ELECTROLYSIS
Explanation of Electrolysis
 |
Electrolysis is a progressively permanent hair removal treatment to rid the body of superfluous (unwanted) hair. Electrolysis has been around for over one hundred years when it was invented by an Opthamologist to treat an ingrown eyelash!
Today the same basic principle of `proven' permanent hair removal is still the safest, effective and most reliable method around.

How electrolysis works
| A fine metal probe is gently slid into the base of the follicle, to where the cells responsible for growing the hair are situated. Intensity is applied to the base of the follicle (thermolysis) which destroys the cells that grow the hair. During the electrolysis treatment you may experience a heat sensation which is associated with the intensity being applied. It is called progressively permanent, as it is difficult although not impossible to destroy all the cells after one insertion. If all cells are not destroyed the hair will grow back finer, softer and lighter, until |
 |
eventually all cells are destroyed and the follicle is unable to produce another hair.
Duration of treatment
Everybody is different, so it is difficult to say the exact duration of electrolysis treatment. It is dependent on the size of the hair, how often you are willing to come in for treatments and possibly other factors such as hormones and medication you may currently be using.
