Electrolysis Hair Removal, on your doorstep.
Our Reading clinic on 292 Oxford Road (RG30 1AD) offers electrolysis hair removal, and is an easy visit for anyone in Tilehurst, Caversham, Earley, Whitley, Woodley, Wokingham, Theale. You get the same qualified clinicians, clinical-grade technology and written, transparent pricing used across the CoLaz network, close to home.
Electrolysis at CoLaz is the only hair removal method recognised as permanent for any hair colour, including fine, grey, blonde and red hair that laser cannot target. A fine probe slides alongside each hair into the follicle, a brief low-energy current disables the growth cells, and the hair is lifted out. From £10 per short session, scaled by time, across our seven UK clinics.
Every treatment starts with a free consultation, and your plan and price are agreed in writing before you book a single session. To get started, message the Reading team on WhatsApp, or read the full electrolysis hair removal treatment guide.

What is electrolysis and how is it different from laser hair removal? +
Electrolysis is the single-follicle method of permanent hair removal. A fine probe is inserted alongside one hair, a brief low-energy current disables the cells in the follicle that produce the hair, and the hair is lifted out. Laser hair removal works on many follicles at once but only on hairs that contain enough pigment for the laser to target, which is why laser does not work well on fine, grey, blonde or red hair. Electrolysis works on any hair colour and any skin tone because it does not rely on pigment.
Is electrolysis permanent? +
Yes. Electrolysis is the only hair removal method recognised by the medical and electrology bodies in the UK as truly permanent, meaning treated follicles do not produce hair again. New hairs can still grow from follicles that were not active during your treatment course, so a full result requires several sessions over months as the hair cycles through its phases. We agree your treatment schedule at consultation and update it at each session based on what is left to treat.
Does electrolysis hurt? +
Sensation is described as a brief warm pinch on each hair, lasting a fraction of a second. Most patients find it manageable on small areas such as the upper lip, chin or eyebrows without any anaesthetic. For larger or more sensitive areas a topical numbing cream is available on request. Modern equipment is much gentler than the older galvanic devices, and our therapists adjust the current per follicle based on what your skin tolerates.
