Hair Removal for Women

     Women, whether cisgender or transgender, that want hair removal deserve to be able pursue such methods.

     There are multiple ways to pursue hair removal. Tweezing, shaving, depilatory creams, waxing in various forms, laser hair removal/reduction, even hormone regulation, and electrolysis. Once we remove the methods seen as temporary removal we are left with laser hair removal/reduction, hormone regulation, and electrolysis.

     Laser Hair Removal/Reduction, LHR for short, is a method that can and has worked wonders for many people since it's conception, but it doesn't work for all skin colors, all hair colors, and it can give uncertain results. Hair can uncommonly be permanent removed, but moreso there will just be a reduction in hair or reduction in hair size/strength. This works for many people and they are pleased, some go on to pursue electrolysis.

     Some individuals have hormonal problems that could cause excessive hair growth, or it could just be family genetics (genetics, PCOS, other disorders). Women that have gone through menopause will also experience changes that they could suffer through, or they could start hormone replacement theory with their physician's advice and expertise. Whether they start estrogen or simply block testosterone they may still have hair that turned terminal before hrt treatment could prevent further hair changes. They can turn to electrolysis or LHR or other hair removal methods.

    

     For women who have tried all other hair removal methods but didn't prefer them there is Electrolysis. Electrolysis can also be the first solution they tried, but it's likely that other methods were attempted first, to much frustration and possibly money.

      Electrolysis is the only USA FDA certified permanent hair removal solution. Electrolysis has been been done since the late 1800s and improved via it's three methods offered and improvements in electrical technology. The machines have relatively been perfected today and it falls to the electrologist's skills to administer proper hair removal. Come to us and we will usher in an age of hair removal that stays permanent.

     Please do of course understand that hair grows in cycles that could be as long as a year, and a treated hair may not be in the best situation that it is permanent treated the first time, second time, or third time, but it most definitely will eventually with good technique. Expect 1-2 years for an area to be permanently hairless of the hair that was bothering you. Your sessions will definitely become shorter as time goes on and some hairs are permanently treated each session, while others will be back weakened and hopefully destroyed the next time. This is of course granted that the area wanting treatment is cleared each time. If the whole area is not treated within one session it will be as sessions go on and new hair growth in cleared areas is lesser than it was initially, ie clearing out old growth before continuing to destroy new growth and move on to other old growth areas.
