At Bella Luce Electrolysis, we know permanent hair removal comes with a lot of questions — and we’re here to answer them. Whether you’re just starting your journey or you’re ready to commit, we want you to feel informed and confident every step of the way.
Yes! It is the only FDA approved method of permanent hair removal.
That varies from person to person. It is dependent on what medications the client is taking, how coarse the hair is in the treatment area, and if the client has shaved, waxed, tweezed etc., between treatments. Average is around 18 to 24 months of treatments; 3-4 full hair cycles.
This also depends on the client. I have some who fall asleep, and others who find the sessions uncomfortable.
I insert a tiny probe into the client's hair follicle and send a two currents through it, high frequency and galvanic (called the blend method). The hair will release and I glide it out with a pair of tweezers.
These side effects are usually mild and temporary. It is important to avoid sun exposure and use sunscreen after treatment.
At Bella Luce Electrolysis, your time is valuable—and so is ours. We kindly ask for at least 24 hours’ notice if you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment.
Cancellations made with less than 24 hours’ notice will incur a fee equal to 50% of the scheduled service.
Thank you for respecting our time and helping us continue to provide the best care to all clients.
That depends enormously on how much hair is involved and the patient’s compliance with the needed scheduling. Remember, this is a permanent treatment so while it may seem lengthy at first at least there is an end in sight. This isn’t an evasive answer. Please read on and you’ll better understand what is involved.
The simple answer is that the electrologist slides a special probe along the hair’s route and in to the follicle. Electric current is applied that creates heat and chemical reactions to destroy the follicles capacity to produce another hair.
To remove the hair, most patients need 2 to 6 laser treatments. After finishing the treatments, most patients do not see any hair on the treated skin for several months or even years. When the hair regrows, there tends to be less of it. The hairs also tend to be finer and lighter in color.
Yes but not always on the first try. To best understand this it helps to understand how hair grows. Hair grows in three stages and then falls out and starts over. The hair’s follicle is only present and susceptible to treatment during the first and perhaps the second stage of growth. If a hair is treated during the last phase of growth the effort is wasted because there just isn’t a follicle there to treat. Unfortunately there is no way to know what phase of growth the individual hairs are in. This is why it’s important to return for treatments frequently. If a hair is treated unsuccessfully once and then is given too much time to grow again it will once again pass in to its final (telogen) stage where treatment is ineffective.
No. Most hair problems consist of hair that is so densely spaced that treating every hair in one day would cause skin damage. We want you to look better, not worse!
At this time, I do not — a specialized treatment table is required to safely and comfortably perform electrolysis in that area. I don’t currently have that equipment (pun absolutely intended), but feel free to message me and I’ll let you know as soon as I do!
