Unlike other hair removal options, professionally-performed electrolysis eliminates unwanted hair permanently with unsurpassed results.  Moreover, it does so for the largest variety of skin and hair types.  Laser promoters compare laser to electrolysis although laser-assisted hair removal is considered a temporary method.  It has not been evaluated for long-term safety of the patient's skin and health.  Waxing, threading, and tweezing are alike.  However, ingrown hairs and discoloration may result.  Additionally, they may cause an increase in hair growth activity.  Depilatories and shaving can cause an irritation to the skin while the hair regrows quickly.  These methods can require a lifetime of maintenance.  Many can appear inexpensive but cost more due to long-term use and are found to be inconvenient.  Electrolysis works on most areas of the body to give you smooth, sleek, healthy-looking skin.  No other solution claims such universal acceptability and success.
