Laser Hair Removal Vs. Electrolysis – Summer’s Coming….

April 17, 2013 by Linda

If you’re sick of shaving hard to reach places or dealing with unwanted facial hair permanent removal can be very appealing. Of course you must then make the decision between laser hair removal and electrolysis, which can be tricky. There are pros and cons to each treatment type.

The Differences

Laser hair removal works by targeting melanin so it is most effective on areas with dark hair such as the under arms, bikini area, legs and arms. These areas have fully active follicles and are treated in sections during laser hair removal.

Electrolysis targets each follicle individually. A skilled, qualified technician inserts a sterile tube into each follicle and shocks it. This method is a little more particular and time consuming, but 100% effective. The follicles don’t have to be active or the skin dark. For this reason, electrolysis is commonly used on the face and other small areas.

Choosing treatment can be confusing, that’s why it’s important to have professionals, like those at Pretty Face Medispa talk to you about options. They will help you come to the decision that best meets your needs.

I had filler and microdermabrasion done at pretty face by Linda and am obsessed with the results! Linda carefully sculpted my cheekbones in a way that is both natural yet noticeable. I have also gone... for facials here which have cleared up my acne. Linda is truly an expert in her field and I always feel very safe in her hands. I am extremely happy with the results and will be returning.read more

I struggled with facial hair most of my life and spent every morning tweezing and clipping. Thought I would be doing that for the rest of my life. Then I found "Pretty Face Medi Spa"!!!!! Linda is a... miracle worker! (It didn't happen overnight)But in less than 1 year, with electrolysis, I am basically (facial)hair-free. Today was my last visit and it felt like a tremendous weight has been lifted. Of course I may need a clean up every now and then, but my appointments will be few and far between. THANK YOU LINDA. It was a wonderful experience working with you. You are certainly a skilled professional and I look forward your other services in the future.read more

Had permanent eyeliner and acne scar removal. Had an incredible experience! Great service, very professional, very friendly, and so happy looking at myself in the mirror now. Linda talked me through... both processes and was great at explaining everything before doing anything to me. Definitely recommend!read more

Had a wonderful experience at Pretty Face MedispaLinda was very professional and knowledgeable about finding the right procedure that would benefit me the most.I am a middle aged man that tries to... take care of myself and she suggested some botox, a chemical peel and some fillers.These procedures dramatically improved my appearance and I plan on making this my go to place for skin care.The one aspect I thought separated this spa from others was the personal care and time taken to explain the process that would take place and the realistic outcome that could be be achieved.I am very pleased with the results and I find the prices very reasonably compared to other places.read more

Over the years, I have gone to Linda for electrolysis and laser hair removal. I have done nothing but sing her praises for the precise, professional, and permanent solution. I have not had to touch... my eyebrows in about 3 years - they are always the perfect shape and size. LOVE these results, and so appreciate the calming nature of her space. She has been so flexible with my work schedule, all of her work and professionalism is much appreciated! She is truly a master at her craft!read more
