Electrolysis Hair Removal
Electrolysis is a method of removing individual hairs from the face and body. Today’s electrolysis devices destroy the growth center of the hair with chemical or heat energy. After a very fine probe is inserted into the hair follicle, the hair is removed with tweezers.
Most areas of the body can be treated with electrolysis, including the eyebrows, face, abdomen, thighs, breast and legs. There are generally no side effects, but sometimes a temporary, slight reddening of the skin may occur.
Electrolysis helps women suffering from excessive hair growth, one of the the side effects of menopause and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). It is also a permanent hair removal solution for transgender individuals.
The FDA and the American Medical Association recognize only electrolysis as a permanent method of removing hair.
