WELCOME TO BROOKS ELECTROLYSIS
Certified Professional Electrologist (CPE)
We are proud to offer a safe, professional, & permanent hair-removal electrolysis solution to women, men, teens, & gender-diverse individuals in a confidential, comfortable, and relaxing environment.
Electrolysis is a permanent hair-removal procedure, which involves inserting a very fine disposable filament or needle into the natural opening of the hair follicle and then applying a small amount of electric current to destroy the hair root. Repeated electrolysis sessions will end any further hair growth in that follicle.
It is still the only medically proven method of permanent hair removal. Other methods of hair removal can only claim a reduction in hair, whereas electrolysis is the best medically proven method for permanent removal of hair. And electrolysis works on all colours of hair, skin colours, and body areas.

ADVANTAGES
Of Electrolysis Hair Removal
Electrolysis uses a small amount of electrical current to destroy the root of the hair which is why electrolysis treats all types of hair colour and skin tones. Laser targets the hair by using mild radiation that is attracted to dark coloured hair (melanin) with the help of high-heat lasers, which is why your skin needs to be light and your hair dark. Laser is not as effective on white, blond or grey hair. For this reason, Electrolysis can claim permanent, while laser can only claim hair reduction by the FDA. To this day electrolysis is still the only medically proven method of permanent hair removal.

We Work With The Whole Body
ELECTROLYSIS FOR FACE: Unwanted facial hair is a nightmare, whether you have 10 chin hairs, a moustache or thousands of hairs all over your face. Added to this unwanted hair is irritated skin from tweezing, waxing or shaving. At Brooks Electrolysis, we know this first-hand and we want you to be able to enjoy a fulfilling life, without loss of self-confidence because of this unsightly hair. Electrolysis can be done on absolutely all areas of the face, with the exception of hair inside the nose. As a permanent hair removal solution that is ideally suited to treating sensitive areas such as the face, electrolysis is most definitely recommended!
ELECTROLYSIS FOR EYEBROWS: Eyebrows are the defining feature that frames our face, making them one of the most important facial features. Their purpose is to prevent dirt and sweat from getting into our eyes. Because electrolysis is such a precise method, it is a perfect solution for Detailed Eyebrow Shaping. Imagine, having perfect unique-to-you eyebrows that are shaped to accentuate your beautiful face permanently! With 35 years of experience in eyebrow shaping, your Certified Electrologist at Brooks Electrolysis will work closely with you to give you your best natural eyebrow shape, which will naturally enhance your beautiful eyes and your overall facial features.
ELECTROLYSIS FOR BIKINI LINE: If you are longing to be free once and for all from the tedious effort it takes to remove bikini line pubic hair and the insecurity of it springing free from your bathing suit – not to mention the subsequent inconvenience of painful inflammation and redness that can ensue with at-home temporary methods of hair removal – then you’ll be happy to know that Electrolysis is especially well suited for this area! As with all temporary methods of hair removal, the bikini line is especially prone to skin irritation and ingrown or trapped hair. This irritation can also be caused by pressure from panty line elastics and tight clothing such as jeans. Laser hair removal does not treat trapped or ingrown hair which makes Electrolysis the only lifetime solution to these problems! Book your online assessment and consultation today at Brooks Electrolysis!
ELECTROLYSIS FOR LEGS: Many of us spend way too much of our hard-earned dollars on temporary methods only to contend with coarser hair, dark stubble and distorted ingrown hairs, sometimes as soon as the next day! Electrolysis is an excellent choice for getting rid of leg hair permanently! Any area can be treated including knee caps and knee-pits. However, it does involve commitment: out of 3 stages of growth, permanent results will only occur in the growing stage of the hair follicle, which is why it requires multiple sessions over a period of time, depending on the amount of hair you have. The advantage is that once a hair follicle is permanently destroyed, you are forever free from the hair regrowing! If you are dreaming of those forever smooth legs, then electrolysis is definitely for you, regardless of the colour of your skin and hair!
