  • How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?

    Electrolysis has been the sole method of long-term or permanent hair elimination out there before laser and IPL systems joined the marketplace. Electrolysis is still conducted these days though it may be painful to the client and damaging to the epidermis, including the opportunity of an infection. During the electrolysis treatment, a fine needle may be put into your hair follicle, delivering an electric current in order to destroy the stem cells inside the hair foillicle. Sad to say, this painstaking process could be conducted 1 hair follicle at a time. Upkeep treatments are often essential for quite a while after the initial treatment.

  • How does Laser Hair Removal Work?

    Electrolysis was the only form of long term or permanent hair removal available before laser and IPL devices entered the market. Electrolysis is still performed today even though it is painful to the patient and invasive to the skin, allowing for the possibility of infection. During the electrolysis procedure, a fine needle is inserted into the hair follicle, delivering a galvanic current to destruct the stem cells in the follicle. Unfortunately, this painstaking process is performed one hair follicle at a time. Maintenance procedures are often needed for many years after the initial treatment.
