysis?

Everyday activities can safely be resumed almost immediately after treatment.

Are electrolysis results permanent?

Yes, electrolysis is a safe approach for permanent hair removal and suits many skin regions, types, and tones. Additionally, it is the only hair removal treatment to be awarded approval from the FDA. Electrolysis permanently destroys growth cells in the hair follicles, thus ensuring that there won’t be any further hair growth.

StaffFAQs

For Electrolysis Hair Removal

In 1885, Dr. Charles E. Michel, an ophthalmologist in St. Louis, Missouri, developed a trichiasis technique. He uses the current generated by the battery to make permanent hair removal possible. Michel dermatologist and colleague Dr. William Hardaway started using this technology to treat female facial hair problems. That was the start of electrolysis, which has become the only medically recognized and proven method for permanent hair removal.

Shaving, waxing, tweezing, and hair removal may work in a short time, but all of these are temporary solutions.

Electrolysis involves inserting sterile filaments into the skin's natural hair follicles without the filaments piercing the skin. Three electrolysis methods get used in electrochemistry: electric current, pyrolysis, and mixing.

Galvanic couples use galvanizing current and moisture within your skin to produce lye, which damages hair papilla. The current method allows the use of multiple needles.

Thermal decomposition only uses a needle and should not be confused with electrolysis. It uses alternating current to generate heat and damage the nipples of the hair. The latest pyrolysis method is called SIMPLE.

Blending combines current and thermal decomposition methods. Thermal decomposition heats sodium hydroxide to help damage the nipples of the hair.

Through these three methods, after removing the needle, the treated hair can get pulled out. Typically, electrolysis must undergo a certain period of treatment to be effective. Once the regenerated hair cells get entirely removed, the hair cannot grow again. The result is permanent hair removal.

Hair can get removed from any part of the inside of the ears and nose, and the treatment should only cause mild discomfort. Electronic physicians will ensure the comfort and safety of patients. When the multi-needle mixing method gets used, the filament gets sterilized. When the single-needle mixing method gets used, it gets discarded.

In our society, there are many benefits to being an attractive person. Appearance is an essential aspect of communication in corporate and social events. By following the prescribed series of treatments, you can achieve the hairless appearance you dream of without these razors or harsh chemicals.

Biologists tell us that human hair is a decoration that helps to improve appearance. However, too much hair in unacceptable places in society can cause deep-rooted psychological distress. The use of hair removal can significantly improve the beauty effect and be the key to improving people's health.

Hair removal can get divided into two categories: temporary hair removal and permanent hair removal. Temporary hair removal includes procedures such as tweezers, waxing, shaving, and chemical hair removal. For example, some tangled hair protruding from the eyebrows is not uncommon and completely normal. However, some women do experience hormonal changes, which can lead to excess hair. This imbalance may be temporary, such as during adolescence and menopause, or maybe a more serious long-term problem.

If you have recently noticed a significant change in the amount or style of facial hair and body hair, it is best to see a doctor.

Usually, as men mature, they also experience hair growth, which they do not want to see, such as thick eyebrows, increased chest hair, or long black hair on the ears. That is not considered a symptom of abnormality or hormonal imbalance but seems to be a natural phenomenon caused by genetics.

In all cases, unwanted hair can get safely and comfortably removed permanently by electrolysis.

Yes! The medical community has long recognized electrolysis as an effective and safe method for permanent hair removal. Permanent hair removal can only get achieved by carefully destroying the hair follicles and those cells responsible for hair growth. Therefore, it should only be performed in a professional environment by well-trained electronics experts. Don't hesitate to ask your family, doctor. Their doctors have referred to many patients.

The staff is well-trained, skilled, and professional electronic scientists. Insert the epilator (a modern electronic device with a thin wire) carefully into the hair follicle. The epilator was designed to recognize insertion and has gotten programmed to automatically provide a precise amount of current for the programmed time length. This method is called low current hair removal. The amount of current is minimal, and ordinary patients describe the treatment as relatively comfortable.

Yes. Only those follicles with active hair and visible on the skin surface can get treated. At any given point in time, a certain percentage of hair follicles are in a static state and may have lost hair. After the resting period is over, the follicles resume their natural growth stage. New hairs appear on the skin surface.

Except inside the nose and the ears, it can treat most parts of the body. Both men and women took advantage of this service and got relief from unwanted hair.

It depends on the individual. The number of hairs and the tightness of hair growth must get considered. It usually gets recommended to carry out a series of treatments in each treatment course to reduce or reduce growth density.

The treatment is done by a well-trained professional electrician who uses a new type of multi-filament, microprocessor-controlled low-current galvanic epilator. For a long time, scientists and doctors have realized that electric current is superior to other hair removal methods. When discussing combining new technologies in the electronics industry and well-conceived clinical procedures, the current modern method is the most effective, most comfortable, and safest way to achieve permanent hair removal.
