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.

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.

Some people have a common misconception that electrolysis will hurt, but this is not true of the latest equipment used in most facilities. There can be a minor tingling sensation, and in some places a topical anesthetic will be applied prior to the treatment, further reducing any discomfort. The skin may appear slightly reddened afterwards, but this will not last long.

Home electrolysis kits do not offer the same results as professional treatment does, and this is generally not a procedure that can safely be performed by an untrained person. "Electric tweezers" is a professional service, but it should not be confused with genuine electrolysis since it doesn't provide permanent results. Only traditional needle electrolysis has been recognized by the AMA and FDA as a permanent hair removal method.

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.

Upon the client's request, the electrologist should be happy to present evidence of having graduated from an accredited training facility, resulting in him or her being fully certified in this discipline, and if the state requires, also produce a valid license. It can be helpful to ask people one knows if they can recommend an electrologist they are pleased with.

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.
