⚡ Electrolysis Hair Removal at Invogue Skin & Beauty

The only FDA-approved method for permanent hair reduction removal.

Electrolysis uses a fine probe and gentle electric current to target and destroy individual hair follicles, preventing future hair growth. It works on all hair types and skin colors and is especially effective for small areas or stubborn hairs.

🌟 Benefits of Electrolysis:

  • Permanent hair reduction removal after a course of treatments

  • Works on any skin tone or hair color (unlike laser/IPL)

  • Precision targeting—ideal for eyebrows, upper lip, chin, bikini line, and other small areas

  • Safe, FDA-approved, and minimally invasive

  • No downtime; skin may appear slightly pink but heals quickly

📅 Recommended Treatment Plan:

  • Typically requires 12–20 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart (depending on hair growth cycles and treatment area)

  • Initial treatments focus on reducing hair density; maintenance sessions to clear any remaining hairs

  • Sessions usually last 15–60 minutes depending on the size of the area

🔍 Pre-Treatment Care:

  • Avoid plucking, waxing, or electrolysis for at least 4 weeks before treatment (hair must be visible for targeting)

  • Shave the treatment area 24–48 hours before your appointment

  • Avoid sun exposure and tanning beds to minimize skin sensitivity

  • Avoid retinoids, exfoliants, or harsh skincare products 3 days prior

🛡️ Post-Treatment Care:

  • Expect slight redness or swelling for a few hours; apply cold compresses if needed

  • Keep the treated area clean and dry for 24 hours

  • Avoid heat (hot showers, saunas, exercise) for 24 hours

  • No picking or scratching the area

  • Apply a gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer or aloe vera gel to soothe the skin

  • Avoid sun exposure or use high SPF on the treated area for at least a week

  • Avoid makeup or harsh skincare products on the treated area for 24 hours
