Electrology stands alone as the only method recognized by the FDA for permanent hair removal. Unlike laser hair removal, which is effective primarily on dark hair, electrology can permanently eliminate any color hair—including blonde, red, white, and grey—on any skin type.
The procedure involves inserting a very fine, sterile probe into the natural opening of the hair follicle. A tiny electrical microcurrent is then delivered to the base of the follicle, destroying the growth cells and preventing any future hair from growing. It is a meticulous and highly effective process for achieving a permanently smooth, hair-free appearance.
