Electrolysis
Electrolysis has been around since the 1890's getting rid of unwanted hair. A tiny needle is inserted into the hair follicle. The needle is heated and will damage the tissues in the hair producing area, so that follicle, if treated in the right stage of growth, will usually not produce another hair. A series of treatments are needed to effectively treat all the hair in an area, because only one hair at a time is being treated. Electrolysis is very effective over time and will eliminate most of your unwanted hair.
Recently, laser hair removal has virtually replaced this age-old technique. But there are instances that electrolysis is still needed. If you qualify for laser hair removal, it will be less expensive (in the long run), more comfortable and less time-consuming than electrolysis. But if you have light-colored hair (white, grey, red, or blonde), then you are only a candidate for electrolysis, not laser, and we will be happy to treat you with electrolysis. Electrolysis also needs to be done on the eyebrows, as well, since laser is not exact enough and may eliminate too much brow hair. A short, free consultation can determine which technique you will be a candidate for. Until very recently, most lasers were not able to effectively treat the finer, thinner, lighter-colored (but with some pigment) hair. The newest version of the GentleLase which we have can effectively get even quite fine hairs, as long as they have some pigment. So call for a free consultation today at 512-328-1555 to see if your hair qualifies for laser or electrolysis, or e-mail for information or your free consultation at info@alitelaser.com . We are looking forward to serving you.
