As the only method approved by the FDA for permanent hair removal, electrolysis involves utilizing a needle/probe device that’s inserted into the hair follicle and discharges a small amount of energy that destroys the hair growth tissue. When done right, the regenerative ability of the hair follicle is permanently eliminated. 

There is no good area or bad area to start electrolysis for a transgender person.

​

A most common pattern:

-Face first and foremost

-Highly visible areas such as shoulders, hands, feet, eyebrows, abdomen etc

​

Frequency of treatments two hours every  4-6 weeks

Facial hair growth during menopause is typically caused by an increase in the ratio of androgen (testosterone) to estrogen. This does not necessarily point to a problem, but the increase in facial hair can be bothersome.

Electrolysis will help manage unwanted hair growth.
