what is electrology
The Definition of Electrology:
Electrology is a FDA approved hair removal method that uses a small probe to deliver a low-level electric current to destroy hair growth cells in individual hair follicles. A trained electrologist inserts a thin wire into the follicle, which is located under the skin’s surface, and sends an electric current down the wire to the bottom of the follicle. This heats up and kills the hair root and follicle, preventing future hair growth and causing existing hair to fall out.
