Does Electrolysis Effectively Remove All Hair Types?

Yes. It doesn’t matter if you have dark or light hair in the chosen area, or if you have light or dark skin. Unlike laser hair removal, which is best for dark hair on light skin, electrolysis will work no matter what your hair and skin colour. Many factors influence hair growth, so you will need to return for several electrolysis visits. The total number of sessions needed to remove hair permanently from a particular area will vary from person to person. Most clients return once a week or every other week as needed. But the unwanted hair will be gone forever once the series of treatments is complete. Each treatment lasts between 15 minutes and one hour.

Hair Removal....Laser or Electrolysis?

Laser hair removal uses mild radiation via high-heat lasers. The purpose is to damage hair follicles enough to significantly slow down hair growth. Laser therapy doesn’t create permanent results. Although new hairs may still grow, you’ll notice that they grow in finer and lighter in colour than before. This procedure tends to work best if you have both fair skin and dark hair.

Electrolysis produces more permanent results. It inhibits new hair growth for all skin and hair types. The results of electrolysis are touted as being permanent because of hair follicle destruction. In theory, having damaged hair follicles means that no new hairs are able to grow. These results aren’t achieved in just one session.

Laser therapy and electrolysis both produce longer-lasting effects compared to shaving. But electrolysis seems to work the best. The results are more permanent. Electrolysis also carries fewer risks and side effects, and you don’t need the maintenance treatments required for laser hair removal. The downside is that electrolysis must be spread out over more sessions. It can’t cover large areas at once like laser hair removal can. Your choice may depend on how quickly you want to achieve short-term hair removal.

Lyra’s hair removal journey....
“I was plagued by hair concentrated on my chin, and side of my jaw. After laser hair removal, I grew longer thicker hair which concerned me. Therefore, I set for a more permanent treatment. I came across Louise on Google and decided to go for a consultation. Expecting to feel some discomfort, the insertions did not hurt at all. The heat tingled a little, but I didn’t feel any hair plucking.

Louise suggested a series of three treatments to permanently remove all the hair. Now I am completely hair free, and my confidence has soared. Before treatment I never went out for fear of ridicule. Now I feel like a new woman”.

After a Peeling Marine Facial, this is what Andrea said about her aftercare.
"As part of my post-peel aftercare and in order to prolong that "new skin" effect, I have been using the water essence and night serum every other day as part of my evening routine. You can use the water essence in the morning and the serum in the evening, but I tend to use acids in the evening only and my skin has really enjoyed layering the two products. My skin has definitely improved since I started. Fine lines and pores appear less visible, my skin tone is more even and my skin looks plump and healthy."

The Thalgo Peeling Marin treatment is the first marine peel that is rich in acids from fermented micronized marine algae dissolved in lactic acid which stimulates skin renewal, leaving you with that "new skin" effect which is visible from the first treatment. You can have a Peeling Marin treatment on its own, as part of a treatment course of two treatments or an intensive treatment course of three treatments. During a course, treatments take place once a week. Hollie was invited to have the Peeling Marine Intensive Treatment Course, and this is what she said.

“All three treatments were conducted by Louise, who talked me through the procedure and what to expect. The acid peel was gentle, and my skin was left much brighter. A little redness soon faded, but I was told to keep out of the sun for a few days. The second treatment a week later was a little more intense, but my skin felt plump and looked better immediately. After the third treatment I really noticed a pronounced difference. My skin is now smooth and glowing. I now use the Thalgo Peeling Marine products at home which is prolonging the effect of the treatment.”
