Electrolysis Hair Removal Supplies & Equipment, Salon Savers

Electrolysis is a method of removing individual hairs from the face or body. Todays medical electrolysis devices destroy the growth centre of the hair with chemical or heat energy. After a very fine probe is inserted into the hair follicle, the hair is removed with tweezers. Because electrolysis permanently destroys the growth cells in the hair follicles, the hair will not grow back.

Sterex electrolysis needles are manufactured at the Sterex headquarters in Birmingham, England by highly-skilled engineers and clean room technicians who are subject to the strict and comprehensive quality checks required for medical devise. Sterex needles are excellent quality and the preferred choice for electrolysis professional worldwide. The choice of needle directly affects the efficacy and success of the treatment as well as client comfort levels. We recommend exploring the different types of Sterex Needles to enable you to offer your clients more choice.
