In some situations, your electrologist may ask for approval from your physician before beginning electrolysis sessions. That includes electrolysis for pregnant women and electrolysis to remove hairs growing from moles.
Thermolysis is one of the most popular types of electrolysis and uses radio waves or high frequency current to remove unwanted hair. Thermolysis is effective because it uses the moisture in the hair follicle and low-level heat to both destroy and cauterize the follicle.
Today's medical 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 and is unlikely to return.
Did you know that the electrolysis process is generally pain-free? This is because when electrolysis is performed correctly, the hair is detached from the follicle first before the electrologist uses tweezers to pull the hair out.
Is any one time better than another to begin electrolysis treatments? Find out how many treatments will be required and make sure you are available to attend all of the electrolysis sessions. Many people schedule electrolysis sessions during their lunch hour.
Getting unwanted hair waxed in a salon can be costly, but using a home waxing kit isn't any better. In addition to the pain involved, they can be hard to use, not to mention messy. Electrolysis, on the other hand, is permanent and easy.
