Electrolysis after failed Laser Hair Removal

I’ve been following so many posts on this forum and I really am grateful that such a community exists because I feel so upset and down all the time due to hair issues, and I know I am not the only one. The help and success stories on here are really beneficial and I hope someone may help me with my hairy plights.

I have always had very fine black peach fuzz on my face due to genetics and slightly elevated testosterone. I decided to take the plunge and do laser hair removal on my face, I should have researched more thoroughly. I have done this for two years to no avail. The hair is much thicker then it ever was, it won’t even bleach anymore and I decided to stop paying after thousands of dollars a couple of months back. I have the hair all over my lower cheeks and it has been induced on my neck.Some hairs even grew back in the forms of ingrowns as well, and now I have hyper pigmentation issues which I never had previously. I avoid going out and I always feel not worthy as a girl. I can’t help it. Even my own family makes fun of me and my mom even says it will go away on its own, but she is just wishfully thinking.

I would love to start electrolysis if this is right for me. I know this requires patience but I really would do anything at this point. I live in Brooklyn, so if anyone has any good recommendations for skilled electrologists it would be greatly appreciated. Any advice really is needed as I am new to this and need advice from experience or work. I don’t know if my hormone problem will make this hair removal impossible. Please and thank you for time.

I’m not sure how far Arlene would be for you, but you can try contacting her for a consultation or she may be able to direct you to someone closer:

Good luck

Thank you for your reply, I will definitely look into her. I have a couple of names written down for closer to my area, is there anything in particular I should be looking out for? So far I have Catherine LaGrutta and Elyse Mancher as viable choices. Has anyone had any experience with them?
