Hair removal has been a human obsession since the days of
ancient Egypt. Women used abrasives and chemical substances
like our present day depilatories. Other hair removal
methods have included pumice stone, quicklime, sharpened
stones and seashells. But the results were always the same,
the hair returned. Then in 1875, Dr. Charles Michel, an
ophthalmologist, developed a technique to remove ingrown
eyelashes. Utilizing a fine wire attached to a battery, a
small amount of electrical current destroyed the follicle
forever. From that day to the present, electrolysis is still
recognized as the only safe, effective and permanent
form of hair removal.
 Electrolysis,
when practiced by a trained, skilled and professional
electrologist results in permanently hair-free skin.
