CHOOSE THE BEST ELECTROLYSIS METHOD FOR YOUModern Electrolysis techniques have improved from the old days of cloth-covered wire and glowing vacuum tubes. While transistors and computers have revolutionized electronic devices, the basic principles of Electrolysis Hair Removal are unchanged. A trained electrologist inserts a fine, solid, pre-sterilized needle (wire or probe) into the hair follicle and applies a small amount of electrical current to permanently destroy the hair growth cells that lie mostly at the base of the follicle. Electrologists have a choice of three different methods of electrolysis to choose from. There is much research by manufacturers searching for the “Holy Grail” of easy and lasting hair removal; one manufacturer makes the claim their device is permanent based on 9 weeks worth of results. Hardly true. Even old-fashioned waxing can last that long, and it's been clinically proven to be a temporary method. Note that in the United States, the FDA forbids the marketing of any hair removal technologies and services that guarantee permanent hair removal. This is because current methodologies only provide for permanent reduction in hair growth about 90% of the time, give or take 10 %. So don’t expect permanent removal without acknowledging the possibility of that 10% variation. The Electrolysis Trinity
A Good Option It is very difficult to estimate the cost of electrolysis since hair grows denser for some people versus others. While an upper lip may take as little as one hour to treat, a man's back hair removal treatment may take 150 hours or even more. Electrolysis is definitely a tried and true option for those opting for permanent hair removal. Although sometimes costly, painful and time consuming, it may be the best option for people with certain hair or skin types, or for those with only a small amount of hair to be removed. |
