electrolysis

consultation - permanent hair removal

Fed up with hairs popping up in areas they shouldn’t? Want to avoid the monthly wax appointment?

 

Electrolysis is your answer!

 

This treatment permanently destroys hair at the root, so you never need to worry about them again.

 

Does it hurt? No. The treatment involves inserting a probe into the hair follicle and the size of probe is selected according to the hairs being treated. You will feel a sensation of intense warmth, but this passes quickly. If you are nervous about the feel of the treatment, your pharmacist may be able to recommend a numbing cream to use.

 

Electrolysis requires several appointments in order to treat all the hairs in an area during the active growth stage, and is more suited to smaller areas as one hair is treated at a time. If you are looking for permanent hair removal for a large area we recommend laser or IPL treatment.

 

Your first appointment is for a consultation to ensure your suitability for the treatment, and to patch test the treatment on a few hairs.

The most common feedback during the patch test is that the treatment is more comfortable than expected, so don’t be put off by the idea of it. We do everything we can to make your electrolysis sessions as pleasant as possible.
