Electrolysis
Electrolysis
Electrolysis is the only hair removal method recognized as permanent by both Health Canada and the FDA. Unlike laser, which targets melanin in the hair, electrolysis works by delivering a precise electrical current to each individual hair follicle, destroying its ability to regrow.
Success depends on treating hair during the anagen (active growth) stage - since it takes 8-12 weeks for hair to produce and grow to the surface, multiple sessions are needed to catch each follicle at the right time.
At Skin Precision MD, our certified electrologist uses three proven methods - Galvanic, Thermolysis, and Blend - to deliver comfortable, effective treatments with lasting results for all hair types, skin tones, and gender identities.
Treatment Options

Permanent removal of unwanted facial hair including upper lip, chin, cheeks, eyebrows, and sideburns. Ideal for hormonal hair growth and hair colors that laser cannot treat.
