Cost of Electrolysis
Electrolysis hair removal takes a commitment of money, time and
energy. Most electrologists charge between $45 and $125 per hour. You
can figure out how much electrolysis will cost by multiplying your
electrologists hourly rate by the hours for a particular area. It is
very difficult to estimate the cost of electrolysis since hair grows
denser for some people versus others. While an upper lip may take as
little as one hour to treat, a man's back hair removal treatment may
take 150 hours or even more.
Although it is not
easy to estimate the cost of hair removal or time it will take to
remove an individual's hair, the chart below can be used as a general
guide. It may make more sense to use laser hair removal as the method
to remove hair from large areas such as backs or full legs because of
the significant cost and time savings. It may also make sense to use
laser for small areas if only to save significant amounts of time.
