Searching for hair removal in Utah County usually means choosing between laser and electrolysis. Here is how they differ, from an electrologist at Elevate Electrolysis in Orem.

How each method works

Laser uses light that is absorbed by pigment in the hair. Electrolysis treats each follicle directly with a tiny probe and a small electrical current, so it does not rely on light or pigment.

Hair color and skin tone

Because laser depends on pigment, it can miss blonde, red, gray and fine hair. Electrolysis works on all hair colors and all skin tones, which is one of its biggest advantages.

Permanence

Electrolysis is the only FDA approved method of permanent hair removal.

Which one should you choose?

If your hair is light, gray, red or fine, or you want a permanent result on a smaller area like the chin, upper lip or brows, electrolysis is usually the better fit. Your free consultation with Erin is the easiest way to find out what makes sense for your hair and goals.
