Many of us suffer with minor skin blemishes that can affect our confidence. These issues are much more common than many people would think, due to a combination of factors including ageing, UV Damage and certain health conditions.
Advanced Electrolysis has been used for more than 100 years to treat problems such as broken capillaries, spider naevi and warts. It has progressed dramatically with the ongoing development of modern technology and is a simple and safe technique. Electrolysis is used to successfully remove, visibly reduce and improve the appearance of unwanted skin blemishes, offering immediate and effective results.
Here at Bellissima we have offered Advanced Electrolysis for over twenty years and it is still one of the most in demand treatments.
How does it work?
Advanced Electrolysis is a treatment that uses a Thermolysis current and a very fine needle to either cauterise or lift away the superficial epidermis, depending on the type of blemish that is being treated.
What concerns can be treated and what kind of results can be expected?
Red Veins and Spider Naevi
Fading begins approximately three weeks after treatment, with the broken capillaries beginning to disappear. Typically up to three treatments may be required, although there may be a noticeable difference after just one treatment.
Skin Tags
These small blemishes are cauterised and can often be removed instantly, with small red marks or scabbing appearing after treatment. These will disappear after 7-10 days.
Milia
The current cauterises the blemish and the milia is reabsorbed back into the skin. Results can start to show up to a month after treatment.
Warts/Verrucas
Often a few treatments are needed, taken six to eight weeks apart, to remove warts and verrucas.
Seborrheic Keratosis
The current is used to lift away and cauterise the Seborrheic Keratosis. A scab will appear for up to two weeks. Once these have healed, you will see that the blemish has been fully removed.
Sebaceous Cyst
These cysts can be quite persistent, depending on their size and the area to be treated. Several treatments maybe needed to reduce or remove the cyst.
Syringoma
The current applied will shrink the blemish. Small crusts and swellings will then appear, taking up to two weeks to heal. Several treatments may be needed, depending on the area to be treated.
Xanthelasma
The current shrinks the blemish, small crusts and swellings will appear which will take up to 2 weeks to heal. Several treatments may be needed depending on the area to be treated.
Mole Reduction
The mole is reduced and flatten and will continue to reduce as the scab forms and disappears. More than one treatment may be necessary.
What does the treatment feel like?
Electrolysis clients generally describe the treatment as mildly uncomfortable, with a warm stinging. In the area that has been treated, it is often visible you have had treatment immediately after and it may look red, blotchy and minor swelling in the area. This will improve over the coming weeks.
