Electrolysis hair removal is a permanent hair removal method that uses a small electrical current to damage the hair follicle, preventing future hair growth.
How it works:
1. A fine instrument (called a filament or electrode) is inserted into the hair follicle.
2. A small electrical current is applied, damaging the follicle's ability to regenerate hair.
3. Over time, the treated follicles become inactive.
The FDA considers this a permanent solution, and it is suitable for all skin and hair types.
Note: Electrolysis requires multiple sessions, as each hair follicle must be treated individually. A trained electrologist performs the procedure, and the number of sessions varies depending on the individual's hair growth and treatment area.
