Why Electrolysis is the Best Investment for Permanent Hair Removal

How much does electrolysis cost?

When compared to the expense of a lifetime of shaving, depilatories, or laser treatments, the permanence of electrolysis makes it a wise investment in yourself.

Overall, electrolysis cost compares very favorably to other hair removal methods, including laser hair removal. When considering the long-term, recurring treatments required with other methods, electrolysis is a good investment.

Electrolysis treatment cost depends on several factors including:

  • How much hair needs to be removed

  • The size of the area being treated

  • Where you get your services performed

Generally, a large city is going to have higher rates than a small town.


How many sessions are required with electrolysis?

The number of sessions necessary varies with each client's treatment. Many factors determine how many sessions are needed:

The number of sessions necessary varies with each client's treatment. Many factors determine how many sessions are needed:

  • The amount of hair

  • Genetics

  • Hormones

  • Nutrition and health of the individual

  • Methods used for dealing with the hair before treatment

The same factors impact how often sessions should be scheduled throughout your custom treatment plan. For example, treatments for areas that have been waxed or tweezed would be more frequent than for areas that have been shaved.

Overall, the length and frequency of your appointments depend mostly on the size of the area being cleared. Electrolysis clients might schedule 5 minutes for just a couple of annoying hairs on their chin or they might schedule multiple hour or longer appointments to treat larger areas, such as heavy facial growth or legs. Electrolysis treatments are the longest and most frequent at the beginning, but both treatment length and frequency taper off as fewer and fewer hairs remain to be treated.  For best results, follow the electrologist's recommendations in scheduling appointments.

Is electrolysis permanent?

Yes! Electrolysis safely and permanently removes all types of hair from all skin tones. No other hair-removal solution can claim the universal acceptability and success offered by electrolysis treatments.

Electrolysis permanently destroys the growth cells of the hair follicle, preventing treated hairs from growing back. Most other methods focus on immediate, but temporary, hair removal - visible hair, or hair that's inside the follicle but hasn't yet emerged. None of them deliver permanent elimination of unwanted hair.

How does electrolysis compare to other hair removal methods?

Unlike other hair removal options, professionally performed electrolysis eliminates unwanted hair, permanently, with unsurpassed results. Moreover, it does so for the largest variety of skin and hair types.

Other methods may appear to be less expensive or more convenient, but these seeming advantages fade quickly when you consider the need for long-term use and lifetime maintenance.
