Treatment For Use After Waxing
For many with thick, coarse hair in the bikini line and other body areas, hair removal at the waxing spa can result in ingrown hair. This aggravating and painful condition is also known as folliculitis- infection or inflammation of the hair follicles. This issue manifests itself with red irritated bumps at the site of the hair follicles, small to medium sized pustules and itching of the surrounding tissues. For some, folliculitis can also involve the deeper areas of the hair follicle creating a painful lump or cyst. This condition affecting over three million Americans from children to senior citizens can also occur due to excessive sweating, friction or injury to the skin.

How High Frequency Works
High frequency works by administering a small, oscillating high frequency current that produces a tingling, warming sensation on the skin. This is done by placing the unit’s glass electrode on the skins surface and gently gliding it over each affected area for 5 to 10 seconds. Next we implement a method known as sparking, by placing the electrode tip directly over the affected area and quickly tapping the unit for a few seconds. This method creates a small amount of energy, producing oxygen to kill bacteria and aid in the healing process. Clients can realize relief from the inflammation and swelling associated with the condition almost immediately. Healing will continue within the next couple of days with clients seeing the trapped hairs emerging from the skin, flattening of the tissues and decreased redness.
Looking For a Permanent Solution?
For those who wish to have a permanent solution to ingrown hair, electrolysis is also available at Theresa’s Face and Body in Cape Coral Florida. High frequency aids in electrolysis to release the hair and heal the follicle so that the hair can be removed. We also offer high frequency treatment to help dry out and heal acne.
