The length and number of treatments necessary, varies with each client and the expertise and skill of the electrologist. There are many factors that influence results.

Some influencing factors are:

  • Experience, knowledge and skill of the electrologist.
  • Quality and effectiveness of equipment used.
  • Gender, age and ethnic origin.
  • Type of hair coarseness, depth, straight, wavy, curly.
  • Hair growth cycle, view Normal Hair Growth Cycle.
  • Temporary hair removal methods previously used.
  • Causes effecting the production of the hair growth.
  • Quantity of hair to be permanently removed.
  • Treatment location.
  • Skin type - sensitive or non-sensitive; moist or dry.
  • Intensity tolerance.
  • Commitment to regularly scheduled treatments.
  • Financial resources available.

NOTE: Regularity of treatment is as important as the treatment itself, with optimum results occurring in the shortest time frame.

Electrolysis requires a series of treatments over a period of time. An example time schedule is:

  • Weekly treatments, for a specified length of time.
  • Gradually treatment sessions will shorten, and be required less often.
  • The last few appointments may be spaced several months apart.
