Information About Electrolysis Hair Removal Bakersfield Clients Should Know

By Karina Frost


Everyone wants a full head of hair, but on other areas of the body, it is often considered less desirable. Numerous products claim to be able to effectively eliminate it, but the only one which offers a long-term solution is electrolysis, a permanent depilatory technique. If they are thinking about undergoing electrolysis hair removal Bakersfield clients should know what it consists of and the importance of having it done by a professional.

First developed over 100 years ago, this method for eliminating body hair can be used on most places where undesirable follicles grow. A fine probe is inserted into each follicle one at a time at the surface of the skin. The growth center of the hair is destroyed by heat energy, and then the loose hairs can be lifted out with tweezers.

The follicles grow at differing rates from one another and pass through several stages, which necessitates multiple treatment sessions in order to fully eliminate the section of hair. Clients may need to have it done weekly or bi-weekly on average. Session lengths can range from 15 minutes to an hour.

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.

This is a treatment which should only be administered by a professional electrologist, which is a person who has been trained to perform this procedure. Therefore it is the responsibility of the client to ensure that the person he or she chooses has the necessary credentials and experience before receiving treatment.

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.

One must also feel at ease with the electrologist and confident in his or her professionalism and abilities, if not, it's advisable to look elsewhere. Making sure that they only use needle electrolysis is important, as some clinics use another method such as electric tweezers that is not permanent. The place should be very clean and follow sanitary practices such as wearing gloves and using disposable probes for each client.
