Electrolysis Hair Removal in North Vancouver
Permanent Hair Removal for All Hair Types and Skin Tones
Electrolysis Hair Removal at Parsa Wellness Clinic North Vancouver is a precise treatment that permanently destroys individual hair follicles using a controlled electrical current. A fine sterile probe is inserted into the natural opening of the follicle, delivering targeted energy that stops future hair growth.
​
Unlike laser hair removal, electrolysis works on all hair colours and skin tones, including blonde, grey, red, and fine hairs that lasers cannot effectively treat. It is ideal for smaller areas requiring precision such as the upper lip, chin, jawline, eyebrows, neck, and isolated facial or body hairs.
​
Because hair grows in cycles, multiple sessions may be recommended to treat each follicle during its active growth phase.

How Electrolysis Hair Removal Works
Understanding the science behind permanent hair removal
Follicle Targeting
A trained practitioner inserts a very fine sterile probe into the natural opening of the hair follicle. This allows the treatment to precisely target the root of the hair without damaging surrounding skin.
Electrical Energy Delivery
A controlled electrical current is delivered through the probe, destroying the follicle’s growth cells. Once the follicle is treated, it can no longer produce new hair.
Permanent Hair Reduction
The treated hair is gently removed with tweezers. Over multiple sessions, follicles in their active growth phase are permanently disabled, leading to progressively smoother, hair free skin.
6 Areas Electrolysis Hair Removal Can Treat
Common areas where permanent hair removal is most effective
Upper Lip Hair
Precise removal of fine or coarse hairs on the upper lip that may not respond well to laser treatments.
Jawline Hair
Targets isolated or coarse hairs along the jawline for smoother facial contours.
Eyebrow Shaping

Chin Hair
Permanent treatment for stubborn chin hairs often linked to hormonal hair growth.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Iron Infusion Therapy
01
Is electrolysis hair removal permanent?
Yes. Electrolysis is the only FDA-recognized method of permanent hair removal. The treatment destroys the hair follicle’s growth cells using a controlled electrical current. Once a follicle is successfully treated, it can no longer produce hair. Multiple sessions are required to treat hairs during their active growth phase.
02
How many electrolysis sessions are needed?
Hair grows in cycles, so multiple sessions are needed to treat each follicle when it is actively growing. The number of treatments depends on the area, hair density, and individual hair growth patterns. Many clients schedule sessions every 1–2 weeks initially.
03
Does electrolysis work on blonde or grey hair?
Yes. Electrolysis works on all hair colors and skin types, including blonde, grey, red, and very fine hair. This makes it an excellent option for hairs that laser hair removal cannot effectively target.
04
Is electrolysis painful?
Most clients describe electrolysis as a mild stinging or heat sensation during treatment. Discomfort varies depending on the treatment area and individual sensitivity. Sessions are typically short, and practitioners adjust the settings to keep treatments as comfortable as possible.
05
What areas can electrolysis treat?
Electrolysis is ideal for small or precise areas such as the upper lip, chin, jawline, neck, eyebrows, and isolated facial hairs. It can also be used on body areas including the areola, abdomen, fingers, and toes where individual hairs need permanent removal.
