Electrolysis

Electrolysis removes individual hairs from the face or body. Chemical or heat energy destroys the growth centre of the hair which is then completely removed via tweezers after a fine probe is inserted into the hair follicle. Electrolysis is not limited to the face as most areas of the body can be treated. The number of treatments needed to permanently remove the hair varies with most patients requiring treatments once a week or fortnightly until completion. Practitioners issue post-treatment advice in order to eliminate scarring and therefore it is vital that practitioners have adequate insurance in place for this.
