Electrolysis hair removal is a method of removing unwanted hair permanently. Unlike temporary hair removal methods like shaving or waxing, electrolysis targets the hair follicles to inhibit future hair growth.

 

During electrolysis hair removal, a trained professional, typically an electrologist, inserts a tiny, fine needle into each hair follicle individually. The needle delivers a small electric current to the follicle, which damages the cells responsible for hair growth. This process is repeated for each hair follicle in the treatment area.

 

Electrolysis hair removal is a gradual process that requires multiple sessions to achieve desired results. The number of sessions needed depends on various factors, including the size of the treatment area, hair density, and individual hair growth patterns. Each session typically lasts from a few minutes to an hour, depending on the area being treated.
