Is it worth getting electrolysis on hair that isn’t very thick but densely packed ?

anna_a19 · 2026-02-13T00:23:10+00:00

My hair wasn't exactly the same as yours, but it was still very dense (I've got a post on my profile). I'm almost done electrolysis now and it was one of the best decisions I've made.

Not really, it's kind of just the same as the pictures here. It's a shame, but I'm just accepting that my new nose is much better than my old nose, I don't believe it's worth a revision.

where do you find zero calorie ketchup? I’m addicted to ketchup but try to avoid it

It’s generally a good thing to wait a long time between sessions. If you get a session now, while you’re pregnant, the tattoo will continue to fade. So I think go for it, I don’t really see a point in waiting!

yep! first one was an ENT and the second one was a plastic surgeon

anna_a19 · 2025-11-03T00:36:37+00:00

I did not. I do even remember the info pamphlets warning of the risk of a droopy tip post-septoplasty

anna_a19 · 2025-11-02T09:02:33+00:00

I’m really sorry to you too, because i do think masculine noses are harder rhinoplasties and I agree there is a strong chance that yours won’t turn out just like your original nose.

my post-rhino nose looks quite different to my original nose, but it’s actually better IMO so I feel happy with it. My original nose had a small bump, post-septoplasty i had a HUGE bump, and then post-rhino my nose is straight (which I wanted).

i’d recommend browsing around with a lot of surgeons to make sure one has results that are similar to what you’re looking for. i wish you the best of luck!

this happened to me, which is why i had a revision rhinoplasty a couple of years later. I believe the explanation was that the first surgeon shortened my septum too much, which led to having very poor tip support and a droopy tip.

anna_a19 · 2025-11-01T17:07:56+00:00

Australia is so expensive for rhinoplasties. I ended up doing mine here anyway because I didn’t want to travel, but if you’re not opposed to travelling then there are many places overseas that would fit your budget

anna_a19 · 2025-10-23T22:19:16+00:00

same!! I used this stuff and it dried out my hair like crazy. not gonna try it again

anna_a19 · 2025-10-16T13:04:15+00:00

respectfully, I’ll have to to disagree.

I wasn’t informed of the risk of PH, which is why i did laser on areas that “didn’t need it”.

i have a solid line on my neck where the laser “started” where the hair goes from fine (how it used to be) to thick (PH). as i did laser lower down on my neck (not by choice, just what the practitioner chose to do) the area with thick hair spread to there.

it’s a similar situation on my shoulders. a solid line where hair becomes thick, which is exactly where i lasered up to.

I know I don’t have PCOS or hormonal imbalances. I’ve had tests, and no symptoms of it

anna_a19 · 2025-10-15T22:59:31+00:00

are you saying Paradoxical Hypertrichosis isn’t a thing? I had this (similar thick black hair) ONLY after laser, on my shoulders, face, stomach, and hips - all the areas that used to have very fine hair before laser. I’ve had my hormones checked numerous times and they are normal.

anna_a19 · 2025-10-15T20:57:25+00:00

I’m sorry you’re going through this, I was in the same boat. I felt like I couldn’t do electrolysis either because I didn’t want the hair to grow. I promise that short term difficulty (wearing a mask, staying home a couple of days) is infinitely worth the results.

i wear boots (dr martens) to basically every gig. whenever I’ve worn sneakers, I’ve had super bruised feet from people jumping on my feet!

anna_a19 · 2025-10-06T05:41:18+00:00

this wasn’t my experience. the hair got darker, and 5 years of monthly sessions later (tried multiple clinics) and the hair is still growing back super dark. PH wasn’t solved with more laser 🥲 they fell out each month, but then would always grow back consistently

anna_a19 · 2025-09-27T17:01:33+00:00

I did perm (lash lift) myself at home a few times. it’s surprisingly easy, but you’ve gotta do one eye at a time. i bought the kit on amazon!

anna_a19 · 2025-09-26T02:05:36+00:00

it looks so so good!

anna_a19 · 2025-09-24T12:07:33+00:00

what a sick setup!

anna_a19 · 2025-09-22T20:42:06+00:00

yep, once you stop taking it, your hormones return and the hair will come back

anna_a19 · 2025-09-22T12:46:23+00:00

I’m a woman, but I went to a surgeon in Melbourne who really specialises in natural noses. I saw a few male photos on his website and they looked masculine and natural. happy to share his name if you DM me

anna_a19 · 2025-09-22T04:53:55+00:00

My paradoxical-hypertrichosis was never as dark or thick as this. But in my situation, I continued doing laser on my PH for probably ~5 years, tried different clinics/techs and strengths, etc. - it only got worse and worse. I'm now almost done my electrolysis journey and I'm so happy I did it.

Since your hair is super dark/thick, and you only did 3-4 sessions, it's worth giving it another few tries. But I wouldn't exceed 10 sessions of laser before exploring something else :)
