Information About Electrolysis Hair Removal Bakersfield Clients Should Know

By Karina Frost


Unwanted hair in various areas of the body is an issue that many women and some men struggle with and are constantly searching for the best way to put an end to it. While there are numerous methods advertised on the market which claim to accomplish this feat, electrolysis is the best choice for permanent results. When interested in electrolysis hair removal Bakersfield customers should first find out what the procedure consists of and recognize the importance of finding a good electrologist.

This technique is a way of removing individual hairs safely from most areas of the body and permanently gets rid of the hair. It has been used for over 100 years and consists of inserting a fine probe into the individual follicles at the skin's surface. Heat energy destroys the growth center of each follicle and the hairs are then removed using tweezers.

Several sessions are most often needed for the majority of clients since follicles do not grow in a uniform manner, but rather at varying rates, so it's necessary to treat the area multiple times in order to eliminate all of them. Once every week or two weeks is common, but this depends on the client and the area being treated. Sessions range from 15 minutes to an hour in length.

At one time, this procedure was known to be rather painful, which may cause some people to hesitate having it done, but this is no longer the case with the modern equipment used today. It is normal to feel a bit of a tingling sensation, and sometimes even this will not be experienced because a topical anesthetic will be applied first. Skin may appear reddish afterwards, but this will fade quickly.

Electrolysis is the only method of permanent hair removal recognized by the Food and Drug Administration and American Medical Association. The "electric tweezer" is a similar method, but is not the same thing and unlike electrolysis, it does not produce permanent results. Devices marketed for home use should also be avoided as they are less effective and not always safe to use by non-professionals.

An electrologist is a professional technician who has taken an approved instructional course in this field. Clients must make sure that the individual they choose to perform this procedure meets this requirement and ideally has a reasonable amount of experience treating customers as well.

Electrologists must provide proof of certification by an accredited training institute if requested by the client. In some states a license is also required in this discipline, licenses must be valid and up to date. One of the best ways to locate a good electrologist is to ask people one knows for a recommendation. Many electrologists will offer free consultations during which the client can find out more about their training and experience.

Setting up an initial consultation is the best way to meet the electrologist and determine if he or she is professional, competent, and someone one feel comfortable with in general, if they aren't, it's time to keep looking. The facility where the treatment is done also needs to be very clean, with gloves and disposable probes being used. One must also confirm that the technique they use is in fact needle electrolysis, not another method, as these are not permanent.
