Thanks for offering that information V-Susie. Truly, there are no adverse effects when electrolysis is performed. I do ask my pregnant ladies to discuss this with their physician and decide together whether to proceed or not. I use thermolysis if they decide to go forward. Written permission from their physician is attached to the chart.

An extra thought: Some electrologists do not want to treat a pregnant woman. Period. It’s not that electrolysis would harm the fetus, but rather they fear a lawsuit. The market is saturated with shark attornies ready to bite away at anyone or anthing that they think may have had a hand in causing a less than perfect baby to emerge.
