What is hair removal by electrolysis?

Electrolysis is a safe, reliable and successful permanent treatment for the removal of unwanted hair using a professional epilation machine.

The procedure 

During epilation, an ultrafine sterile probe is inserted adjacent to the hair follicle. The skin is not pierced and does not scar. A small electrical current is then passed through the probe. With regular treatments, the hair follicle is completely destroyed. Please note that a single treatment will not achieve destruction.
