FAQ's and General INFO....
Is electrolysis uncomfortable?
It is impossible to destroy hair growth tissue without sensation. Sensation varies for each individual. Some find the sensation to sting, while others feel nothing more than a slight itch. Each hair follicle is surrounded by nerve endings responsible for the sensitivity one feels during the treatment. Sensitvity can vary greatly for each individual follicle. The use of special creams and pain management medication can aid people with special sensitivity needs. Topical asnesthesia is available through your physician and may be applied by the client prior to each appointment.
Can I perform electrolysis on myself?
Do not confuse probe Electrolysis with the electrfied tweezers now being marketed. It is also possible to purchase probe electrolysis instruments for use in the home, but I do not recommend them. Since the removal process depends on te angle of insertion, an unsteady hand can result in unnececessary skin damage. For a permanent result, a good Professional Electrologist is the best solution.
