FAQ

The number of necessary procedures is purely individual. Let’s figure out what this number depends on:

1. Individual characteristics of the body: nationality, heredity, number of bulbs laid.
2. Epilated area. In certain areas, hairs disappear much faster than in other areas
3. Time interval between the procedures
4. Method of hair removal between procedures (while it is strongly recommended NOT to epilate hairs between the sessions)
5. Whether you drink your recommended amount of clean water daily.

It is impossible to calculate the exact, but I can share a rough estimation.
The duration of one procedure and the number of sessions depend on the total number of your hair follicles, heredity, the area being epilated and whether you used a different hair-removal method before.

On average, the course takes 10-20 procedures. The bulk of the hairs will go away after the first 4-6 regular sessions. Further, the sessions take much less time when we work with the most stubborn remaining hairs.

Average duration of the first procedure by zone (don’t forget that the first procedure after shaving is the longest, which means that after a couple of sessions only, each next electrolysis procedure will be cheaper).

• Shins 4-7 hours
• Armpits 1-3 hours
• Bikini 4-6 hours
• Lips area 10-40 min

• • If you have blonde hair, you can dye it with dye (for eyebrows) a day before the procedure. This will help your aesthetician to perform the procedure much faster.

   

  • If your hair is too long, you can use a trimmer or scissors a day before. The optimal hair length is 3-10 mm.

   

  • Moisturized skin in the epilated area. Water is a good conductor of current.

   

  • Apply numbing cream 2 hours before the procedure.

   

  • Get enough sleep, eat well, come in a good mood. Your mood and overall state is important for a comfortable procedure.

Of course, electrolysis like many procedures in cosmetology, has a number of contraindications:

— inflammation of the skin surface, ulcers, fungal or viral;

— people after stroke and heart attack;

— cardiovascular system disease;

-pregnancy or lactation period;

— disbalanced endocrine system;

-mental disorders;

-epilepsy;

-tumours of any kind;

— varicose veins

-intolerance to metals from which needles are made

Moles and birthmarks should not be exposed to the needle.

Before conducting a course of electrical hair removal, talk to your aesthetician about possible contraindications.

Many people are interested in the negative consequences of electrolysis. I want to reassure you: the only negative thing that can remain on the skin after electrical hair removal is burns and scars in the “inept” hands of inexperienced aestheticians. Scars and burns are rare occurrences.

Electrolysis has been around for over 100 years.

100 years ago it was a very painful and long-healing procedure. Of course, over this long period, devices, electrodes, techniques have been improved, and cosmetics for home care have been modernized. I’ll tell you a secret: you need to “try” very hard to use modern devices and techniques to ruin the skin and leave permanent burns.

And I’ll definitely say for myself — I DO NOT work in such a way that you end up with burns. In the publications of my work, it is clearly visible that the skin after electrolysis is soft and clean, without any negative consequences.

Electrical hair removal affects ONLY the hair canal and has no effect on the body as a whole!

Electrolysis removes the hair FOREVER.

• The procedure is 100% safe and efficient.
• Guaranteed results — a method proven by generations

We can’t say the same about Photo or Laser Epilation. To put it plainly, the laser affects the colour (pigment) in the hair and does not tackle its growing zone, so often hair regrowth happens and «maintaining» treatments should be done regularly. However, exposing your body to often laser flashes might be risky, as scientists still studying their effects.

There are various machines in use for such treatments and not all of them are certified according to the same standards.

Electrolysis has existed for more than 140 years and during this time the devices and needles have evolved. This method of hair removal has been scientifically tested and approved.

I chose this procedure for myself and recommend it to my clients as well.
