The six basic sources which can be used to produce electricity are: Friction – electricity produced by ______ two materials together. Pressure – electricity produced by applying pressure to a crystal of certain materials. Heat – electricity produced by heating the junction of a thermo-couple. Light – electricity produced by light ______ striking photo-sensitive materials. Magnetism – electricity produced by the movement of a magnet and a wire that results in cutting through lines of force.

Electrolysis is defined as the decomposition of an electrolyte by the action of a direct electric current passing through it. Broadly speaking, an electrode the size of the hair (called a needle or probe) is placed into the hair follicle and used to conduct a very low current to the growing portion of the hair follicle. The current disables the growing portion of the follicle leading to its permanent destruction and the inability to produce ______.

Study Notes
Electrolysis for Hair Removal
- Electrolysis is a procedure designed to provide permanent hair removal.
- It is the only hair removal method that gives permanent results.
- It offers freedom from the constant use of temporary methods of hair removal.
Comparison with Laser Hair Removal
- Electrolysis is the only method of hair removal that can claim 'permanent hair removal'.
- Electrolysis works for everybody on all hairs and all skin types.
- Laser doesn't work in 60 percent of the cases.
Electricity Basics
- Electricity is the flow of electrons along a conductor.
- Galvani explained the 'animal electricity' theory.
- Direct current produced by a battery was known as galvanic current.
- An alternating current continuously reverses its direction.
Thermolysis
- Thermolysis uses a range of megahertz, from 1 to 27MHz.
- An oscillator increases the frequency of thermolysis to as much as 30MHz.
Galvanic Electrolysis
- Galvanic electrolysis is carried out by direct voltage (AC to DC) and controlled current flowing in one direction.
- Direct current flows only in one direction.
- In direct current or 'galvanic' electrolysis, the electrons flow from the machine source, through the needle holder, and into the electrolysis needle which acts as the cathode pole.
Sources of Electricity
- The six basic sources which can be used to produce electricity are: Friction, Pressure, Heat, Light, Magnetism, and Electrolysis.
- Electricity produced by friction involves rubbing two materials together.
- Electricity produced by pressure involves applying pressure to a crystal of certain materials.
- Electricity produced by light involves light striking photo-sensitive materials.
- Electricity produced by magnetism involves the movement of a magnet and a wire that results in cutting through lines of force.
Electrolysis Process
