Central Texas Professional Electrolysis

Central Texas Professional Electrolysis is a permanent hair removal practice in Round Rock, Texas. The practice's website says it treats most body areas, among them the face, brows, legs, arms, underarms, back, abdomen, breasts and bikini line. Three electrolysis techniques are offered, Shortwave (Thermolysis), Galvanic and Blend, and each treatment plan is adjusted to the individual client's skin and hair.

Because hair grows in cycles, most clients need several sessions. The first appointment includes a consultation, and the first treatment may be shorter. A complimentary consultation is available, and topical anesthetics can be recommended to ease discomfort during treatment. Pricing depends on the type and length of treatment, so prospective clients are asked to contact the practice for a quote. Payment is due at the time of treatment, and cash, checks and major credit cards are accepted.

Before an appointment, clients are asked to avoid tweezing, waxing and depilatory creams for at least two weeks, though shaving is fine. After treatment, clients should avoid excessive touching, sun exposure, tanning beds and heavy sweating for 24 to 48 hours. Cancellations need 24 hours' notice. Late arrivals are charged from the originally scheduled time, and appointments may not be extended. Clients under 16 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.

The practice follows infection prevention standards set by the American Electrology Association and states that it maintains high standards of sanitation and sterilization. The business is a member of the Better Business Bureau. The site describes electrolysis as the only method the FDA recognizes as permanent hair removal.

Treatments are tailored to each client's skin and hair, following the infection prevention standards of the American Electrology Association.
