One of the most frequently asked question of debate in electrolysis, is which modality is the best,  thermolysis, galvanic or blend.  The answer is very simple – ALL three are effective at permanently removing hair. It is primarily the skill of your electrologist that determines whether or not any one of those methods are effective for them.

Galvanic was the original way of doing electrolysis and it works by chemically dissolving the inside of the follicle to destroy it. It absolutely works to remove hair, but the problem is, it takes as long as 30 seconds per follicle to kill a hair. To combat this, the manufacturers of galvanic epilators created “multiple needle galvanic” (MNG) machines, which treat as many as 16 hairs at a time.  Don’t let the word needle scare you, they are using the same dull, rounded tip probes that other electrolysis modalities use. One of the downsides of galvanic, and as a consequence, blend, is that it passes a DC current through the body, which can be dangerous for certain medical conditions, requiring a doctor’s permission to treat a person with them.

 

Thermolysis is a newer method, which uses localised heat, almost like a miniature microwave oven inside the follicle, to destroy the structures in the follicle. It is EXTREMELY fast, typically only taking a few hundredths or tenths of a second to work. Blend is a combination of both galvanic and thermolysis, giving it the advantages of both, although it is slower than thermolysis I am using Thermolysis.
