Frequently asked questions
What machine do you use for treatments?
I use the Apilus xCell Pur, which is currently one of the most advanced electrolysis machines available. For more information, visit the Dectro website.
Should I do anything before treatment?
Yes! It is essential to allow your hair to grow out prior to treatment. I typically recommend approximately five days of growth. Since electrolysis involves removing the hair after it is treated, there must be sufficient length for me to effectively grasp and extract the hair afterward.
Electrolysis may cause mild skin irritation. To minimize this, I recommend avoiding creams, treatments, or products that could heighten irritation for several days before and after the procedure. This includes retinol/retinal treatments and any products containing salicylic or hyaluronic acid.
Do you treat transgender people?
Absolutely, I have extensive experience working with transgender clients, providing facial hair removal and assisting with surgical preparation. I am committed to fostering an inclusive and welcoming environment, embracing individuals from all backgrounds.
Should I do electrolysis or laser?
The answer varies depending on the individual's situation. Generally, laser hair removal is most effective on darker, more pigmented hairs and is not as successful in treating lighter hair. While laser can cover larger areas more quickly than electrolysis, it offers only semi-permanent results, whereas electrolysis is a fully permanent solution.
For those with a significant amount of dark, pigmented hair, I often recommend starting with laser treatments to thin the hair, followed by electrolysis for permanent removal. If you have additional questions or would like my current recommendations for laser hair removal, please feel free to reach out.
