Electrolysis

Electrolysis is a hair removal method that uses electric current to permanently destroy hair follicles, preventing future hair growth.

A very fine probe is inserted into each individual hair follicle (without piercing the skin), and a small electric current is delivered to destroy the hair root. The hair is then removed with tweezers.
Electrolysis is suitable for all hair types that may not be 100% treatable with laser hair removal, such as blonde, grey, white, red, and very fine hair.

Because hair grows in cycles, multiple sessions are required to ensure complete hair removal.

  • Regular Electrolysis

    15 Minutes - $59

    20 Minutes - $75

    30 Minutes - $95

    45 Minutes - $125

Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal uses concentrated beams of light (lasers) to remove or reduce unwanted hair.

The laser targets pigment (melanin) in the hair. The light is absorbed by the pigment, which converts to heat and damages the hair follicle, inhibiting or delaying future hair growth.

At Azure Dream Spa, we have been helping clients of all skin tones and types get rid of unwanted hair for over 15 years.

We recommend starting with a package of 5 sessions, which allows us to target the area throughout multiple growth cycles. Some clients are happy with the hair growth they experience after 5 sessions, while others may choose to continue treatment to further hair reduction.

    You technician will give you an estimated number of sessions it will take for you to reach your treatment goal and let tell you when to come back (typically 4-6 weeks for laser, and 1-2 weeks for electrolysis) to achieve optimal results!

FAQs

Should I do laser or electrolysis?

Both laser hair removal and electrolysis are effective methods, but the right choice depends on your hair type, skin tone, and long-term goals.

  • Laser hair removal is faster, ideal for larger areas, and works best on darker hair.
  • Electrolysis is FDA-approved for permanent hair removal and works on all hair colors and skin types, but it’s more time-consuming.

It's often recommended to do a combination of both treatments. Starting with laser hair removal is a more cost effective way to get rid of the majority of hair, and electrolysis is often needed to treat finer, lighter hairs that the laser cannot treat. This method ensures complete hair removal.

What areas can I treat?

Laser hair removal can be used on nearly any area with unwanted hair, including the face, arms, underarms, full legs, lower legs, bikini line, Brazilian area, buttocks, back, shoulders, chest, abdomen, neck, jawline, feet, and toes. If you're unsure whether a specific area can be treated, we’ll be happy to discuss it during your consultation.

How does pricing work?

Pricing is based on the area being treated. Each area requires a different amount of time and precision, so costs may vary. During your consultation, we’ll provide a customized treatment plan and pricing based on your goals and chosen areas.

What laser do you use?

We use the Candela Gentle Max Pro laser, a trusted medical-grade device known for its safety, effectiveness, and precision.

This machine utilizes both Alexandrite and Nd:YAG wavelengths, making laser hair removal treatment suitable for all skin tones, while delivering powerful results with minimal discomfort.

The Candela Gentle Max Pro includes a cooling system to enhance comfort during treatment.

Do you take insurance?

While we don't currently bill insurance directly, we can provide receipts to submit for reimbursement and will assist in any way we can to make sure you can get reimbursed by your insurance if you are eligible.
