the Price of Electrolysis

The service included the fees of the consultant and dermatologist responsible for the electrolysis procedure, clinic charges, taxes and other charges including special care equipment, etc. The procedure was performed on my chest and abdominal areas for complete removal of hair from the torso giving it a clean shaven like look which is more long lasting if not permanent.

The therapist involved in the multiple procedures was excellent as a person and handled all my queries very well. There were 17 sessions of treatment in all, not including the 1st counselling session and one more session in the end giving tips on further care. Each session lasted approximately 40-45 minutes and sometimes a bit less. They worked on various areas and the procedure type used was blend.

There are 3 main types of electrolytic systems - galvanic, thermolysis and blend. The multiple sittings of the procedure make you feel tired and I personally believe I should have tried the laser procedure instead. But since I wanted more long lasting solution, electrolysis is considered superior to laser hair removal in wide areas as it removes the follicles of hair itself rather than vaporising using a laser. I did not experience discoloration though some people do experience it. Make sure you are focused and committed as sometimes the 20 plus sessions may take a toll on you mentally. Approx. each session costs around 80-100 USD depending on location, texture of hair, your commitment and expert.
