Electrolysis is the only means of permanently destroying the germinative cells
responsible for hair growth in the dermis layer as well as eliminating the chance
of hair growing from the treated follicle.
It remains today the only permanent solution to unwanted hair.
There are many hair removal methods and products available for the
consumer from over the counter depillatories to in salon services such
as waxing and tweezing.
These services are an option and alternative to electrolysis.
Keep in mind, they can be a quick fix but also can do irreversable damage to the underlying tissue and well as distort hair follicles and cause scarring beneath the skin.
To be sure, choose wisely, choose electrolysis to be sure you are receiving safe, permanent hair removal from a qualified licensed practioner.
For those seeking laser hair removal, it has only been cleared by the FDA for permanent "hair reduction" and therefore has not been proven permanent.
Fine probe the width of a single hair is inserted along the shaft of the hair into the existing follicle opening created by the hair. You will not feel the insertions, only the short pulse created for treatment. This treatment does not puncture, nor hurt the epidermis and is non invasive and safe. Effective permanent results will be achieved at the base of the hair where the root and geminitive cells that are responsible for hair growth, WILL BE DESTROYED. Any new hairs in the treatment site are most likely NEW hairs and not regrowth as some like to refer.
FYI *NOTE...there are apprx. anywhere from 300 and more hairs in a square inch.
Each individual varies of course.
