Electrolysis Hair Reduction FAQ
Getting the Best Results from your Appointment
HYDRATE your skin!
AVOID shaving, trimming, and depliatory creams at least 2-3 days prior to your appointment.
Limit caffeine and sugar the day of your session.
STOP HARSH TOPICAL SKIN TREATMENTS AT LEAST 2-3 DAYS (this includes exfoliation, salicylic acid, retinol) BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT.
AVOID SUN EXPOSURE always wear an SPF 30+
Who should avoid Electrolysis:
People with Cardiovascular disorders, circulatory disorders, anti-coagulant drugs, that are prescribed for these conditions, as they interfere with the effectiveness of the treatment and can cause clotting problems.
Is it OK to shave in between electrolysis appointments?
It's okay to shave between treatments, but never, ever tweeze! The hair you see is not all the hair you have. Hair grows in cycles. That's why it takes more than one appointment to permanently clear an area.
How many sessions can I expect to have ?
Because hair grows in 4-6 weekly cycles, and electrolysis is most effective on actively growing hairs that are still attached to the blood supply, you can expect to be getting electrolysis for at least 12-24 months
Why have electrolysis instead of Laser Hair Reduction?
Electrolysis can treat every hair colour. Including red, grey, white and dark hairs, whereas Laser cannot treat hair that is light, red, grey or blonde. Electrolysis is a fantastic option for those people who cannot have laser.
