Welcome to hairtell, riffi.
If you google ‘One Touch hair removal’ you will see many choices as to where to buy. I’m sure you can purchase this in the United Kingdom. If you purchase a One Touch from the U.S. then you may have to pay import fees, making it more expensive.
Have you carefully read all the information about doing it yourself here on hairtell? It can be very difficult to do this on yourself,not to mention frustrating, but some people are really adept after much practice. The apparatus itself is fragile and is not meant for long term use.
Where in Europe do you reside? Are there any trained electrologists that can help you out, especially for any facial electrolysis needs?
Thanks,
Dee

So you had electrolysis, but it was more like plucking and after four laser treatments, you say you had more hair than when you started. I don’t know all the variables that were a part of these unsuccessful electrolysis and laser attempts, but if one thing is out of place in this whole scheme of permanent hair removal, then you will not see success. Things such as timing of sessions, equipment used,operator skill, your medical internal environment are examples of things that may hold you back.
Plucking is not good as you stated. I think I’m understanding that there is someone good in Pakistan that you would trust to do electrolysis but, you will not be back in Pak until this time next year to even start treatments.
Would you consider shaving with an electric shaver until then? I would hate for you to spend your money on a One Touch only because there is a high chance that you would not be able to safely perform electrolysis on yourself for facial hair relief. Too risky.
What area(s) do you need help for? How many electrologists are there in your locale where you live in Belgium?
Thanks riffi,
Dee
There are a couple of different “flavors” of the One Touch. Some have a bell/buzzer device built in. Some are the “deluxe” units that just add some low quality tweezers. If you do a Google search on “One Touch” hair removal, then you’ll find various suppliers.
The One Touch comes with a fairly large diameter probe that is also very bendable. When it bends, you need to straighten it out to use it again. It’s life usually depends on how many times you bent it and how satisfied you are in using a squiggly probe. The probes are much more expensive to replace than if you were using professional probes.
Because of the frailty and thickness of the probes, they are not the best to use on the face. Also, for someone learning to do electrolysis, practicing and learning on the face is a very bad idea. You could produce scars that are more hideous than the original hair.
If you have minor assembly skills, you could assemble your own electrolysis unit for not much more than a One Touch. The parts required are listed at http://www.geocities.com/hairfreethere/
Normally, the best recommendation for the face is to see a pro. There may be others in your area that are better than the unfortunate one you visited.
thanks for such a sincere ideas dear i have only six sevan hairs on my chin which are black in colour and hard all other hairs which are under chin are facial hairs.Acually i read too much about one touch that it really works thats y i want to try but as u peolpe told that its not good for face then i will wait like that for one year.In belgium there r not more then three electrolygist but i have not seen any people cured from them but in pak i had seen so many peoples had get rid from hairs forever even my own mother she had more hairs then me but now after some treatments now its 3 years she have no hairs i had seen one touch on ebay of belgium also and on ebay of uk also but dear both r in different prizes.anyhow thank u so much have nice day.
