    As a girl who is 23 y.o please read carefully. I've been through the same process and I totally got rid of all my facial hair. I am a hairy girl and my hormones are supporting it and at 7 I started waxing bikini area, armpits and I was really sensitive about even 1 hair folicule. At 14 I started to have laser hair removal to my face and my face become like man beard and it followed by inflamed hair root causing acne and my face was in terrible situation with soooo many hair and acne. What laser does to facial hair is since the roots are not so thick, it literally triggers the hair and wakes up the sleeping roots and causes the hairs you won't even see becomes darker and thicker and results with beard-like hairs. At 18 I found a woman in İstanbul who does the great job in electrolysis and went her. It took 22 hours in 2 days. I was numbed and literally slept while she was doing the job. I got rid of each hair and result was perfect. A year later maybe quarter of the hair came back with same strong and I went to her again. And now its been 4 years I am totally clean and I see the ONLY AND ONLY WAY TO GET RID OF THE HAIR IS ELECTROLYSIS. PLEASE DON'T EVEN TRY SOMETHING ELSE. AND BE SURE THAT YOUR ESTHETICIAN DON'T PULL THE HAIR WITH TWEEZER AFTER GAVE THE ELECTRIC SHOCK WITH NEEDLE. MAKE SURE HAIR IS COMING TO TWEEZER WITHOUT FORCING/PULLING WITH TWEEZER. And don't worry everything has a solution as long as we are healthy. Nevermind the rest of it. Everything will be ok ❤

    Thank you for updating! I just started my journey this month. I've followed you since the start almost and you have strongly influenced my decision to not do laser (and to kindly decline when my beautician offered laser when I asked for electrolysis), to start shaving instead of plucking my chin hairs AND to finally save up money to start my electrolysis journey. So once again, deepest of thanks to you. And to anyone else reading this comment, if you have any questions about first time electrolysis or anything regarding electrolysis I'm happy to answer any questions I can.

I have a problem in my nose hair, my hormones like men but I cut the hair on my nose, and now it's getting thicker, it makes me very anxious to cut it, how to make the hair smooth and disappear?

    Thank you so much ! I'm French and I had laser hair removal done by an esthetic dermatologist for dark coarse hair on my chin area (I've seen my gynecologist and had a blood test and ovaries and hormonal came out normal . I may have stimulated the area by plucking one, then two, then 10 since years... Also, I am overweight so I heard it can have a role. I have a copper IUD and my period are quite regular. The dermatologist said I won't have paradoxical hair growth elsewhere. She only treats chin and upper lip area with but NOT the cheeks because acccording to her, this is where paradoxical hair growths can occur. So I trusted her and I had maybe 10 sessions (nearly 100 euros each session). It was life changing since the 1rst session. My last session was on october this year and I started at the summer of 2020.
    But I noticed some darker and thicker hair on my cheeks . She said she'll treat them by electrolysis. I'm not sure if its because I'm not that insecure anymore about my chin so I focus more elsewhere or if I have a beginning of a paradoxical hair growth... I only saw dark peach fuzz on my cheeks but I started electrolysis with her for 50 euros 10 minutes and I have to drive for an hour to go to the clinic.... It works but this is so expensive. I hope I wont have a lot more hair to treat. My beauty therapist who works in my home town had a few days to get trained for electrolysis and I had 2 sessions with her to compare with my aesthetic dermatologist. My skin is barely reacting and I dont feel that much electricity. So as it's significantly less "painful" and causes almost no reaction, my brains tells me it won't work. And sometimes she can't remove the hair because it's to small, but my dermatologist will success. So I dont know what to do really 😂. I can have an appointment with my beauty therapist much quicker than my dermatologist who is 1 hour drive away, but she also can't manage to get hair too short for her but very visible for me... I work in a primary school so childreb notice everything 😂.
    We women spend so much money to get rid of these hair... I would love to spend it for a trip or something instead of treating hair I shouldn't have. 😅
    I'm so sorry for this long comment which is useless for people but I needed to talk . Thank you again for sharing your hair removal journey ! And I hope my english is understandable.
    Merci!😊

    I'm waiting to see an endocrine. I just had my first laser session done on Wed but I was looking to find a place that can remove everything so next Wed I'm meeting with a Dr for electrolysis and I'm excited to finally fix my confidence and self esteem and get out of depression over this. I always thought that something was wrong with me but I see now that so many women are going through what I'm going through and I appreciate you posting your videos I'm learning more and more about this and I'm hoping to find out soon why I'm having this problem. I have been wanting to get this fixed for a long time but due to my daughter being diagnosed with a brain tumor she was my focus, but for now I can focus on getting myself taken care of and I can't wait to be past this and find out why I'm going through this. I did have an ovary removed due to a large tumor on there and then the hairs started to grow and grow more overtime. Depression has started and severe anxiety and the wants of removing myself from this world due to this but I have to be here for my daughter and I now know there's treatment and that there are so many women with the same situation as me.

    I was getting electrolysis every 2 weeks for FOUR YEARS and I only had partial results. (Like a 50% reduction). I finally changed my electrologist and now not even FOUR MONTHS LATER, the work is almost done. Instead of going every two weeks, she put me down to every 3 weeks, and now I’m going to have to go down to every four weeks because there’s hardly ANY HAIR NOW!
    If you are having a hard time getting results, switch your electrologist.
    Also, the previous person was using blend and this new person I use is using thermolysis only.

    I started electrolysis last autumn..5 months ago, on my chin and sideburn/jawline. I dont have pcos., but i probably am heading towards menopause being in my late 40s.
    I have had laser treatment on the areas in the past but felt the hairs got a lot worse!! Yikes!! So decided, after researching, including watching your videos, to go for electrolysis. So far so good...I've had 5 sessions..of an hour. I actuslly cope well with the level of discomfort . Definitely depends how you feel on the day...i was really tired on one of the appointments and struggled in last half hour. I've had a few bruises but nothing concerning and it's the best boost to my confidence when this wiry black hairs are gone , aswell as other fairer long ones!
    My question would be...how often is expected to have to go...I find I get 2 weeks and then hairs appear..I stay a bit if a distance away, so can only go every 4-5weejs, by which time I'm having to shave or trim...as we have done away with masks...damn it!! Thry were great for hiding a hairy face😅. So I really ideally would ho every 3 weeks...is that "normal" fir the face.
    I did do laser on my legs and bikini, years ago, and it's been amazjng for that.
    Thanks for your videos .

    • @itsmelisates
      @itsmelisates  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      When my hormones fluctuate I personally grow around 5-10 hairs on the chin a few times a year. Only for this reason I do not class it as permanent. But someone who doesn’t have hormone issues, it will be permanent whereas laser is not. IPL laser for me stimulated more hair all down my neck and in areas i didn’t have hair. For this reason, laser for the chin area is not the right option and electrolysis was my only option. 5-10 hairs a few times a year is nothing and takes less than 5mins it was life changing for me. Everyone’s body is different but this was my experience. I hope that explains it all.

    Hi your results are so amazing. It makes me feel hopeful. This year I’ve accidentally stimulated some of my chin hairs which has devastated me. I foolishly used an epilator on my face more than once. The hairs have grown back thicker. I can’t get them treated yet due to being on accutane. Only two more months to go but I think I need to wait at least 6 months after accutane for treatment. I just wondered if you knew how long electrolysis would take to permanently remove hairs on a small area of the chin please? I hope to hear from you, I’m really worried.

    • @itsmelisates
      @itsmelisates  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi! Yes that’s right you need to be wait 6 months after you finish the course of accutane. Results really varies from person to person but on average it can take 2 years. For a small area with not a lot of hair, it can take less than that. Hope this helps!

    You said you got pigmentation when u accidentally scratched the scabs off. Then later you said that that area is not producing enough melanin, that's the reason for white spots(pigmentation).
    My question is How scratching the scabs off is relevant to skin actually not producing melanin. You scratched scabs few years back. Now the skin should actually start producing melanin. I think while treatment there is some severe damage cause to the skin(epidermis), that's why it is not producing melanin. What u say?

      I would love your advice on this topic as it’s not very clear here in the UK. My training wasn’t clear on whether it should happen or not but the British Institute and Association of Electrolysis (BIAE) state that pin prick scabs are normal. I have been to 12 different people for electrolysis and there were only 2 electrolygists that didn’t cause scabbing. It’s like it’s very common especially with the Diathermy method. Any tips or advice?

      @@itsmelisates My advice would be to book your appointments with the electrologist who doesn’t cause scabbing, and stick with that person. Not all electtologists are created equal😀.
      Just note that you should never feel the hair being removed after it is treated . It should slide out easily, otherwise it would be the same as tweezing, but there shouldn’t be anything more than some redness , maybe slight swelling, immediately afterward.
      I recommend using ice wrapped in a cloth , and application of zinc oxide for after treatment care. Also no makeup or heavy moisturizer for 24-48 hours.

I've had electrolysis done by a woman that charged too much and the hairs grew back. My primary care Dr thinks I don't need a referral because I'm getting electrolysis done but I'm hoping this next appointment she will refer me to see a specialist. She claims it's normal in which I know it's not. After having an ovary removed after having my daughter I started getting hairs a year after she was born so I know there's a problem. This has completely changed my life for the worst honestly. It's so depressing to go through this and my confidence is drained. I'm embaressed to go in public even though I hide it so well and others never notice but it's always in my head on what I have going on. I've had suicidal thoughts before because it's AL to handle but I always remind myself that there is treatment and I'm fortunate to have the finances to get treatment. I really don't think this should even be considered cosmetic because it's due to health issues and I feel if women spoke more about this situation it can possibly be pushed to the point that insurance can cover this for women out there that can't afford this treatment. I did find a new electrologist that is cheaper and closer to my location so I'm hoping I can make it through this time so I can feel free because I feel imprisoned in my own body due to this issue. I pray for other women out there struggling with this issue but I will say it shouldn't be anything to be embaressed about. We have no control over our body's and if there's help then take it🙏🥰

      Hi, 3 hours in one session for the upper lip is too much. I don't recommend doing any longer than 15mins with the Short-Wave Diathermy method. The upper lip is a very sensitive area. I recommend you wait for the skin to heal for a couple months.There is a possibility of scarring and pigmentation but it's hard to tell if this will be permanent or not. My clients have found that Azeliac Acid works well with reducing pigmentation. You can incorporate this within your skincare routine. I hope your skin gets better and hope you find a better electrologist to do your treatment in the future. If you have any more questions let me know.
