McKinstry, 1979

Title: Epilation by electrocoagulation: factors that result in regrowth of hair.

Authors: McKinstry CT, Inaba M, Anthony JN

Journal: J Dermatol Surg Oncol 1979 May;5(5):407-11

PMID: 458009, UI: 79217057

From our experience, the most important requirement for permanent epilation by electrocoagulation is not only to destroy hair bulbs, but also to destroy the isthmal regions of hair follicles and the sebaceous glands.
