Electrolysis (electrolysis and thermolysis) is a classic, proven method of permanent hair removal that has been successfully used for over a century. Even today, it remains the only method that can guarantee 100% permanent hair removal for all types of unwanted hair, regardless of color (especially effective for white hairs), hair texture, or skin tone, particularly in small areas of the face.

How Electrolysis Works and What It Achieves
Electrolysis permanently destroys the hair’s regenerative cells responsible for its growth by inserting a very fine, sterile needle into the hair follicle and delivering an electric current to it.

Modern technology has advanced this treatment to make it more effective, faster, and virtually painless with the Apilus system—an innovative electrolysis device that combines the traditional method of permanent hair removal with cutting-edge advancements.

The Apilus system features an advanced electronic mechanism that adjusts the electrical parameters based on the type of hair being treated (whether fine or coarse). The specific type of current used ensures hair destruction within milliseconds, making the procedure virtually painless. Additionally, Apilus is designed to precisely target only the hair follicle’s regenerative cells, leaving surrounding tissues intact and protecting the skin.

Under the skilled hands of a trained and specialized esthetician, Apilus electrolysis is performed hair by hair. A sterile needle is inserted into each follicle, and the application of current causes thermal destruction of the hair. While this method is highly effective for all types of unwanted hair, it is best suited for small areas like the face.

For larger areas, such as the legs, other hair removal methods are typically preferred, as they work by “sweeping” across the skin rather than treating individual hairs, making the process faster. However, because these methods cannot effectively target all types of hair—such as light-colored peach fuzz or white hairs—Apilus is often used after other treatments to permanently remove any remaining hairs. Its effectiveness is independent of hair color or skin phototype.

• In many cases, combining two hair removal methods provides the best results in the shortest time.

• The ideal treatment is selected based on all hair characteristics (color, texture, skin phototype, etc.). This requires in-depth knowledge of hair anatomy and the causes of excessive hair growth, as well as continuous training in the latest permanent hair removal technologies and their proper application.

* The hair removal needle is not charged and is always disposable.
