Many salons buy separate devices for different body areas, because each works on only one frequency. EVO X HD has all three in one unit: 6.78, 13.56 and 27.12 MHz. A delicate upper lip, coarse beard hair and large body areas – all done at one workstation, without switching equipment.
One device instead of several means a smaller investment, less space in the treatment room, one service partner and one training for the team. The device selects the frequency for the area and hair thickness, and the person being treated gets a faster, more comfortable treatment.
Once you select the area and hair thickness, EVO X HD sets the mode, pulse time and power. You can change them at any moment of the treatment.
Current divided into segments of about 2 ms. Energy at the base of the follicle stays constant, and the person being treated does not feel the typical pulsing.
A measuring head checks skin conductivity on a 0–100% scale. You adjust pulse time and power based on the result.
Programmes for post-laser and IPL, paradoxical regrowth, ingrown, distorted and curly hair.
Bipolar iontophoresis delivers water-based anti-ageing products into the superficial layers of the skin of the face and neck.
Closing broken capillaries, removing cherry angiomas and skin tags. Extra treatments on the same device.
Training videos for every area, recommended probe (needle) and insertion depth, menu in 4 languages, updates via Wi-Fi.

Below we describe every current and every EVO X HD mode: how it works, what the person being treated feels and when the device chooses it. So that even someone at the start of their electrology journey knows exactly what they are investing in.
HF current is a radio wave. When the probe is in the follicle, the current changes direction millions of times per second. Water molecules around the probe vibrate, rub against each other and generate heat – exactly where the probe tip is. This heat coagulates the cells from which the hair regrows. The higher the frequency, the faster the heat builds up, so the pulse can be shorter and the treatment faster and more comfortable.
Most devices work on a single frequency. EVO X HD has three and, according to the manufacturer, is the only device on the market with these three frequencies in one system. The device suggests a frequency for the area and hair thickness, and the electrologist can change it at any moment.
“Flash” is the pulse shape – the way the device delivers heat into the follicle. EVO X HD selects the mode automatically, by area and hair thickness.
Direct current triggers a chemical reaction in the follicle: water and salt in the tissue form sodium hydroxide, known as lye. The lye dissolves the cells from which the hair regrows. The method is slower than thermolysis but very effective on coarse hair and difficult cases. On EVO X HD, electrolysis is available in manual mode, with current adjustable from 0 to 3 mA.
Blend combines the speed of thermolysis with the effectiveness of electrolysis. During a single probe insertion, direct current produces lye and HF current warms it. Warm lye works faster and also reaches the curves and sides of the follicle, so it copes well with coarse, deep and curly hair. The pulse lasts longer than in thermolysis, and during that time you feel gentle warmth and a light tingling.
EVO X HD selects the blend variant for the area and hair thickness. You can change the basic current parameters, and the device keeps the ratio of both currents correct.
They make the treatment effective, comfortable and repeatable, regardless of the experience of the person at the device.
Practical knowledge we use in our training, based on the Silhouet-Tone manual and our clinic practice. Print the cheat sheet (PDF, in Polish) and keep it at your workstation.
The finer the hair, the shallower it sits. The coarser, the deeper. This is how we choose probes in our clinic:
Gold conducts current better, so with a gold probe we work at lower treatment parameters. Ballet F-type probes have a diameter of 0.002" (F2), 0.003" (F3) and 0.004" (F4). Insulated probes are not used for electrolysis or blend.
Hair not coming out after one pulse? Work in this order:
If that is still not enough: the “Difficult hair” option (Curly on ST-350), Repeat, a larger probe or Blend for hair of medium thickness and above.
The device suggests the maximum permissible parameters for the given hair. The electrologist decides whether to work at them or to treat effectively at slightly lower settings, protecting the skin of the person being treated. Hair sticking to the probe? The intensity is too high.
The treatment is performed on a contact gel: we choose COSMIX Hydro Gel Base, a natural carbomer-free gel that conducts current well and soothes and cools the skin. The circuit is closed by a return electrode wrapped in a damp towel that covers the whole electrode. The person being treated must keep contact with it at all times. Move the active electrode slowly over the skin. Only a light tingling should be felt; if there is discomfort, lower the intensity.
Based on the manufacturer’s list and our practice. Check the list with the person before every treatment. If in doubt, refer them to a doctor or ask for written medical consent.
With medical consent or after a consultation and test treatment:

When you buy EVO X HD or ST-350 from the official Silhouet-Tone representative, you are not left alone with the device. We help you introduce electrolysis into your salon menu and support you every step of the way, long after the training.
