Permanent Solution Electrolysis

The studio's work centers on electrolysis, a hair removal method the business describes as the only one the FDA recognizes as permanent.

Every visit starts with a confidential consultation, which is complimentary for new clients. After that, the electrologist builds a treatment plan around the areas to be treated and the amount of hair involved. Sessions run from about 15 minutes to more than an hour, and the number of treatments is set in that plan. Defining brows or treating ears takes less time than heavy back growth, and the business notes that regular appointments help clients reach permanence sooner than sporadic ones.

The studio uses an Apilus Senior 3g unit and offers shortwave (thermolysis), galvanic and blend methods. Skin is usually red after treatment, and the business says that redness typically fades within the day. The studio asks clients to avoid plucking, waxing, threading or tweezing before an appointment, since that reduces how many hairs can be removed, and to avoid caffeine for a few hours beforehand for a more comfortable session. Shaving between treatments is fine.

A wide range of clients is served, including men (beard, neck, ear, back and chest), transgender clients seeking facial and body hair removal as part of gender transition, teenagers, athletes, and clients dealing with hair growth linked to PCOS or hormonal changes. The business says electrolysis suits all skin tones and hair types, including coarse, curly or wavy hair, and nearly all body areas, and it treats breasts, sensitive areas and the groin. Clients under 16 need a parent or legal guardian present.

Treatment plans are built after a confidential consultation and adjusted to each client's needs. The studio's stated priorities are comfort, safety, confidentiality and successful treatment.

A client describes the studio as clean and serene.
