Electrolysis

10-60 Minutes

$38-$125

At Mina MedSpa & Wellness, our caring and experienced team of Master Estheticians is here to satisfy all your hair removal needs. Electrolysis, a trusted hair removal method since 1875, is the only FDA-approved treatment for permanent hair removal. It is also highly effective for removing ingrown hairs.

Electrolysis works by using an electric current to destroy hair follicles, preventing them from growing back. Using the latest technology, our highly trained Estheticians apply a safe, modest electrical current to each individual hair follicle. This precise approach ensures electrolysis targets each hair at its core, making it the most effective and thorough hair removal treatment available.

Electrolysis can be used on most areas of the body, including the face, underarms, bikini line, and legs. It is suitable for all skin types and hair colors, making it an excellent option for individuals with darker skin or lighter hair that doesn’t respond well to laser hair removal. Our treatments are tailored to meet the needs of a wide range of clients, including men, women, athletes, teens, and individuals with PCOS, Hirsutism, or transgender-specific needs.

Key Benefits of Electrolysis:

  • Permanent hair removal when the treatment series is completed.
  • Works effectively on all skin types and hair colors.
  • Versatile enough to treat most areas of the body.
  • A solution for clients seeking an alternative to laser hair removal or ongoing grooming.

Considerations and Limitations:

While electrolysis offers permanent results, there are important factors to consider:

  • Discomfort: Most people experience some degree of pain during electrolysis. A fine needle or probe is inserted into each hair follicle to destroy it. The sensation varies by individual and may feel like a mild heat or a plucking sensation. To enhance comfort, we apply a local anesthetic before treatment.
  • Time Commitment: Electrolysis requires multiple sessions for permanent results, even in smaller areas. This time-intensive process demands patience and a commitment to achieving long-term freedom from repeated grooming.
  • Health Considerations: Electrolysis may not be suitable for individuals with certain conditions, including pregnancy, hemophilia, keloid scarring, pacemakers, active rosacea, or skin diseases in the treatment area. These factors will be discussed during your consultation.
  • Cost: While electrolysis is cost-effective compared to a lifetime of temporary hair removal methods, the duration of treatment may impact affordability. At Mina MedSpa & Wellness, we offer package options as a cost-efficient choice for dedicated clients. Please note that packages are non-refundable, and additional treatments beyond the package are billed at the per-session rate unless another package is purchased.

Preparation for Electrolysis:

To ensure the best results, follow these guidelines before your session:

  • Avoid sun exposure on the treatment area; electrolysis cannot be performed on sunburned skin.
  • Discontinue the use of retinol one week before your session.
  • Wait two weeks after receiving Botox or dermal fillers to begin treatment.
  • Refrain from taking Ibuprofen or other blood-thinning medications before your appointment.
  • Do not shave for the initial consultation so the Esthetician can evaluate your needs accurately.
  • Avoid shaving or trimming 4–5 days before your appointment to ensure the hair is at least 3mm in length for effective treatment.
  • Exfoliate the treatment area the night before.
  • Shower or bathe before your appointment to open pores. If this isn’t possible, apply a warm, wet washcloth to the area.
  • Stay hydrated before your session, as well-hydrated skin responds better to electrolysis.
  • Avoid caffeine prior to treatment, as it can increase skin sensitivity.
  • Wear loose-fitting clothing over the treatment area to prevent irritation after your session.

Post-Treatment Care:

After electrolysis, you may experience minor redness, swelling, or scabbing. These effects usually subside within a few days. To promote healing and avoid complications, follow these aftercare steps:

  • Continue drinking plenty of water to stay hydrated.
  • Apply ice to reduce redness or swelling if needed.
  • Use aloe vera or antibiotic ointments as recommended by your Esthetician.
  • Gently clean the area with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive skin cleansers for 48 hours.
  • Refrain from touching or scratching the treated area to prevent infection or scarring.
  • Avoid sun exposure for at least 48 hours to protect the skin.
  • Post-treatment scabs should not be picked; they will fall off naturally without leaving marks if left undisturbed.

Important Note:

  • Cancellations or rescheduled appointments with less than 24 hours’ notice may incur a fee.

Electrolysis offers a permanent solution to unwanted hair, giving you freedom from the ongoing hassle of shaving, waxing, or plucking. Schedule a consultation today to start your journey to smooth, hair-free skin with Mina MedSpa & Wellness.

Laser Hair Removal

Varies by Area

Pricing Varies

At Mina MedSpa & Wellness, our caring and experienced team of Master Estheticians is here to provide expert hair removal services tailored to your needs. Laser hair removal has been commercially available since the 1990s and remains one of the most effective methods for long-term hair reduction. This procedure uses a concentrated beam of light to target the pigment in hair follicles, damaging them to inhibit or delay future growth. While laser hair removal significantly slows hair regrowth, it typically does not result in permanent removal.

Our state-of-the-art technology allows us to safely treat various areas of the body, including the face, underarms, bikini line, and legs. The effectiveness of laser hair removal depends on hair color and skin type, as contrast between the two plays a key role. While lighter hair colors such as gray, red, blonde, and white may not respond well, advancements in laser technology have made the procedure accessible for darker skin tones. However, laser treatment is not suitable for tattooed skin.

Our treatments are tailored to meet the needs of a wide range of clients, including men, women, athletes, teens, and individuals with PCOS, Hirsutism, or transgender-specific needs.

Areas and Suitability:

Laser hair removal can be used on most body areas, including the face, underarms, bikini line, and legs. However, its effectiveness depends on the contrast between hair and skin color. It works best on dark hair with light skin tones, though advancements in technology have expanded its suitability for darker skin. Unfortunately, laser hair removal is not effective for gray, red, blonde, or white hair, and it cannot be performed on tattooed skin.

Our services are designed for a variety of clients, including men, women, athletes, teens, individuals with PCOS or Hirsutism, and transgender individuals.

Considerations and Limitations:

Laser hair removal has certain drawbacks and limitations to be aware of:

  • Discomfort: Most clients report a snapping or stinging sensation during treatment, similar to a rubber band snapping against the skin. The level of discomfort varies by skin sensitivity, treatment area, and hair type. We provide cooling methods, such as aloe vera and ice pads, to manage discomfort.
  • Time and Cost: Laser hair removal requires multiple sessions to achieve significant results, with an average 70-80% reduction in hair after six treatments. While the long-term cost is lower than a lifetime of shaving or waxing, the initial investment can be a concern.
  • Pregnancy: Many healthcare providers recommend avoiding laser hair removal during pregnancy.
  • Treatment Variability: Coarser hair, such as in the Brazilian area, may require 6–12 treatments. Back, chest, and facial areas often need 7–9 treatments or more. For beard removal, laser treatment typically needs to be complemented with electrolysis for complete results.

Preparation for Laser Hair Removal:

To ensure the best results, follow these preparation guidelines:

  • Avoid sun exposure for at least one month before treatment; tanned or sunburned skin cannot be treated.
  • Discontinue retinol use one week prior and wait two weeks after Botox, dermal fillers, or antibiotics.
  • Do not wax, pluck, or use depilatory creams for six weeks before treatment to preserve hair follicles.
  • For your initial consultation, avoid shaving so the Esthetician can assess your hair growth.
  • For treatment appointments, shave the area the same day unless otherwise directed. Failure to shave may result in an additional fee.
  • Cleanse and exfoliate the treatment area the night before. Avoid lotions, creams, or makeup on the treatment day.
  • Stay hydrated and avoid caffeine prior to your session.
  • Wear loose-fitting, soft clothing over the treated area to minimize irritation.

Preparation for Laser Hair Removal:

Mild redness and irritation are common immediately after treatment and typically subside quickly. To maximize results and ensure comfort, follow these aftercare instructions:

  • Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated.
  • Apply aloe vera or use ice packs to soothe any irritation.
  • Avoid sun exposure; it can compromise results and cause skin damage, including hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation.
  • Do not shave the treated area for at least 72 hours.
  • Avoid exfoliation, hot showers, saunas, steam rooms, or swimming for 7–10 days to prevent irritation.

Preparation for Laser Hair Removal:

At Mina MedSpa & Wellness, we offer cost-effective packages for clients committed to the process. Please note:

  • Packages are non-refundable.
  • If additional treatments are needed beyond the purchased package, per-session rates apply unless another package is purchased.
  • Cancellations or rescheduled appointments with less than 24 hours’ notice may incur a fee.
