What is Electrology?


Electrology is the practice of electrical hair removal to permanently remove human hair from the body. Electrolysis is the process of removing hair using electricity.



In electrolysis, a qualified expert called an electrologist slides a hair-thin, solid metal probe into each hair follicle without perforating the skin (when embedded appropriately). Electricity is conveyed to the follicle by the probe, which causes localized harm to the regions that create hairs, either through the arrangement of caustic sodium hydroxide (the galvanic strategy), overheating (thermolysis), or both (the blend method).

METHODS:


There are three methods used in Electrology. They are:

  • Galvanic method
  • Thermolysis
  • Blend method

1. Galvanic Method:


In the Galvanic Method, a positive ground power supply which delivers 0-3 milliamperes into the body. The follicular probe is the cathode of an electrolytic cell. Sodium hydroxide developed at the cathode by means of chemical electrolysis destroys the hair matrix cells. Modern galvanic hair removers automatically adjust the voltage to maintain a constant current.

2. Thermolysis:


It is also known as radio frequency (RF), shortwave or diathermy.

In thermolysis, a radio transmitter, usually with an output of about 0-8 watts at a frequency of 13.56 MHz. RF energy radiates from the probe tip to tissue within about a millimeter. Thermolysis works by heating the hair matrix cells to about 48 to 50 °C (118 to 122 °F), causing electrocoagulation.

3. Blend method:


In the Blend method, the above-mentioned Galvanic Method and Thermolysis are combined. It uses both RF and direct current to remove the hair from the body.
