Electro-depilation (Electrolysis)

Understanding this method of facial hair removal

Electric hair removal uses a hair removal device to destroy the cells responsible for hair growth. A fine needle, connected to an electro-coagulator, transmits an electric current to eliminate the hair at its root. Thanks to modern equipment and local anesthesia, the procedure is more comfortable than ever before. The key to its success lies in the precision of the operator.

When to consider electro-depilation (electrolysis)

When to opt for electrolysis? Although flash-light or laser hair removal methods are faster, electrolysis is ideal for..:

• White or very light-colored hairs.
• Rare, isolated hairs.
• Tanned skin.
• Residual facial hair after using other techniques.

‍

How does our cosmetic clinic do it?

After careful disinfection, a needle is inserted into the hair follicle. The electric current raises the temperature of the bulb, destroying it. The hair is then removed without resistance.
