I undertook electrolysis for a period of about 5 months with basically no results, the details are below. Perhaps you can help me with advice…
The area was both of my shoulders and I went in every week for 2 hours, it took an hour for each shoulder. It probably took about two weeks for the first clearance and then each week was pretty much zapping the regrowth. The electrolysis machine was old but the practisioner seemed to know what she was doing. By all accounts things were going well. The hair came out quite easily, she was fast, and I didn’t get any scarring. My skin was smooth and hair free for about a week between the sessions. It didn’t overly hurt, mainly on the bony areas. And the hairs looked like what I could tell to be root and all when removed.
Anyway, I stopped the treatment after the 4 months because I was moving interstate. She said I could pick it up again anytime in future when I found a new electrolysis practitioner.
Basically by about 3 weeks after I stopped, the hair was back to pretty much exactly the same as when I began! It is now about 4 months after I stopped – no difference.
I spent a lot of money, and time with no result whatsoever. I’m actually puzzled. Like I said, I felt confident with her work and the machine etc. I had in all about 15 solid sessions. What could be wrong???
The details:
My hair was (and still is) dark, but quite fine, too fine for laser, which is what I’ve had in the past. I’m male, 28 years old.
The machine used was an older machine, I can’t remember the name but I posted a link to a similar one on ebay to get feedback and people on here said it would do the trick if the practitioner was skilled.
I want to continue with Electrolysis, but I want results!!! What happened? If you need any more info please ask.
