Electrolysis is the technique and science of permanent hair removal.
A small amount of electricity or a solution of sodium hydroxide is introduced to the
base of the hair follicle (hair papilla) in order to destroy the root of the hair.
WHAT IS ELECTROLYSIS?
Electrolysis is the technique and science of permanent hair removal. A small amount of electricity or a solution of sodium hydroxide is introduced to the base of the hair follicle (hair papilla) in order to destroy the root of the hair.
THERE ARE 3 METHODS OF ELECTROLYSIS FOR PERMANENT HAIR REMOVAL:
Thermolysis applies alternating current to the probe at the base of the hair in order to create heat and destroy the hair follicle.
This is the most commonly used method because it is very fast and effective.
Blend uses a combination of heat and current to speed up the galvanic chemical reaction to destroy the hair follicle.
This method is slightly slower than thermolysis but is very effective and often used to treat difficult areas.
Galvanic was the first form of electrolysis and is not often performed currently.
It uses direct current to cause a chemical reaction within the body in order to destroy the hair follicle.
Galvanic has fallen out of favor because it takes a significantly longer time to work.
