FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHAT DOES ELECTROLYSIS FEEL LIKE?

You’ll probably feel a momentarily heat sensation or pinch. Discomfort is minimal for most people, but individual tolerances vary greatly. Keep in mind that some areas of the body are much less sensitive than others.

WHAT ABOUT AFTER TREATMENT?

Immediately following treatment, you may experience slight redness or tenderness which usually disappears in a couple of hours. There is very little risk of complication or serious skin irritation with electrolysis performed by a skilled practitioner. For the first 24 hours following treatment, it’s best to avoid activity that could irritate hair follicles such as excessive sweating, tanning, or prolonged sun exposure or make-up application.

HOW LONG WILL MY ELECTROLYSIS TREAMENT TAKE?

Depending on the area you want cleared, it could be a few minutes for a follow up appointment to an hour for a larger area. Most people who follow the recommended treat plan can expect to be completed or nearly completed within 18 months. Factors such as hair growth cycles, the quantity or structure of hair presented, previous use of temporary hair removal methods, heredity, hormone function, certain medications and stress influence the treatment program for each individual.
