      Aww really I'm so happy for you! Electrolysis is amazing! The hair on my chin use to be very dark and thick - it was electrolysis which improved it before I started practising laser. I am trying to decide whether I should finish off with electrolysis - thank you for sharing it helps with my decision :)

    I have been epilating my face, 3 days a week, for the past month. Then shave & let it rest. My face should be hair free in the next week or two. Granted, It's painful, but very effective. About 95% of the hair is gone at this point.

    I had both electrolysis and laser hair for my face. I am able to grow hair on the sides of my face, the chin, and neck. I have to shave every day and I hate it. Nothing has worked for me bc of my PCOS. It didn't go away and come back, it just never worked. I've been on BC for 8 years now as well as Metformin. The only thing I have left to try is Vaniqa, but my insurance won't cover it and it's way too expensive. I hate my skin bc of my PCOS.

    Thanks for this video! For information, I use the Braun Silk Epil at home (it's an IPL like the Philips showed) and on some areas like my arms it did an AMAZING job. It's not permanent but the hair is a lot thiner and grows back very slowly in comparison with before. It's not really working on every area though, at least for me. But it's definitely a big help!

    • @melisatesbel
      @melisatesbel  7 років тому +7

      It's hard to say which one would be better as everyones body is different. If you go for electrolysis remember that you shouldn't feel the hair pluck during the process - this means they're not doing it correctly. Keep in mind that electrolysis does one hair at a time - so if you have a lot of hair it will take longer. Laser covers a large area so it's faster but you need to make sure you choose a good type of laser for your skin type. You can find places that do free consultations - see what they recommend for you and then you can make your decision. I wish the best of luck to both of you! x

      I would say electrolysis is more successful and is the only permanent one in comparison to laser hair removal. Well, this is the conclusion I've come to after MUCH research. I also suffer from hisutism. Laser hair removal tackles the pigment in the hair but electrolysis kills the hair at the root.

      Hi there, if you click on the SHR link that I put in the description box, you can have a look to see if there are any locations near you that provide the same laser machine. I haven't tried any other places so I can't recommend anywhere else because I'm not 100% sure.
      Definitely look into electrolysis too as this is considered a more permanent treatment! I can't say where I had electrolysis from yet - I haven't asked the lady yet. You can have a look on Treatwell and check the reviews for places that provide electrolysis! I wish you the best of luck finding a suitable place for you!

    Hello! I like your video. Very imformative. I also have a hormonal disorder. Thyroid disease. Not the same as yours but mine also causes excessive hair growth on the face. I have been battling this hair growth for over 8 years now. Not fun. Anyway I started electrolysis just a few months ago in the beginning of June. I have lots of mixed feelings on the results I'm getting. After some appointments I feel like it's improving but others not so much. I have extremely fair and sensitive skin. I was never able to wax or use hair removal cream. I was always afraid to get laser cause I didn't want to shave my face. How long do you think it will take to have good results from electrolysis? Do you think I should try laser as well? Like combine both therapies.

I've been to lots of people who were kind as could be and claimed to be professionals but had no kill. They have to have more than just the knowledge and know how. They have to be truly skilled.

It all grew back and may have made it worse. The hair on my body was growing back very very slow which was good but it's like it just puts the hair to sleep.
