Electric Hair Removal or Electrolysis?

Electric hair removal or electrolysis was the first permanent hair removal technique that guarantees the elimination of treated hair regardless of the growth phase it is in. The reason is that it acts directly on the hair follicle, destroying the germinal cells responsible for new hair growth.

For this reason, electrolysis is also the only way to remove blonde hair (lightly pigmented) or gray hair (white hair), which do not offer significant results with laser hair removal or, especially, with photoepilation.

In female patients, electric hair removal is also the only recommended technique for treating hair caused by facial hirsutism, as well as other less common areas such as the areolas or the linea alba. In these areas, the appearance of this unwanted hair is usually due to hormonal factors such as PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome).

At Lago Esthetic Medicine, we have a team of 8 specialized technicians in our 5 clinics which makes us a true reference in electric hair removal.
