electrolysis

A very fine filament is inserted in the hair follicle opening and guided to the bottom of the hair follicle where the papilla is located. Once in position, a small amount of current is applied. This action cauterizes the papilla and makes it permanently unable to regenerate hair.

For the first 24 hours after your treatment, try to avoid activities that may irritate the hair follicles, including:

• Anything that causes sweating.
• Tanning.
• Staying out in the sun.
• Applying makeup.

Timing is everything. In order for the hair to be permanently removed, it must be treated while the hair is still attached to the dermal papilla. This occurs in the anagen stage of the hair growth cycle.

• Galvanic: This process produces a chemical reaction within the hair follicle. 
  
  
• High Frequency (Thermolysis): This process produces a heat reaction within the hair follicle.
  
  
• Blend: This process is a combination of both galvanic and high frequency.

We use all types of electrolysis. After the consultation, we will recommend which method(s) are best suited to your the treatment plan.
