The treatment

What is electrolysis?

Electrolysis destroys the growth cells of a hair follicle with a tiny amount of energy delivered through a fine probe. It is the only method of permanent hair removal recognized by both the American Medical Association and the FDA.

Three proven methods

Which one we use depends on your hair, your skin, and your comfort. We'll explain the choice before we begin.

Galvanic

A small direct current creates a chemical reaction in the follicle that destroys the hair-growing cells.

Thermolysis

High-frequency energy produces gentle heat at the base of the follicle, disabling it quickly.

The blend

Both methods combined — the speed of thermolysis with the thoroughness of galvanic.

Step by step

How your treatment works

01

Free consultation

We look at the area, talk through your goals, and answer every question. No commitment.

02

Your first session

A fine probe slides into the natural opening of the follicle — no piercing of the skin — and the hair is released.

03

Aftercare

You'll leave with clear pre and post treatment instructions to keep skin calm and healthy.

04

A course of visits

Hair grows in cycles, so follicles are treated over a series of appointments until growth stops for good.

Common questions

Does it hurt?
Most clients tell us it's far less uncomfortable than they expected. Sensation varies by area, and we work at a pace that suits you.
How many sessions will I need?
Hair grows in cycles and many factors influence growth, so it's difficult to predict. We'll give you a realistic picture at your consultation.
Is it permanent?
Yes. Once a follicle's growth cells are destroyed, that hair does not return — unlike waxing, shaving, or most laser results.
Will it work on my hair colour?
Electrolysis is equally effective on blonde, red, gray, and black hair, and on every skin tone.
