• Does needle epilation cause skin irritation?

  After the electroepilation, small crusts and skin irritations may occur. The best way to prevent skin irritation is by moisturising the skin sufficiently in the days before the treatment.

• What is the best time for needle epilation – summer or winter?

  Since the skin must be protected from direct sunlight after needle epilation, winter is the ideal season for the treatment. In the warm months, a sunscreen with a high sun protection factor must be used.

• How many sessions does needle epilation take?

  Needle epilation can only destroy those hair roots that are currently in the growth phase. Therefore, on average between 4 and 6 sessions are necessary.

• How long does needle epilation last?

• What is needle epilation or electroepilation?
