Which hair removal method utilizes 12-14 needles to decompose the papilla?

  1. Thermolysis

  2. Multiple needle method

  3. Galvanic method

  4. Tweezing

The correct answer is: Multiple needle method

The other options are incorrect because they do not involve the use of multiple needles to decompose the papilla. Thermolysis involves the use of heat to destroy hair follicles, while the galvanic method uses direct current to cause a chemical reaction in the papilla. Tweezing simply removes hair by pulling it out at the root. The multiple needle method, or electrolysis, is the only option that specifically mentions the use of 12-14 needles to decompose the papilla, making it the correct answer.
