Binsina Skin & Laser Clinic offers professional electrolysis treatments for the body, providing an effective solution for long term hair removal. Electrolysis is a method that uses a tiny electrical current to target individual hair follicles, disrupting their ability to grow hair.

This treatment is suitable for various areas of the body, including the legs, arms, underarms, and bikini line, and is particularly effective for treating stubborn or coarse hair.

During the procedure, a fine probe is carefully inserted into the hair follicle, delivering a small, controlled electric current. This process destroys the follicle, preventing future hair growth. Electrolysis is precise, allowing for treatment of small or sensitive areas without affecting the surrounding skin. Multiple sessions may be required, depending on the area and hair density, to achieve long-lasting results.

As a safe and FDA-approved treatment, electrolysis provides a permanent, effective solution for those looking to remove unwanted body hair, with minimal discomfort and downtime.

Benefits of Electrolysis

Electrolysis offers effective, permanent hair removal for the body, providing smooth, hair-free skin with long-lasting results.

  • Long Term Hair Removal: Electrolysis destroys hair follicles, ensuring long-lasting, often permanent hair reduction for various areas of the body.
  • Safe and Precise: A fine probe targets individual hair follicles, providing accurate treatment without damaging surrounding skin.
  • Suitable for All Skin Types: Electrolysis is effective on all skin tones and hair colours, making it versatile for different individuals.
  • Minimal Discomfort: The treatment is generally well-tolerated, with minimal discomfort and no significant downtime post-procedure.

Is Electrolysis right for you?

With electrolysis, results are typically seen after several sessions, as hair grows in different cycles. Most clients notice a reduction in hair density and thickness after 3-6 treatments, depending on the area and hair type.

Complete hair removal may take longer for larger or denser areas. After the full course of treatment, patients may achieve permanent hair reduction, though occasional maintenance sessions may be required to address any regrowth or fine hairs that may appear over time. These maintenance treatments are usually spaced further apart as the need for them diminishes. Overall, electrolysis offers long-lasting results with minimal upkeep.
