Electrolysis 100 Arlington Heights reviews?

[Bri2020]

Has anyone used Electrolysis 100 in Arlington Heights IL for large volume clearing? I'm unhappy with PHR right now.

get 8 hours of electrolysis, and away you go. No such luck.

I know a few electrolysis people and they all are of the opinion it is just too hard on them to do hours of genital work. It is hard to do it and keep good body mechanics. But yes, I agree that more "Medi-spa" type settings need to offer the large volume clearing with sedation/pain management.

Hi Bri! I actually had an amazing experience with Electrolysis 100. They have two locations. One in Chicago and the other one in Arlington Heights. They have 2 Electrologists working on both locations I think: Valeria and Anastasia. I just finished my large volume Electrolysis with Intravenous IV deep sedation treatment with them. I'm mtf. 

I was getting electrolysis at a different clinic in NC but because it was so painful and it was taking so long for me I started to look for alternatives. Thankfully I found this clinic in Chicago and I saw on their website that they offer a set of pain relief options including Intravenous Hydration, Oral Sedation, Lidocaine Injections, Intravenous Sedation administrated by their board certified nurse practitioner and anesthesiologist. 

I live in NC and so I had to plan all my trips in advance. After I submitted the consultation form they got back to me quickly. They confirmed my booking and the lady was kind enough to ask me if they could help with anything to make my trip as smooth as possible.
My first session on a Monday morning started at 8 AM and lasted for about 6 hours. When I got there they quickly let me into the room where I changed into a gown. The nurse administered topical Lidocaine, which I sat with for like 10 minutes before the Electrolysis session began. 

All the procedure lasted 6 hours straight and we wrapped up just after 3 PM. There was no pain or discomfort from the electrolysis. I just couldn’t believe it.

Some folks are better than others when it comes to electrolysis. 

 

My first session was remarkably easy, and I thought it would be smooth sailing from then on. The electrologist was highly recommended and very good. But the more I went, the more difficult the ordeal became in terms of pain. I meticulously followed all of the protocols for numbing, but it finally got to a point at which I couldn't stand going any more.
