Why do some people have problems of Excessive Hair Growth? | The Causes of Hair Growth Superfluous hair growth is often the result of normal biological changes which females undergo throughout life. As a woman advances through puberty, pregnancy and menopause, she experiences fluctuations in hormone levels which may cause increased hair growth in an area that has never before been affected. Excessive hair may also be due to such diverse causes as heredity, certain medications and stress. It is often associated with a dysfunction of the endocrine system such as irregular menstrual cycles, ovarian disorders or thyroid irregularities. A trained electrologist will recognize those symptoms which may require referral to a physician. Who Can Benefit From Electrology? Electrology is For Everyone Many men and women seek electrolysis not only as a solution to the problem of unacceptable hair growth but also as a convenience that frees them from the daily effort of maintaining a hair free look on most of the face and body. For many, electrolysis becomes a necessity, especially for those who are discouraged with the unsuccessful results of temporary hair removal methods. Through the use of highly sophisticated technology and the professional skill of a licensed electrologist, electrolysis remains the only method of hair removal approved by physicians and health professionals as both safe and permanent. How Does Electrolysis Work? The Electrolysis Treatment Applications: Permanent hair removal is accomplished by directing a measured amount of electrical current into the natural opening of the hair follicle by means of an ultra fine instrument until the base of the hair root (technically known as the papilla) is effectively treated. This procedure causes gradual cellular destruction impairing the ability of the follicle to produce a hair. Minimum Discomfort: Since certain areas of the body are more sensitive to treatment than others, the sensations associated with electrolysis will vary. Regrowth: Some regrowth in the treated area will normally be experienced over a period of time. However, with subsequent treatments, the hair will become finer in texture until the entire regeneration cycle has been permanently destroyed and hair growth ceases. After Treatment: An electrolysis treatment may result in a slight reddening of the skin. This is temporary and varies with individual skin types. Your electrologist will recommend post treatment care. Why Not Use Temporary Methods? Caution should be exercised when choosing to use a temporary method of hair removal, Most temporary methods can irritate the skin and may cause increased hair growth. These methods must be used continuously in order to maintain the look and feel desired. Some of these methods and products can be harmful to skin. Constant shaving, waxing, tweezing, bleaching, depilatories, and the use of home mechanical devices over a period of time can cause skin irritation, ingrown hairs, and sometimes scarring. They also can compound the problem rather than alleviate it. Keeping in mind your ultimate goal, good judgement is a must when choosing how to deal with unwanted hair. I'd Like to Know About the Standards of Sanitation and Sterilization. Highest Standard of Sanitation We use disposable electrolysis needles, state-of-the-art equipment, and sterile forceps. Strict sanitation procedures are adhered to. A discussion with us regarding our sterilization procedures would be most welcome. How Much Time Is Needed To Achieve Results? Time Involved to Achieve Permanent Results One of the most important elements in achieving successful hair removal is the continuity of treatments. Permanent results are best achieved by the faithful participation of each client in a planned program that has been tailored to his or her individual needs. The time in which one achieves permanent results is dependent upon such factors as one's medical history, age, previous temporary hair removal methods used, and the texture of the hair to be treated (fine vs. coarse). We are trained to determine the frequency and treatment time necessary for each particular person.
