Welcome to Essential Electrolysis

Essential Electrolysis is a bespoke beauty clinic in Cork and Limerick specialising in permanent hair removal.

“Electrolysis can be a positive life-changing experience for anyone who has suffered the agony of unwanted facial or body hair growth.’

At Essential Electrolysis we believe in making your hair-removal experience exceptional because that is our single-minded focus.

Started by Margaret Blake, Essential Electrolysis is dedicated to providing your electrolysis service to the highest ethics and professional standards.

Most women and some men fight a daily battle with unwanted hair growth on their faces and bodies. Areas that can be considered particularly troublesome are chin, upper lip, breast/chest, abdomen, lower back and thighs. 

Excess hair is far more common than you might think since there is social stigma attached, we can go to great pains to cover it or remove it temporarily.

At each Essential Electrolysis treatment we ask what your expectations are, what area is most bothering you and start on that area so that you leave feeling satisfied you got the best possible result in the time allotted.

We are totally committed to you getting a first class experience with optimum results in a clinical environment for all your treatment needs.

At Essential Electrolysis, we are dedicated to providing a professional service to the highest standard.

The Essential Facts about Hair Removal

  1. Hair grows in cycles.

  2. The hair you see is not all the hair you have.

  3. Electrolysis is the ONLY permanent solution to unwanted hair, as deemed by the FDA.

  4. Plucking at, tweezing, waxing and threading reduce the number of hairs that your electrolysis technician can see.

  5. If your electrolysis practitioner cannot see the hair, they cannot treat them, so please refer to number 4 above and STOP.

  6. It takes more than one appointment to permanently CLEAR an area.

  7. Gently exfoliating skin before treatment opens up follicles and lets the unwanted hair slide out easily.

  8. Clean skin releases unwanted hair more easily.

  9. Essential Electrolysis is the only clinic in Munster that specialises in Permanent Hair Removal.

  10. Electrolysis is also known as Electro Epilation and Diathermy.

We believe that Hair Removal should be pain-free and effective by providing the latest technology and best visual aids we aim for least sensation and maximum effectiveness.

What people say about Essential Electrolysis

“I spent years waxing, plucking, shaving, epilating, bleaching trying to rid myself of unwanted facial hair but none of it worked for more than a few days.

I was very conscious of my facial hair and when I tried to cover it with make up it stood out even more. It knocked my confidence and I avoided standing too close to people in case they saw my beard!

But now all that has changed since I've been going to Margaret for the past few months mostly weekly I have not had to wax or tweeze one single hair from my face.

Before I began treatment I was tweezing new unwanted hair every single day around my chin especially etc and now thanks to Essential Electrolysis I am a new woman - nearly completely hair free and a lot more confident with zero need to tweeze or wax etc ever again.

Thank you Margaret!”
