Electrolysis is the only form of hair removal considered permanent by the FDA. It involves inserting a fine probe along the hair shaft to the base of a follicle and delivering an electrical current to remove one hair at a time; and is therefore not indicated for large surface areas where laser hair removal is preferred. Electrolysis was first performed in 1875. There are 3 forms of electrolysis. Galvanic electrolysis uses only direct current (DC). Thermolysis uses an alternating current (AC). And the blend method uses both (AC/DC). Lamprobe is a non invasive radio, high frequency technology used to remove unwanted hair that laser cannot, with great efficacy. Pretreatment anesthesia is required, you will need to arrive 15-30 minutes before your scheduled appointment time. If you do not arrive early, you will reduce your scheduled treatment time and thereby reducing the amount of hair treated.
