What is electrolysis with needles?
Electrolysis, also known as electrolysis Electrolysis, or needle emission, is a technique that permanently destroys the dermal papilla of the hair follicle by applying an electric current. It is the only hair removal method recognized by the FDA As a permanent solution, unlike laser or IPL, it works on any skin color and on any color, thickness or type of hair, including white, blonde or gray hair.
Three hair removal systems in one device
Depilplus 3 integrates the three most widely used electric hair removal technologies in the professional field, allowing the specialist to choose the most suitable one according to the type of hair, the area and the sensitivity of the client.
Electrolysis (galvanic current)
Electrolysis applies a low-intensity direct current that triggers a chemical reaction in the hair follicle. It is the oldest technique and offers the best results on fine hair and delicate areas. Due to its precision, it remains the preferred choice for eyebrows, upper lip, and areas with gray hair.
Thermolysis (high frequency)
Thermolysis uses a high-frequency alternating current that generates heat at the needle tip, destroying the follicle through coagulation. It is the fastest technique—ideal for body treatments or thick hair—and allows for high productivity per session.
Blend (combined system)
The system blend It combines electrolysis and thermolysis simultaneously, adding the chemical efficacy of galvanic current with the speed of heat. It is the most versatile option: it allows for the treatment of stubborn, deep-set, or curved hair in fewer sessions than pure electrolysis, while maintaining very complete follicular destruction.
Advantages over laser and IPL
Laser and intense pulsed light (IPL) treatments work by contrasting melanin, so they are less effective on light hair or dark skin. Electrolysis with Depilplus 3 offers three key advantages for professional beauty salons:
- Universality: It treats any phototype and any hair color, including white, blonde, red or gray hair.
- Final result: It destroys the follicular papilla, while laser and IPL inhibit growth without guaranteeing permanent removal.
- Applications that the laser cannot treat: localized hirsutism, eyebrows, hair in moles and peri-areolar areas.
In practice, many centers use Depilplus 3 as a complement to laser treatment to finish treating the hair that the laser leaves unremoved.
Applications: facial and body hair removal
Depilplus 3 is designed for both precision facial treatments and larger body areas:
- Facial: upper lip, chin, eyebrows, sideburns, areas with hirsutism.
- Bodily: armpits, groin, legs, arms, back, abdomen.
- Specific cases: Post-laser touch-up, white or gray hair, dark skin (phototypes V and VI), patients with hormonal imbalances.
Equipment handling
Electrolysis requires precise technique: needle depth, application time, and current intensity determine both the results and the client's comfort. Upon delivery of the device, we demonstrate how to configure and use the Depilplus 3 programs, enabling professionals to take full advantage of all three modes from day one. The needle insertion technique and skin treatment must be acquired through formal professional training, as we are not authorized to provide it.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a professional electric hair removal machine cost?
The price of Depilplus 3 varies depending on the country where the device is purchased. Contact us indicating your location and we will send you the updated price and purchase conditions available in your market.
What is the difference between electrolysis and thermolysis?
Electrolysis uses direct current to destroy the hair follicle through a chemical reaction; it is slower but very precise, ideal for fine hair and small areas. Thermolysis uses high-frequency current that destroys the follicle with heat; it is faster and more efficient for large areas or thick hair. The Blend system combines both to get the best of each.
Is electrolysis painful?
The sensation is comparable to a small prick or brief warmth in each follicle. Depilplus 3 allows you to precisely adjust the intensity and duration of the pulse for a comfortable treatment. Topical anesthetic can be used on sensitive areas.
How many sessions are needed to see results?
Results are visible from the first session: this is the great advantage of electrolysis over other techniques. If the treatment is performed correctly, each treated follicle is permanently eliminated in a single procedure.
What types of hair can it treat?
Anyone. Electrolysis is the only effective technique on white, blonde, red, or gray hair, as well as on dark skin where laser loses effectiveness or is risky.
Do I need specific training to use Depilplus 3?
Yes. Electrolysis is a professional technique that requires knowledge of hair follicle anatomy and precise needle handling. This training must be acquired through specialized centers and professionals; we, as manufacturers, will only demonstrate the operation of the equipment and its programs.
