Save your money and read my story. Could electrolysis just be an urban legend – for example, could it not remove hair permanently, instead only removing it slightly longer than simply tweezing it would? All of the practitioners, and articles (which of course, are written by practitioners) tell us that after “numerous” sessions, the hair will stop coming back. Yet that “numerous” isn’t defined. Even the FDA allows the definition of “permanant” to be anything that removes hair for 6 months – if the hair grows back one day after 6 months, the process can still be called “permanent”!!!!! I didn’t even get 6 months worth out of my group of treatments.

I’ve had 11 sessions on my eyebrows – all since last June – this is December. Not one bit of progress: my last session was about three weeks ago, and already I have just as many hairs showing as I did before I ever started. That’s $500 I’ll never see again.

Thanks FDA, and all of the practitioners out there who don’t whisper to us that guess what, permanent does not mean permanent. And we are supposed to believe anyone? About anything?

Today I tried to go online to see if there are any professional organizations that electrologists would have formed. Just about every legitimate profession has some type of group somewhere, even if some states don’t required licenses for that profession, people like to put acronyms after their names in the yellow pages, so they join professional groups so they can do that. The offices in my town only list the following acronyms:
GPEA – the only thing I found online for this is Government Paperwork Elimination Act!
ASLMS – I went online and found that this stands for American Society for Laser Medicine and Surgey – NOT Electrolysis!! (and no, laser is not even a better option – it too, is not permanent)
AHA – I cound’t find anything logical that this stands for. Maybe the person in our yellow pages just made that one up.

What kind of ridiculous idea is this? Does anyone have anything that is actually “Permanent” to say about their own experience? And if so, what kind of equipment was used?
