    Before Your Electrolysis Appointment at Our Hampstead Salon

    To maximise your results of your electrolysis session in Hampstead, we recommend a few simple preparation steps. Before your session, it’s best to avoid sunbathing and the use of tanning equipment or self-tanning creams.

    For the weeks leading up to your appointment, it’s also important to avoid any hair removal methods that pluck, wax, or use depilatory creams on the intended treatment area. This ensures that hair follicles are in the right stage of growth for the electrolysis to be most effective.

    Our expert team at our Hampstead salon is always on hand to guide you with comprehensive advice and to address any queries during your initial consultation to make sure you are thoroughly ready for the treatment.

    During Your Electrolysis Appointment at LuxWax Hampstead

    Upon your visit to our Hampstead salon for Electrolysis treatment, our team will ensure your experience with us is smooth, comfortable, and effective. The time required for the session will depend on the treatment area’s size and hair density, but generally appointments will last from a quarter of an hour to a full hour.

    During your Electrolysis treatment, a fine probe delivers a gentle electrical current to the hair follicles, specifically targeting the growth cells, and permanently reducing hair growth. Our treatment uses sophisticated techniques and the latest to maintain precision and comfort. You can always be confident that you will be in expert hands for the duration of your Electrolysis session.

    After Your Electrolysis Appointment

    Proper aftercare is critical to maximise benefits of your electrolysis treatment. Post-treatment, it’s common to notice some redness or a bit of swelling at the treated site; however, these symptoms normally reduce within several hours.

    To ensure optimal protection for your skin after the session, refrain from sunbathing, taking hot showers, visiting saunas, and using swimming pools for at least one day. Our specialists at LuxWax Hampstead will offer tailored aftercare advice, which may include applying soothing lotions or gels and cleansing the area with care. Adhering to these recommendations will aid in maximising treatment effectiveness and minimising any side effects.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    is electrolysis permanent?

    Electrolysis is highly regarded for its effectiveness in permanent hair removal, being the sole method recognised by the FDA for safety, efficacy, and permanence. In contrast to laser hair removal, which was introduced in the year 2000 and whose long-term effects are still under observation, electrolysis boasts a well-established history of successful outcomes.

    does electrolysis hurt?

    The level of discomfort experienced during electrolysis can differ among individuals. While some may feel a sensation similar to stinging or pricking, the application of numbing creams is an option to help alleviate any discomfort.

    what areas can be treated with electrolysis?

    Electrolysis demonstrates versatility and efficacy across all body regions. Commonly treated areas encompass facial regions such as the upper lip, chin, cheeks, beard line, eyebrows, and the area between the brows, alongside regions like the breasts, underarms, and bikini area.

    how does electrolysis hair removal work?

    The process of electrolysis for hair removal involves the insertion of a small probe into individual hair follicles, administering a mild electrical current to eradicate the hair root, thereby inhibiting future hair growth.

    what is electrolysis hair removal?

    For more than 140 years, electrolysis has been utilised as a method for permanent hair removal. A skilled therapist inserts a minuscule probe into the hair follicle, applying a high-frequency alternating electrical current. This current heats the adjacent tissue, rendering the follicle permanently distorted and disabled.

    how many electrolysis treatments are needed?

    There are many factors that directly influence the number of treatments needed, such as:

    • Electrolysis can only be applied to a hair if it is in the anagen (growing) phase
    • Hormones
    • Medication
    • Hair density and size of the area treated
    • Skin sensitivity

    Generally, treatments should be carried out in fortnightly intervals to ensure the visible hairs are in the anagen phase. As the treatments progress and the hair growth diminishes, treatment sessions will become shorter with longer gaps between sessions. Eventually, you will come back once a year for a “touch up” if any new hairs were to appear.

    how much does electrolysis hair removal cost?

    Check out our electrolysis price list to see how much we charge at Luxwax.

    does electrolysis work on all hair and skin types?

    Electrolysis is suitable for all hair and skin types. It can be used on any colour or thickness of hair and works effectively on various skin tones. It is considered a safe and permanent hair removal method for all individuals.

    It was my first visit to LuxWax and it exceeded all expectations. What a lovely salon. Extremely clean and a great vibe. Juliana was extremely professional and really friendly. Highly recommend for body waxing !

    Happy Customer

    Best wax I have ever had! Linzi was personable, professional, caring & welcoming. I had the ‘Full Monty’ with their own wax, which was painless and left my skin feeling soft & smooth. Linzi also gave me an aftercare package! Such a lovely and personal touch to a great experience. Couldn’t recommend Linzi and LuxWax more!

    Happy Customer

    I have also just started a laser hair removal programme for my bikini area and cannot recommend it enough! Really painless and so effective - I have seen results after just 2 sessions - I am so happy with the results and would highly recommend!

    Happy Customer

    They are professional, do a great job and are nice - a truly “often imitated but never equalled” great experience. I was looking to change from a salon in the West End I used to go to.

    Happy Customer

    The place was beautiful. Service was great, professionalism was a 10/10 I went for a wax. Every question I had was answered with detail. She made me feel so comfortable and gave me great aftercare advice. She was so professional and friendly I will definitely be booking again!
