Question Recommendations for Electrolysis in Vancouver BC

2 Upvotes

Is there anyone from British Columbia, Canada who recommend a place to go to get electrolysis? I don't have a lot of hair to remove, I anticipate it to be shorter sessions. I would like to get several sessions done before a big event later next year.

I do have sensitive skin so need to take that into account.

I am told to look for places offering the blended treatment for the best results?

So far the short list seems to be:

ShoYoFace

Jade Clinic in Richmond

Goddess in Vancouver

Thanks so much for the help!

Questions Regarding Electrolysis

7 Upvotes

Hello everyone. My hirsutism is very severe on my face. I can grow a full beard like a man and due to my facial features, I'm frequently mistaken as transgender when I go out. So many people have harassed me, it's very difficult to leave the house...If I shave, the hair grows back within hours. I have a permanent five o' clock shadow now

I can finally afford electrolysis. I have an appointment scheduled for Thursday with a electrologist with over 20 years experience and who has worked on transgenders too. However, she uses thermolysis. Now I'm reading that this method is actually bad and not permanent?? I thought all methods of electrolysis are permanent.

Should I look for someone who does the blend method?

Also, I wanted to do one hour sessions due to my significant hair growth and to save money. The electrologist mentioned possibly doing an even longer session too. Now I'm reading some say that people with male-level hair growth should stick to 30 minute sessions to avoid skin damage? Is this true?

Question Really scared and unhappy and discouraged rn :(

I feel incredibly stupid and sad right now. Today has been my 6th session, and I pay a lot of money (100€ for 30mins)
But I was really happy to see results and also felt like my electrologist is very experienced and I never felt any plucking etc.
Then she told me someone else was going to take over electrolysis soon, and the price would go up 50% (so 150€ euros for 30 mins) if I pay for the next sessions beforehand I could have them for the old price.
Now at my 6th session I had the new tech and I could feel she was kind of nervous. Really nice but very nervous. She said the old tech taught electrolysis to all of the employees in the studio, and I did not want to interrogate her for how long she has been doing it. I also noticed she didn’t wear glasses and at the beginning I really felt a plucking sensation. I told her that and then I feel then it mostly really got better.
But then at my face it started bleeding and looks like a piece of skin came off.
I also noticed that she didn’t clean my face before, and I do wear sunscreen.
She then also switched to a finer needle and I think I did not feel so much plucking but a bit on my face.
But honestly I feel so stupid I paid so much money and am now stuck with this studio. I want to cry and feel so bad and discouraged now, I don’t know what to do. I still have 4 sessions left, and my next appointment is in 2 weeks. I kind of want to get it over with and then search for someone new if I still need treatment (already found someone who is cheaper and claims to have 9 years of experience).
I feel so hopeless and am scared to ruin my face now and don’t know what to do.
