The radio frequencies will then penetrate the follicles and damage the hair roots.The electrolysis devices work by delivering electrical impulses to the hair follicles in the skin and damaging them. The primary or electrolysis is to reduce and eventually stop hair production. The time it takes for the treatment to be effective varies from person to person.The hair removal treatment takes anywhere from 6 months to a year for the process to be complete, depending on how much hair is present, how many follicles are still active, and how long you had unwanted

hair growth.

Both laser and electrolysis target the hair follicles under the skin surface. Laser therapy uses mild radiation through high-heat lasers. The laser treatment results tend to last longer than other hair removal methods like shaving and waxing, but the results are not permanent. Electrolysis works by inserting a thin needle into the skin and shortwave radio frequencies to the follicle to stop hair growth. The process damages the hair follicles to prevent growth. FDA also approves electrolysis as a hair removal treatment.
