Does electrolysis work for PCOS hormonal hair? +
Yes - and it is the most effective treatment available. Laser depends on pigment contrast and is blocked by active hormones. Electrolysis destroys each follicle individually with an electrical current, permanently, regardless of hair color or hormone levels. Aida specializes in PCOS cases and works with endocrinologists' patients from Newport Beach and across Orange County.
I've already done laser at a Newport Beach clinic. Can electrolysis finish what laser started? +
Yes - and this is actually a very common reason clients come to Aida. Laser reduces hair density but cannot permanently clear a follicle the way electrolysis can. It also completely fails on light, fine, grey or hormonally-active hair. Electrolysis can treat every remaining follicle that laser left behind, regardless of color or cause. Many of Aida's clients do exactly this: laser first, electrolysis to finish permanently.
Does sun exposure from the beach affect electrolysis treatment? +
Yes - you should avoid direct sun on the treated area for 24-48 hours before and after a session. Active tans, especially on the face, can increase sensitivity and risk of post-treatment hyperpigmentation. Aida will assess your skin at the consultation and adjust timing if needed. For Newport Beach clients who spend time outdoors, scheduling sessions in fall or winter often produces the cleanest results.
Is the consultation really free? No obligation? +
