Are there different kinds of electrolysis?
The field of Electrology includes Thermolysis, Galvanic, and The Blend: • Thermolysis uses high frequency waves to coagulate the tissues inside of the hair follicles. A tiny hair-like probe (needle) slides down into the follicle under the hair. There is no need to puncture the skin. Then the electrologist applies the high frequency current, also known as shortwave. This heats up the tissue surrounding the hair. The probe itself does not heat up. You do feel a quick warming sensation. The warmer you can tolerate, the more of the follicle can be destroyed and the more hair growing cells will be killed. Thermolysis (the preferred method by Tami) is a quick process taking very little time with each hair. A large area is able to be covered in one appointment. There is a slightly higher rate of re-growth with Thermolysis but the faster treatment time allows them to be caught quickly when they grow back finer and lighter. After a series of treatments the hairs will not grow back and will then
