Basically, the electrologist directs a tiny, split-second impulse down to the hair root.

Every part of the body except inside the nose and the ears. In fact, electrolysis is so cost-effective  procedure, that relatively large areas of the body, such as areas of the hack, arms and legs, may be treated within limits of time and budget.

No, a very special type of probe, developed specifically for electrolysis is used. There is no sharp piercing tip.

At most, a warm then tingling sensation. You can hardly tell the probe tip is being inserted. The tiny current destroys the hair root. Prescription creams are available and will provide virtually no sensation at all.

Yes. Foremost medical authorities agree that electrolysis is the only positive and permanent way to remove hair.

Usually it can be traced to hereditary or glandular disturbance. Some types of illnesses, operations and medication may also be factors.

Your own previous attempts to remove hair may be the reason for this, as hair usually takes one to fourteen weeks to regrow. The growth may be hair that had not yet appeared when you started treatment. But electrolysis will remove it. Permanently. Also a hair that has been waxed or tweezed may not have a straight growth down to the root. Several treatments may be necessary to successfully destroy a distorted root.

You can safely cut hairs in or near the area being treated. But leave enough hair for your electrologist to treat and remove. Do not tweeze, wax, or use depilatories or bleach

Hairs have different growth cycles. Your hair follicle produces hair and discards it through shedding. This hair production cycle is a process of growth, rest and replacement. Individual hairs are in different phases of this cycle. More than one treatment catches the hairs at the right point in the cycle to destroy them.

That depends on individual growths. If they are heavy, your electrologist will. probably recommend a series of treatments. But they are over so quickly, you can have them done on your lunch hour.

Healing after electrolysis is generally rapid, with no signs of the treatment remaining on your skin. Occasionally, you may have temporary redness, but it will quickly disappear with your own after-treatment, as directed by your electrologist.

Any age is right. Of course we recommend that in the cases of pre-teens and individuals over 65, a physician should be consulted before treatment begins.

As compared with many other beauty treatments, the cost is moderate. It's a small price to pay for a lifetime of freedom from unwanted hair. Don't you think you owe it to yourself to look into electrolysis now?

Electrolysis treatments are equally effective on men and women. For as long as electrolysis records have been kept, men as well as women have sought out the services of professional electrologists.
