Electrolysis & Skin Tag Removal
in Kirkham
Electrolysis in Kirkham for permanent hair removal and advanced skin treatments — including skin tag removal, thread vein treatment, milia removal and spider naevi.
Not every salon offers this — but for the clients who need it, nothing else will do
Electrolysis is one of those services that not every salon offers — but for the clients who need it, nothing else will do. It’s the only method recognised as truly permanent hair removal, and it works on all hair types and skin tones. I also offer advanced electrolysis for removing minor skin blemishes such as skin tags, thread veins, and milia. These are specialist treatments that require training, precision, and experience — all things I take seriously.
Electrolysis Hair Removal
Electrolysis uses a fine probe and a small electrical current to permanently destroy individual hair follicles. Unlike laser, it works on every hair colour — including white, grey, and fine blonde hairs that laser can’t target.
It’s a slower process than waxing because each hair is treated individually, but the results are permanent. Most clients come for areas where they want hair gone for good — upper lip, chin, or other small, persistent patches.
Sessions are available in 15 or 30-minute blocks depending on the area and the amount of hair being treated.
What Electrolysis Feels Like
You may feel a brief, sharp sensation with each hair — most clients describe it as very manageable. Speed and technique make a real difference, and I’ve spent 17 years refining both.
Some redness is normal immediately afterwards and usually settles within a few hours. The number of sessions you’ll need depends on the area, the amount of hair, and your hair growth cycle. I’ll discuss a realistic plan with you during your first appointment.
Advanced Electrolysis
Advanced electrolysis is a different application of the same technology — used to treat minor skin blemishes rather than hair.
I can treat:
Skin tags
— those small, soft growths that often appear on the neck, underarms, or around the eyes. Treatment is quick and effective for most skin tags.
Thread veins (spider veins)
— small, visible blood vessels that commonly appear on the face, particularly around the nose and cheeks.
Milia
— tiny, hard white bumps that sit under the skin’s surface, often around the eyes and cheeks.
Spider naevi
— small clusters of blood vessels that radiate outward from a central point.
What To Expect From Advanced Electrolysis
Each blemish is treated individually using a fine probe. The procedure is precise and the results are usually visible after a single session, though some blemishes may require a follow-up.
Most blemishes respond well to treatment, but individual results depend on the type, size, and location of the blemish. I’ll always give you an honest assessment of what to expect before we proceed.

What To Know Before Your Appointment
Consultation
For advanced electrolysis, I’ll want to see the area you’d like treated before we proceed. If you’re unsure whether a blemish is suitable for this treatment, get in touch and we can discuss it — or book a short appointment so I can assess in person.
Aftercare
I’ll provide full aftercare instructions at the time of your appointment. In general, treated areas should be kept clean and protected from sun exposure while they heal.
Realistic Expectations
Most blemishes respond well to treatment, but individual results depend on the type, size, and location of the blemish. I’ll always give you an honest assessment of what to expect.
While You’re Here…
Many of my electrolysis clients also have questions about their skin — texture changes, dryness, sensitivity, or areas that just don’t look the way they used to.
If you’ve ever wondered what your skin actually needs — beyond cleansing and moisturising — a Skin Analysis might be worth considering. It’s a relaxed, hour-long session where I assess your skin properly and give you honest recommendations. No obligation, no sales pitch. Just professional advice.
Many of my facial clients start here. It’s a simple, low-commitment way to find out what your skin could benefit from.
