Silky Smooth Electrolysis

Silky Smooth Electrolysis is an electrolysis business in Webster, NY, run by professional electrologist Patti Nadiak, who has practiced since 1994. Many of its clients are referred by physicians, dermatologists, OB/GYNs and fertility specialists who treat PCOS, both in Rochester and in nearby areas. Some have come on the referral of Dr. Rosiland Hayes, MD, an OB/GYN who specializes in reproductive endocrinology.

Permanent electrolysis is performed on most of the face and body, from brows and chin to the upper and lower lip, jawline, sides of the face, chest, underarms, abdomen, bikini area, fingers, toes, legs and back. The practice also works with hair linked to hormones or PCOS, athletes, delicate zones, teens, and hair that is curly, wavy or coarse. Anyone under 16 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.

During it, factors that could be affecting hair growth are assessed, and a customized treatment program is built for each client. Because hair grows in cycles, more than one appointment is usually needed to permanently clear an area. Aftercare products are recommended to suit each client's skin and treatment program.

The business states that electrolysis is the only method the FDA has approved for permanent hair removal, and that it follows CDC and NYS Board of Health guidelines. It also says it has been featured in Rochester Women Online Magazine. Pricing is by treatment length, starting at $50 for a 15-minute session, and payment is discussed at consultation. Debit and credit cards are not accepted.

Treats electrolysis as a medically accepted option and aims to explain how it compares with laser, with each treatment plan tailored to the client.
