Electrolysis can provide an effective treatment option to combat hormone-driven hair growth from ovaries. Unlike temporary solutions like tweezing, shaving, and creams, electrolysis offers permanent hair removal that can permanently diminish or eliminate growth in any part of the body – and for athletes specifically this means less friction and chafing and more time spent training!
Ingrown Hairs
Ingrown hairs are raised, itchy spots caused when hair coils back into your skin instead of rising out from its follicle as it should. They resemble pimples, often filled with pus, and may occur anywhere on your body; they’re particularly common where people shave, tweeze or wax their hair, such as beard areas for men and legs, armpits and bikini areas in women.
Preventing ingrown hairs by using a single-blade razor and applying a cool washcloth after each shave can help lessen irritation of follicles and lessening their likelihood of returning into skin folds. Chemical exfoliators that break apart cell connections on your surface skin may also help.
Folliculitis, an inflammation around the hair follicles, can sometimes result in ingrown hairs. This infection can be caused by shaving, tweezing, waxing or using hair removal creams that block pores; or by scratching an ingrown hair with tweezers or fingernails – an infected ingrown hair will generally appear red, swollen and may discharge yellowish green fluid.
Curly or coarse hair types are more prone to ingrown hairs due to its sharper ends that bend back and reenter the skin more easily than smooth, straight ones. Aging, hormones and wearing tight clothing (girdles or clothing that pushes hair inward toward skin’s fold) may also increase risk factors for ingrowns; medication such as birth control pills or testosterone supplements may speed hair growth further still. Treatment includes using sterile needles, pins or tweezers with alcohol applied around nearby skin to avoid infections; electrolysis uses small needles with mild electrical current zaps that destroys individual follicles one at a time – an alternative option would be using small needles connected to mild electrical current zaps.
Athletes
Friction, chafing and tape are among the many factors driving athletes towards hair-free skin. Electrolysis offers permanent hair removal for athletes so they can spend more time training than worrying about unwanted hair growth.
Hormonal changes are often responsible for unwanted hair growth. If this is happening to you, electrolysis could be an ideal way to remedy this problem.
Electrolysis stands out from other hair removal methods by being effective on all skin tones and types. Electrolysis is the only permanent hair removal option that works on every shade and type of hair imaginable, including ingrown hairs around breasts that result from frequent tweezing/shaving or wearing tight bras; electrolysis provides a solution.
PCOS
Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) can be the source of unwanted hair growth, and affects 1 out of every 10 people with ovaries. Unfortunately, many go undiagnosed and untreated; electrolysis offers women with PCOS an effective solution to achieve beautiful, hairless skin.
Electrolysis is the only permanent hair removal method capable of effectively treating all parts of your body, including delicate areas like breast. Shaving and tweezing may only make matters worse; only electrolysis provides permanent hair removal that works on these delicate spots.
Electrolysis provides an effective and long-lasting solution for hair removal from dark skin tones, providing women and men with all skin tones an opportunity for permanent hair reduction no matter where it grows on the body or face.

To see if this revolutionary solution could work for you schedule an initial consultation appointment with one of their licensed electrologists today.
Dark Skin
If you have dark skin tone, hair removal treatments might seem impossible to work on your delicate body areas. But electrolysis has proven highly successful for all skin tones. “Electrolysis is very effective at permanently eliminating unwanted hair,” according to Husain. Using a small metal probe it delivers low-level electrical current pulses directly to each unwanted follicle that it then destroys with an electrolytic solution.
Women and men suffering from PCOS often develop ingrown hairs along the breast area due to friction from bras or tight clothing, leading to painful bumps or rashes in this sensitive region. Consulting a dermatologist may help identify and treat this condition more effectively.

Teenagers
As teenagers mature, their bodies undergo many changes – one such change being an increase in unwanted hair growth on either their face or chest, which can be particularly embarrassing for some teens. Electrolysis may therefore be the perfect option for treating such unwanted growth in teenage bodies.
Unwanted hair growth may be caused by hormonal fluctuations, pregnancy and medications; no matter its source, however, unwanted hair can have a devastating impact on one’s self-image and self-worth.
