Lower leg electrolysis

Yes. The specialist inserts a fine single-use probe into each follicle individually, and a pulse of current destroys the papilla that feeds the hair. After each treatment the hair grows weaker until it stops growing completely, so once the course is finished you need no maintenance treatments. Electrolysis is the only method that removes hair permanently.

Book online: choose the type of visit, the day and the time in the calendar, then enter your contact details. If this is your first visit, start with a consultation with a trial treatment (30 minutes, 150 zł). When you book for the first time, you will also fill in a short questionnaire. You will receive a confirmation by text message and e-mail, and the e-mail also contains advice on how to prepare for the treatment. Prefer to talk? Call us on +48 515 222 832.

You pay for treatment time: 15 minutes is 120 zł, one hour is 260 zł, and longer visits work out cheaper per minute. Clearing all the hair from this area for the first time takes from 5 hours in total. After that, visits get shorter and therefore cheaper. You will learn the exact plan and the cost of the course at your consultation (150 zł).

Everyone feels it differently. You don't feel the probe going in, because it enters the natural opening of the hair follicle. Then there is a gentle warmth or slight tingling, and you no longer feel the hair being lifted out with tweezers. We work with the Apilus xCell Pro and adjust the settings to your skin. The consultation includes a 15-minute trial treatment, so you can feel it for yourself before starting a course. If you are sensitive to pain, you can apply an anaesthetic cream at home about an hour before your visit or ask us for free anaesthesia at the salon.

The first removal of all hair from this area takes at least 5 hours in total. We spread it over several weekly visits, usually 1.5 to 2 hours each. After that, visits become shorter and less frequent, as there is less and less hair. We will agree the exact plan at the consultation.

At first once a week, until we have removed all the hair for the first time. Then every 2 to 3 weeks, and towards the end every 4 to 6 weeks, as only single, weak hairs remain. The whole course usually takes 1.5 to 2 years. The exact number of visits depends on hair density, genetics and hormonal balance. If new hairs appear due to hormonal changes, we remove them in exactly the same way.

The hairs need to be clearly visible and at least 3 to 4 mm long: usually 5 to 7 days after shaving or 3 weeks after waxing or sugaring. For a few days before the treatment, moisturise your skin well: hydrated skin needs less current, so the treatment is felt less. On the day of your visit, do not apply any products to the area. For 2 weeks before the treatment, avoid the sun, sunbeds and skincare with acids (AHA, BHA) and retinol, and for 24 hours before it, skip alcohol, coffee and cigarettes. Between treatments, shaving is the only hair removal you can use.

For the first 24 hours, keep the treated skin dry and do not touch it with unwashed hands. For 3 days, cleanse it once or twice a day with an antiseptic solution and apply a panthenol cream or foam. For 10 days, avoid saunas, swimming pools, the gym, hot baths, the sun and sunbeds. Do not use scrubs, ointments, oils or products containing alcohol.

Right after the treatment the skin may be red and slightly swollen. This is a normal reaction that settles within 3 to 5 hours, and the skin usually heals within 5 to 7 days. Sometimes tiny round scabs the size of the follicle opening appear: don't pick them, they will disappear on their own without a trace within 2 to 4 weeks.

Yes. We use only sterile, single-use probes and disinfect the skin before and after the treatment. When you first book, you fill in a questionnaire that helps rule out contraindications, and at the consultation we check how your skin reacts to the current. Electrolysis works on every skin and hair type.

Yes. The current destroys the hair follicle regardless of pigment, so hair colour doesn't matter. We remove blonde, red, grey, fine and curly hair, as well as vellus hair that laser cannot deal with.

Laser targets dark pigment, so it struggles with blonde, red, grey and fine hair. Electrolysis destroys each follicle individually, regardless of hair colour and thickness, and the result is permanent. If laser left you with stray hairs or fine vellus hair, electrolysis will remove them.
