Why choose Electrolysis?

How does Electrolysis work?
Trained professionals permanently eliminate the growth cells of unwanted hair with short-wave, galvanic or blended methods of electrolysis. Each method available can be explained by a professional Electrologist during consultations. Treatments are safe and permanent results are achieved.
How long does it take?
Completion time varies with each individual depending on the coarseness of the hair, the number of hairs to be removed and if temporary hair removal methods were previously used. Permanency is achieved through a series of regular treatments determined for each individual. Following treatment, instructions will speed completion. Hormones affect new hair growth at puberty, pregnancy and menopause. Other hair inducing factors may include stress, topical stimlulation (plucking and tweezing), diseases and conditions affecting the endocrine and exocrine glands, as well medications stimulating the hormones.

What areas of the body can be treated?

What is the cost involved?
