Insertion
A super fine probe is gently inserted into the hair follicle (don’t worry, it doesn’t puncture the skin).
Then, a small electrical current is delivered to the root, safely destroying the follicle’s ability to produce new hair.

What To Expect Before, During & After Electrolysis Hair Removal
Wondering what electrolysis hair removal is really like? We’ve got you.
From what to do before your first session to how your skin might react after, here’s a no-fluff guide to what really happens.
Yes, electrolysis is the only method approved by the FDA for permanent hair removal.
It works by destroying the hair follicle at the root, so once a follicle is fully treated, it can’t grow hair again.
Most people need eight to 20+ sessions depending on the area, hair type, and how your body responds.
Hair grows in cycles, so multiple treatments are needed to catch every follicle in its active growth phase.
Once a follicle is treated, it’s gone for good. Results are permanent, though hormonal changes can trigger new growth that may need occasional touch-ups.
Facial hair typically requires 12 to 25 sessions, especially if it’s dense or hormone-driven. Treatments are spaced out over several months and adjusted based on your progress.
Yes. Electrolysis doesn’t rely on pigment the way laser does, so it’s safe and effective for all skin tones and hair types.
It’s not painless, but it’s manageable.
Most people say it feels like a quick zap or pinch. Some areas are more sensitive than others and numbing creams can help if needed.
Pretty much anywhere you have unwanted hair.
Think face, underarms, bikini line, chest, back, stomach, fingers, toes, you name it. It’s especially great for small or stubborn spots.
No, you can’t treat the same area with laser and electrolysis at the same time.
But once you’ve finished your laser sessions, electrolysis is a great way to clean up any hairs that laser may have missed.
Your hair removal plan depends on your goals.
Many individuals start with laser for quick coverage on larger areas, then use electrolysis for precision and lasting results.
Laser hair removal can also be a good option for people with light skin and dark hair. However, its effectiveness can be reduced on other skin and hair types, where electrolysis can step in as a universal option.
Yes! Teens can usually start electrolysis around 14, once puberty has begun and hair growth is a little more stable.
Absolutely. In fact, electrolysis is one of the best options for hormonal hair, like the kind caused by PCOS or menopause.
It might take a few more sessions, but the results are real and long-term.
Electrolysis hair removal side effects include just a bit of redness or swelling right after your session.
