WHAT TO EXPECT WITH A QUALITY TREATMENT:
Permanent hair removal results depend on the skill, accuracy, and judgment of the electrologist.
- In most instances, you should not feel the hair being pulled out during the treatment. The hair slides out easily if properly treated.
- Following a consistent series of treatments, you should see a change in the texture of coarse hair within 3 to 4 months.
- By six months, the frequency and length of time per treatment should be reduced.
- Within a year, your appointments should be spaced much farther apart and you will be coming in for clean ups.
Other considerations that have an effect on your permanent results include: hormonal imbalances, medications, and the client's compliance between scheduled appointments.
WHAT TO DO BEFORE YOUR TREATMENT:
Stop tweezing or waxing
at least one week before your scheduled appointment You may trim the hairs with cuticle scissors.
If you are shaving, allow three days before you come in for treatment so the hairs will be long enough for the electrologist to treat.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
THE APPLICATION
A sterile probe is gently inserted into the follicle along side of the hair. A measured amount of energy is then released via the probe into the follicle to destroy the source of growth. Because this is a natural opening of the skin, the insertion of the probe into the follicle is not felt by the client.
What the client may actually feel is the application of the current. Everyone feels it differently. There are many options available to assure that your treatment is comfortable. These will be discussed during your consultation.
The hair should then gently slide out of the follicle as the electrologists grasps it with her tweezers.
WHY IT TAKES A SERIES OF TREATMENTS:
A single hair grows for 10 to 12 weeks, falls out and then starts the cycle all over again. Because of the nature of the hair growth cycles, it can take up to 3 months before all the hairs come to the surface of the skin to be treated. Following your first treatment, there is still a collection of hair below the skin that has not been treated. This is referred to as the undergrowth
If you are tweezing or waxing, it can take up to three months before all the undergrowth appears. You may actually have many more hairs than you realize. Even if you are not removing the hairs, each hair still goes through the growth cycle, shedding and then regrowing.
Permanent results are best achieved by faithful participation in a planned program that has been tailored to your needs. This will all be discussed during your complementary consultation.
WHAT TO EXPECT FOLLOWING YOUR TREATMENT:
Immediately following the treatment, your skin may appear slightly pink and puffy. In most cases, the redness will disappear within a half hour to an hour. Many clients come in for treatments on their lunch hour and return to work immediately following their treatment.
Written AFTER TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS for home care will be given to you.
