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.

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.

Hairs go through several stages of growth in any given area of the body, so it is necessary to attend several sessions in order to achieve the results one would hope for from this treatment. Most people need to come in once every week or two, as needed, but this varies from one person to the next. A session usually takes 15 minutes to one hour to complete.

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.

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.

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.
