Guide To Electrolysis Hair Removal Bakersfield Customers Will Find Useful

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.

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.

Some people are apprehensive and fear that it will be painful, however with today's modern equipment, this is not the case. The most discomfort one can typically expect is a slight tingling sensation, and it does not have any long-term side effects either, just a temporary reddening of the skin. Sometimes a topical anesthetic is applied first to reduce any discomfort even more.

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.

The electrologist should provide evidence of being fully certified by an accredited institution, and if required by the state, a license. Asking people one knows if they can recommend someone they are happy with, is a good way to make the search easier. Some clinics offer a free consultation which serves as the ideal opportunity to ask the electrologist about his or her experience, training, and other details one may want to know about the procedure.

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.
