Electrolysis Hair Removal at Lala’s Electrics
Electrolysis is the only FDA-approved permanent hair removal method, offering a safe and effective solution for unwanted hair. At Lala's Electrics, we provide expert electrolysis treatments tailored to your needs, ensuring long-lasting results in a professional and welcoming environment. Our lead practitioner Lauren and our premises are both fully licenced for electrolysis by Bristol City Council.
How Does Electrolysis Hair Removal Work?
Electrolysis targets individual hair follicles using a fine probe that delivers a small electrical current. This destroys the follicle’s ability to produce hair, leading to permanent hair removal. Unlike other methods, electrolysis is effective on all hair types and colours, including white, grey, and red hairs that laser hair removal cannot treat.
What Areas Can Be Treated?
Electrolysis is suitable for almost any area of the body, including:
Face (chin, upper lip, cheeks, eyebrows)
Body (underarms, bikini line, abdomen, back, chest)
Fingers and toes
Whether you want to remove a few stray hairs or treat a larger area, electrolysis provides a customised and permanent solution.
What to Expect During Your Electrolysis Consultation:
Consultation: We assess your hair type, skin condition, and treatment goals and design a treatment plan around your needs and schedule.
Patch Test: If you are deemed suitable for electrolysis we will carry out a small patch test on a few hairs. A fine probe is inserted into the follicle, delivering a quick electrical current.
Sensation: Most clients describe the feeling as a mild warmth or tingling.
Aftercare: A cooling gel will be applied to the area and you will be given aftercare instructions to follow.
Session Duration: Ranges from 15 minutes to over an hour, depending on the treatment area.
What to Expect After Treatment
Temporary redness and swelling may occur but usually subsides within a few hours.
Mild skin sensitivity can last a day or two.
Multiple sessions are required to target hair at different growth stages for permanent results.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can electrolysis remove hair permanently? Yes, electrolysis is the only method that offers permanent hair removal, unlike laser or IPL, which will reduce but not fully eliminate hair.
Does electrolysis work on white or grey hair? Yes! Electrolysis is effective on all hair colours and skin types, making it ideal for those with white, grey, blonde, or red hairs that laser treatments cannot target.
Is electrolysis painful? Most clients describe the sensation as mild heat or tingling. Treatment times can be reduced to increase comfort.
How many sessions are needed? The number of sessions varies based on the treatment area, hair thickness, and individual hair growth cycles. Most people need multiple treatments to achieve full clearance.
Can electrolysis cause more hair growth? No, electrolysis does not cause additional hair growth. If you notice new hairs, they are likely due to hormonal changes or hair cycles, not the treatment itself.
How much does electrolysis hair removal cost? Prices per treatment depends on the session duration and the amount of sessions needed will vary from person to person. Contact us for a consultation to determine the best plan for you.
