ALKALINE WASH
The DMK Alkaline Wash system is a remarkable treatment for all areas of the face and body, designed to reduce fine, downy hair. This type of hair is very difficult to remove with other methods as the growth is usually dense and would take a long time to treat with electrolysis. It is also not suitable to be treated with IPL or Laser because it has no colour for the laser to target.
Alkaline Wash can remove large areas of hair in one treatment without discomfort, in comparison to other hair-removal systems. It also works well when combined with electrolysis and laser, which are suitable for terminal hairs. After your first treatment, the hair will grow back at its normal rate, but as treatments progress the hair regrowth rate will become slower and the hair will weaken; usually resulting in a permanent loss over a period of time.
The treatment is completely pain-free, however in some cases the area can appear red and warm which is normal and will subside after a short period of time.

HOW MANY TREATMENTS ARE NEEDED?
Final results
This will vary dependent on many things i.e., how the hair was previously treated, how long it has been there, the reasons for the hair growth e.g., hormonal, medications etc. Some clients report a reduction in hair growth after just one treatment. However, there is no guarantee as every client's skin is different. Treatment can be carried out every 4-6 weeks or as and when needed.
