To achieve the best and fastest results from electrolysis, maintaining a consistent treatment schedule is crucial. Understanding the hair growth cycle and its relationship with electrolysis can help maximize the effectiveness of each session. Let's delve into the three stages of hair growth for a deeper understanding:

1. Anagen Phase:

• This is the active growth phase, where hair is formed from the root.

• Germinative cells in the innermost layer of the epidermis multiply and develop into a specialized column within the follicle.

• The papilla, responsible for hair growth, develops along with the bulb.

• Electrolysis treatments are most successful during this phase because the hair is straightest and closest to the surface, making it easier to target and destroy the papilla.

• Newly surfaced hair in this phase is weaker, facilitating quicker papilla destruction.

2. Catagen Phase:

• Following the growth phase, hair enters the Catagen phase.

• The papilla shrinks and separates from the bulb, reducing nourishment to the hair.

• Follicle walls shrink and dehydrate, and the lower part of the hair becomes lighter.

• New hair may start forming underneath the old hair still in the follicle, known as club hairs.

• Electrolysis during this phase may still target hairs but may not be as effective due to reduced nourishment and changes in follicle structure.

3. Telogen Phase:

• In this resting phase, the follicle waits until stimulated to begin a new cycle.

• The epilated hair may appear shriveled with a small bulb at the bottom.

• Electrolysis success rates are lower during this phase because the hair is detached from the papilla.

• While electrolysis can remove the hair, the lower part of the follicle may not be destroyed.

• Consistent and frequent electrolysis sessions are essential to ensure that the majority of treated hairs are in the Anagen phase, maximizing treatment effectiveness.
