You will discuss the area you want treated, review relevant health and hair removal history, and leave with clear guidance on how to prepare and what results to expect over time. ## What your electrolysis consultation covers Your consultation is built around deciding on the safest, most effective route to permanent hair removal for the specific area you want treated. - Discussion of your goals and target areas (for example upper lip, chin, jawline, bikini line, underarms, or abdomen). - Review of current and past hair removal methods (shaving, waxing, threading, depilatory creams, laser) and how they affect regrowth. - Visual assessment of hair density, growth direction and skin response in the area. - Health, skin and medication checks to flag anything that could affect treatment timing or healing. - Plain-English explanation of how electrolysis works, what the treatment feels like, and how redness or swelling usually settles. - A realistic treatment outline covering growth cycles, expected frequency, and the idea of “clearances” for the area. - Preparation guidance, including how to arrive (hair length, skincare, sun exposure, caffeine, and pain relief options if appropriate). - Aftercare guidance for the first 24 to 72 hours to reduce the chance of irritation or post-inflammatory pigmentation. - If suitable, the option of a small test treatment so you can feel the sensation and see how your skin reacts. ### Reasons people book an electrolysis consultation Electrolysis is often considered when you need precise, permanent hair removal or when other methods have not been a good fit. - You have light, grey, white or red hair that is not usually responsive to laser. - You are dealing with persistent facial hair growth linked to hormones, PCOS or menopause. - You want to treat a small, defined area where accuracy matters, such as the upper lip or nipples. - You are planning gender-affirming hair removal and want a structured plan and realistic timescales. - You are prone to ingrowns and want a method that targets individual follicles. ### How the electrolysis consultation appointment runs The appointment is practical and information-led, with time for questions. - Quick discussion of your goals, timeline and the area you want treated. - Review of health and skincare factors that may affect treatment. - Assessment of hair growth pattern and skin condition. - Explanation of recommended session spacing and why consistency matters. - If appropriate, a brief test treatment and immediate aftercare advice. ### After your consultation: next steps for starting electrolysis You will leave knowing what to book and how to prepare. - Book your first treatment session with an agreed starting schedule. - Follow the preparation advice so hairs can be treated effectively at the root. - Use the aftercare steps after each session to keep the skin calm while you build progress over multiple growth cycles.

Everyone is very friendly and kind. ## Frequently Asked Questions Will electrolysis work on blonde, grey or white hair? Yes. Electrolysis treats the follicle directly, so hair colour is not a limiting factor. Your consultation will confirm whether the area and hair growth pattern are suitable. Do I need to stop waxing or threading before electrolysis? Yes, in most cases you will need to stop removing hairs from the root so there is enough growth to treat. At your consultation you will be told how long to switch to shaving before your first session. Can electrolysis be used for facial hair such as the upper lip and chin? Yes, facial areas are common treatment zones for electrolysis. The consultation helps plan session frequency and aftercare so the skin stays as calm as possible. How many electrolysis sessions will I need? Electrolysis is a process rather than a one-off, because hairs grow in cycles. Your consultation will give a realistic outline based on the area, density, and how consistently you can attend. Is electrolysis safe if I have a skin condition or take medication? It can be, but some skin conditions and medicines affect healing or sensitivity. During your consultation you will discuss your medical history so treatment can be planned safely, or postponed if needed.
