PCOS & Hormonal Hair Removal
Unwanted facial or body hair caused by PCOS or other hormonal conditions can be frustrating, emotionally exhausting, and difficult to manage. At Zap House, we provide permanent hair removal in a welcoming, judgment-free environment where your concerns are heard and your treatment plan is tailored to your individual needs.
Whether you've recently been diagnosed with PCOS, have experienced unwanted hair growth for years, or are dealing with hair growth caused by another hormonal condition or medication, we're here to help you achieve lasting results.
Why Hormonal Hair Growth Happens
Hormonal conditions can stimulate hair follicles to produce thicker, darker hairs in areas that typically grow only fine, light hair. This type of hair growth is known as hirsutism and most commonly affects the:
✦ Face (Chin, lip, and neck)
✦ Chest
✦ Abdomen
✦Back
While Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common causes of hirsutism, unwanted hair growth can also be associated with:
✦ Menopause
✦ Thyroid disorders
✦ Adrenal disorders
✦ Certain medications
✦ Other hormonal imbalances
✦ Genetics
Managing the underlying condition may help slow the development of new hairs, but it typically does not remove hair that has already developed.
This is where permanent hair removal comes in.
Why Electrolysis?
By permanently destroying the cells responsible for producing hair, treated follicles can no longer grow a new hair.
Because hormonal conditions may continue to stimulate previously inactive follicles, new hairs can still appear over time. This doesn't mean treated hairs are growing back, it simply means additional follicles have become active.
Electrolysis permanently treats the hairs that are present while helping you stay ahead of new growth with maintenance treatments as needed.
Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal can also be an excellent option for many people experiencing hormonal hair growth, especially when treating larger areas with darker hair.
Many clients choose to begin with laser hair removal to quickly reduce the amount of hair before finishing with electrolysis for complete permanent clearance of the remaining hairs.
Laser hair removal services are coming soon to Zap House.
Living with unwanted hair can affect confidence, self-esteem, and everyday life. Many of our clients have spent years tweezing, shaving, waxing, or hiding the areas that bother them most.
Our goal is to provide a supportive space where you feel comfortable, respected, and never judged. Whether your unwanted hair is caused by PCOS, another hormonal condition, or you're simply looking for a permanent solution, we're here to help.
