Since 1963
"Electrolysis is an exact science." — Dr. Schneider
"Electrolysis is an exact science." — Dr. Schneider
In 1963, Portugal was unfamiliar with permanent hair removal. Dr. Schneider, a visionary medical analyst trained in the USA, recognized the transformative potential of electrolysis.
While Europe was still using archaic methods, he brought the most advanced American technology of the time to Lisbon. He founded Terry System with an unwavering commitment: medical safety and guaranteed results.
Terry System has been at the forefront of permanent hair removal in Lisbon since 1963. Founded with the vision of providing effective and lasting solutions, we have continuously refined our techniques over six decades.
Our clinic in the Roma neighborhood of Lisbon combines the wisdom of traditional electrolysis with modern innovations, ensuring the highest standards of safety, comfort, and effectiveness for our clients.
What sets us apart is our unwavering commitment to personalized care. We understand that every client's skin and hair are unique, so we create customized treatment plans that meet individual needs.
A family history dedicated to perfection.

Commitment to Results
While many clinics offer "everything for everyone," we made a conscious decision: to do only one thing, but to do it better than anyone else.
We are exclusive specialists in electrolysis. We don't do laser, we don't do general aesthetics. We dedicate 100% of our time, training, and investment to perfecting the art of permanent hair removal.
60 years of accumulated and shared knowledge.
Dignified and inclusive treatment for all bodies.
Constant investment in the world's best technology.
We promise only what we can deliver.
Our team combines the wisdom of professionals with 40 years at the clinic with the energy of new talents trained in our rigorous protocols.
Located on the prestigious Avenida Duque de Loulé, we created an environment that combines clinical safety with the comfort of a spa.
Behind the technology and medical protocols, there is a group of people united by a common purpose. Many of our specialists have been working with us for decades, creating bonds that go far beyond the professional.
This harmony is reflected in the service. When you enter Terry System, you are not just a client; you are welcomed into an environment of trust, respect, and genuine care.
We believe that permanent hair removal is more than aesthetics; it is mental health and well-being. We actively work with the Transgender community and PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) support groups to offer accessible and compassionate solutions to those who need it most.
Come and meet the space where tradition meets innovation. Your first evaluation consultation is our gift.
