Electrolysis
Electrolysis is the only permanent and medically approved method of hair removal currently available.
At La Belle Jolie we have highly experienced specialists all supported by our senior aesthetician who has over thirty 30 years experience and knowledge to support and guide you through the process. We offer a complimentary consultation and test treatment to enable you to discover everything you need to know about electrolysis and to ensure you are making the best decicions for you.
We also think it's important to point out that we support all genders and that if anyone is just starting their transition journey and is feeling a little unsure please be assured that our caring reception team will ensure you have the warmest of welcomes. We are an inclusive salon and discrimination is not tolerated on any level.
Electrolysis is also used for removing minor blemishes with advanced cosmetic procedures and can be used for the removal of the conditions such as; thread veins, cherry angiomas, dermatosis papulosa nigra, milia, age spots, seborrhoeic warts, sebaceous cysts, skin tags, warts and verrucae.
During your consultation we ascertain if you are suitable for treatment and which type of electrolysis is suitable for you.
This involves a questionnaire about your current health, any medical conditions you may suffer from and any medication you may be taking. Your therapist then explains how the treatment works and the expectations you can have.
This appointment is £45.00 to reserve but it is discounted in full after the consultation, upon checkout.
Appointments that are not attended or cancelled with less than 24 hours notice are subject to our normal cancellation policy and loss of the 50% deposit. Appointments that are not attended are charged at full price.
Please note that all new clients to the salon are required to have this appointment.

A small hair like probe is passed in to the follicle and a small current is released which destroys the follicles ability to create a new hair. It can take several treatments to permanently destroy a follicle but once this has occured the effect is permanent.
To prepare for your initial consultation please ensure that you have not used topical steroids, hydrocortisone or any vitamin A based products such as retinol, retinal, Tretinoin and Retin A for three months prior to treatment.
You will also need to ensure that you do not shave or wax before your treatment, the hair growth you wish to have removed will need to be visible to be treated.
Your therapist will advise you on how long each session needs to be and how you should care for the treated area.
