✨ WATCH THIS TRANSFORMATION! ✨

Ever wondered what Advanced Electrolysis can do? 👀

In today’s video, we’re showing the removal of a seborrhoeic wart using advanced electrolysis. ⚡️

Advanced electrolysis can be used for the treatment of a variety of minor skin imperfections, including certain warts, skin tags, milia, blood spots and other blemishes — depending on suitability.

🔬 What happens?
A fine sterile probe is used to precisely treat the targeted area, allowing the unwanted tissue to be removed while keeping the treatment as controlled and accurate as possible.

🎥 Watch the video to see the treatment in action!

⚠️ Every skin lesion is assessed individually during consultation to determine whether treatment is appropriate. We cannot diagnose skin lesions, and any suspicious, changing or undiagnosed lesion should always be assessed by an appropriate medical professional before treatment.

⚡ “BUT I THOUGHT ELECTROLYSIS WAS PERMANENT… WHY DO I NEED MULTIPLE SESSIONS?” 👀

One of the biggest questions we get about electrolysis is why you need more than one appointment if electrolysis permanently destroys the hair follicle.

The answer is all about the hair growth cycle! 🔄

Your hairs aren’t all growing at the same time. At any given moment, some hairs are actively growing, while others are resting or shedding. Electrolysis is most effective when the hair is in the right stage of its growth cycle.

That means we can’t treat every follicle at exactly the same point in its cycle during one appointment.

✨ So what happens?

At each appointment, we treat the hairs that are ready to be treated. As different hairs enter the active growth stage, they become visible and can be treated at your following appointments.

Over time, with consistent treatments, we work through the hairs cycle by cycle until we have treated the follicles in the area.

⚡ This is why consistency is so important!

Electrolysis is a process, not a one-off treatment. The number of sessions you need can vary depending on the area, amount of hair, previous hair removal methods, hair growth patterns and how long you’ve been experiencing the growth.

💡 And remember:
Seeing hairs appear between appointments does NOT necessarily mean the treatment hasn’t worked. It can simply be hairs that weren’t ready to be treated during your previous session.

💗 Stick with your treatment plan, follow your therapist’s advice and be patient with the process.

Permanent hair removal takes time — but every appointment is another step towards your goal. ⚡

💗 Waxing: great for the body, but what about your face?

Ever wondered why waxing can make body hair seem finer and less noticeable, but facial hair can be a completely different story? 👀

Regular body waxing can lead to slower, finer-looking regrowth for some people because repeated removal from the root can affect the appearance of the hair over time.

Facial hair is different. Hormones play a much bigger role, and repeated waxing or plucking doesn’t permanently reduce the hair — and regrowth can sometimes appear darker or more noticeable as it comes back.

✨ If unwanted facial hair is your concern, electrolysis is the permanent hair-removal option and can treat individual hairs regardless of colour.

Stop waxing. Start zapping. ⚡️
