How Many Treatments Does It Take? Many hairs will be eliminated with only one treatment, but some will need two or more treatments to achieve permanency. Electrolysis involves a series of treatments over a period of 1-3 months. The overall length of time depends on the amount of hair, its coarseness, the cause of the excess hair, but once the dermal papilla has been eliminated, the hair is dead and will not grow again.
Is Electrolysis Painful? Electrolysis rarely causes discomfort. If it does, adjustments can be made to the machine which will totally eliminate any sensation (although the length of the treatment will be increased proportionately). The sensation is less than in tweezing. Most patients are surprised as they expect to feel much more. Some patients even relax enough to fall asleep.
Is it Hard or Painful to Insert the Needle? No, the insertion of the electrolysis probe is much easier and far less intimidating than most people believe. The "needle" is actually a blunt-ended, highly flexible probe which never pierces the skin. There is no blood (or pain) involved. It slides effortlessly down a pre-existing shaft, like a hand into a glove.

To insert the probe, simply find the follicle opening with the tip of the probe, match the angle of the hair growth, then slide it downward until it stops (it will not push through the bottom of the follicle shaft).
Once the probe is correctly placed, depress the foot switch on your electrolysis unit. A mild current of energy will exit the probe, destroying the hair growth forever. Micro Probe Electrolysis is so complete and thorough only one of ten hairs may return to require a second application.
Can I Perform 'Self Electrolysis'? Yes, the procedure is very safe and easy. There are many home electrolysis systems on the market. Most of which use an inefficient 9,000K µV (10V-6) current with a very large probe (0.006-0.008 inch diameter). This low voltage makes for long treatment times of 1 minute or more. The large diameter probe makes insertion difficult and uncomfortable. The best advice for home treatments is to buy a medium to high power system from 18,000K to 24,000K µV (10V-6) which has a foot switch and a small diameter probe (0.003 maximum). The technical expertise required to operate an electrolysis machine is very minimal.
How Much Hair Can Be Removed in One Treatment? The amount of hair that can be removed in one treatment depends upon the sensitivity of the patient, the skin, and the proficiency of the electrologist.
