Overview
The demand for permanent hair removal today is greater than ever. Much of this renewed demand is contributed to all the "quick fix" hype created by light-based hair removal.
Excessive hair - on the face, arms, legs, and abdomen - can be a result of hormonal functions or imbalances, medication or stress. Women and men with this problem suffer needlessly in silence - electrolysis can eliminate this unwanted hair forever. It is especially effective in shaping eyebrows and with people having dark skin and/or light (blonde, white or gray) hair.
How this Works
Electrolysis is still the only method of permanent hair removal with years of proven results, safety and reliability. Electrolysis holds hope for anyone with an excess of unwanted hair. The process destroys the hair root by using a short wave frequency administered by a Certified Clinical Electrologist inserting an ultra fine pro beam into the hair follicle.
We offer a first time complementary consultation to analyze the skin, history of hair growth, cause of excess hair and probable length of treatment. While most clients begin with the most obvious visible problems, they often continue with treatments to get rid of annoyances like underarm hair or to improve their bikini line.
How Much Does it Cost?
Fees for Electrolysis treatment are generally reasonable and in line with other allied health care procedures. Temporary methods are actually more costly over time because they are unending.
Electrolysis, on the other hand, because it is permanent, will give you the freedom from unwanted hair for a lifetime and is actually less expensive in the long run. An Electrologist's fee is based on experience, education, and ability.
When it comes to your health and well-being, your objective should always be quality rather then price. This is certainly an area where experience has consistently shown that "you get what you pay for."
Frequently asked questions

This is the reason it takes time to accomplish permanent removal of all the hair, the ones that are visibly growing and also those that have the potential to grow.

However, people have different levels of sensitivity and something that is completely comfortable for one person may be less comfortable for another person, Most people undergoing treatment for the first time often say, "If I knew that's all there was to it, I'd have been here a lot sooner." Please realize, however, that tissue is being treated and that a sensation is to be expected.
