Short Definition
Electrology is the only process of destroying the hair follicle with an electrical current, for the purpose of permanent removal of hair, safely and economically.
Expanded Information
In 1875, Dr. Charles Michel, an opthamologist, experimented with ways to remove the painful ingrown eyelashes of his patients. The early techniques used fine wires attached to a battery to produce Galvanic Electrolysis. This was a chemical method that utilized direct current to convert normal body salt and water into the compound sodium hydroxide (lye). Lye destroys the cells that initiate hair growth. The galvanic electrolysis method is still used today, though the modern machines are now more efficient and computerized.
In 1923, after the discovery of radio waves and high frequency current, a new method of electrolysis was born. This method, called Thermolysis, uses the high frequency current to produce heat, which cauterizes and destroys the cells in the follicle that causes hair growth. Surprisingly, the needle itself is not hot. The salt water in the tissue around the needle, however, becomes hot because high frequency current causes the atoms in the moisture to be agitated and vibrate against each other generating heat from friction.
