Electrolysis

Electrolysis is a process which is considered to be the most effective; as of now. This involves a hair-thin metal probe slid into a hair follicle. A proper insertion of the follicle doesn’t puncture the skin pores and thus electricity is passed to the cells damaging them permanently resulting in no further growth of hairs.

Electrolysis guarantees permanent removal of hairs as it is clinically proven and is being used for over more than 125 years.

Electrolysis, a hair removal process depends on the sensitivity of the skin, its condition and strength in addition with the location of the hair to be removed- which relates to determine the treatment plan.

Electrolysis depends highly on the area of skin to be treated and on whether the hairs are concentrated to a small and specific area, which directly affects the period of the treatment process.

There are basically three types of Electrolysis hair removal processes:

Galvanic - An electro-chemical current produces a bit of lye.
Thermolysis- A heat current is produced by a radio wave.
Blend - An electro-chemical reaction is produced more quickly by a combination of both the above methods

Though clinically proven, Electrolysis can sometimes depict common side-effects which include pains, reddening or even swelling of areas. Possible scabs moving on to infections may happen if not taken care of. Tanned or dark skins may be affected by blotches which can be permanent or temporary in nature. It is therefore advisable to consult a therapist, explaining hereditary factors and skin conditions.

Electrolysis is often considered to be harmful at times of pregnancy, or persons who run with pace-makers. Since this process involves passage of charge, it is best advised to opt for a consultation before arriving at any decision.
