Electrolysis is the only medically proven method of permanent hair removal at this time and is performed by trained professionals (electrologists) using specifically designed electronic equipment that destroys the hair germinating cells with a carefully controlled localised current.

Treatments may range over a period of twelve to eighteen months, depending on the amount of hair and its growth stage. Re-growth occurs as a result of resting cycles so subsequent visits will eventually destroy the regeneration cycle and the hairs will become finer in texture until hair growth ceases. Appointment times can range from fifteen minutes to one hour with results being seen after three to four treatments.
