Common Questions
Is electrolysis permanent?
Yes, electrolysis is the only method that provides permanent hair removal. It works by targeting the hair follicle to prevent future growth.
How does the Apilus system work?
The Apilus system uses a fine probe to deliver a gentle electrical current to the hair follicle, making it a more comfortable and precise treatment compared to traditional methods.
What should I expect during my first session?
Most people feel a slight tingling or warmth. We provide a soothing topical anesthetic to ensure your comfort throughout the entire process.
Is electrolysis safe for all skin types?
Absolutely. Our Wisconsin license and clinical approach ensure that electrolysis is performed safely on all skin tones and types.
How many sessions are typically needed?
The number of sessions varies depending on hair density and skin type, but most clients require a series of 6 to 12 sessions for complete results.
