Discover the Benefits: Why Electrolysis Hair Removal Is Loved for Face and Body

Electrolysis is a popular method of removing unwanted hair from almost any part of the body. It involves using radio frequency to destroy hair follicles and prevent future hair growth, allowing clients to stop performing temporary methods such as shaving and waxing. At Laser Center of Orlando, our providers may recommend electrolysis hair removal for the face and/or body as a better option than laser hair removal in specific cases, such as blonde, gray, red, and white hair that cannot be effectively treated with laser.

Five reasons why clients love electrolysis hair removal for the face and body

While many facial hair removal methods exist, electrolysis has gained a loyal following among clients. Here are five reasons why:

Permanent results

Unlike other temporary hair removal methods, such as waxing or shaving, electrolysis provides permanent results. After completing a series of sessions, clients no longer have to worry about unwanted hair in the area treated. 

Treatment is safe for all skin types

Electrolysis is safe for all skin types, including sensitive skin. This makes it an ideal option for those who may have reacted negatively to other hair removal methods.

Precision targeting

Electrolysis targets individual hair follicles, making it highly precise and effective in removing unwanted hair.

Minimal discomfort

While the thought of electric current may sound intimidating, clients typically report minimal discomfort during electrolysis treatments. Any discomfort is best managed with topical numbing cream. 

It can be combined with other treatments

Electrolysis can be combined with other cosmetic procedures, such as laser hair removal or chemical peels, to enhance results further.

Understanding electrolysis: Your path to permanent hair removal

During your electrolysis appointment at Laser Center of Orlando, one of our experienced providers will use a small needle-like probe to deliver radiofrequency into individual hair follicles. This process works to destroy the hair follicle and prevents future hair growth. Depending on the size of the treatment area, appointments often range from 10 minutes to an hour.

Clients should understand that electrolysis is not a one-time treatment; it requires multiple sessions to achieve effective, permanent results, as only actively growing hairs can be targeted during each session. Your provider will work with you to create a personalized treatment plan based on your specific needs and desired outcomes.

Post-treatment skin care and protection

After each session, some redness or swelling may occur in the treated area, but this usually subsides quickly. Clients should also be mindful of caring for their skin and protecting it from additional sun damage by wearing high-SPF sunscreen if staying outdoors for extended periods.
