Beard Removal: So you get rid of those annoying stubble and beard shadow.

Electrolysis is a technique in which an ultra-fine needle goes painlessly into the hair shaft.

Electrolysis is ideal for people where IPL / laser does not work.

An online consultation can take place via video call after appointment. Here we answer all your questions and concerns.

• Do not shave several days beforehand, 2 mm length is required for the electrolyte

It is recommended to start this treatment as early as possible, preferably before the start of hormone treatment. The skin is then a bit thicker and less sensitive.

Electrolysis is the only approved permanent hair removal technique by the FDA.

Yes, we work with topical anesthesia. The face in particular can be sensitive during the treatment and that is why we apply a strong anesthetic ointment in time.

• Lightly overgrown beard: up to 6 to 9 full-time treatment days (Intensive Day Program) plus additional shorter sessions (half days and 2 hours of treatments) to completely remove the remaining hairs.

Then depends on several factors.

People who later want to undergo SRS / GRS / Phalloplasty must certainly be fully depilated in the right places.

If hair still grows out of the neo-vagina after the SRS / GRS operation, this can cause a lot of discomfort such as bleeding, infections, pain, shame and dysphoria.

• FFS: minimum 6 weeks after your last electrolysis session

The Intensive Day Program aims to make great progress in a short time.

•Medicatie 

Inserting the probe is completely painless, followed by an ultra-short current of a few milliseconds. Then it is done and the hair follicle can be removed painlessly.

Unfortunately, there is no health insurance fund in Belgium that reimburses permanent hair removal.

• Growth phase: The only phase where permanent hair removal works is when the hair is in the growth phase.

Shaving is allowed.

To help the skin as well as possible with its recovery, we perform post-treatment after long sessions to combat swelling, redness and discomfort.

Electrolysis is allowed after you have not had chemotherapy or radiation for some time.

• Minimum 2 millimeters. For most people, this is about four days without shaving.

We work with the Apilus Senior 3G, the cream of the crop in electrolysis.

This is perfectly possible. Electrolysis does not damage the tattoo and is the only technique that allows permanent hair removal on tattooed skin.

We also prefer not to get sick and do not want to infect others.

Usually metal implants are not a problem. By this we mean fillings, bridges (teeth), piercings, artificial joints and surgical staples

Electrolysis is already possible from the age of 16, with supervision and written permission from a parent or guardian.

Electrolysis does not cause bleeding because the needle never goes through the skin.

• In case of illness (flu, cold, Covid-19 ...)

When we see ingrown hairs, we remove them from under the skin. With a fine needle, the hair can be painlessly detached and we can still try to treat it. If the hair follicle is infected, we skip this hair for the next session.

Phalloplasty usually involves taking a piece of skin from the forearm or thigh to make a penis. However, it is not always possible to make a urethra (urethra) without taking extra skin from the forearm or thigh.

Of course, you can start whenever you want.

Electrolysis is still the only FDA approved technique that guarantees permanent hair removal.
