Certified Electrolysis vs. Do-it-your-own Electrolysis Treatment

Home hair removal devices sold online for home users are not rated as professional grade units and are marketed as easy to use and effective.

Certified Electrologists receive their training from an accredited electrology school that meets industry standards and is recognized both provincially and federally. Specializing in permanent hair removal solutions, a certified electrologist will confidently provide professional services by delivering quality treatments and care to clients. Additionally, they use professional equipment and are trained to take every precaution to ensure client safety for infection prevention.

Home hair removal devices sold online for home users are not rated as professional grade units and are marketed as easy to use and effective. Unfortunately, most often this is not the case as many consumers tend to become overwhelmed, unsatisfied and frustrated with their experience. Before purchasing any home hair removal device, consumers should do their research. Simply, if the seller is unwilling to accommodate the buyer with the minimum 500+ hours of training required and offer support, unexpected complications may arise. To the unskilled user, an increased risk of infection, scarring, loss of pigmentation, and re-growth of the hair are common concerns that arise with using these sorts of devices. In these instances, consumers are left with an unusable unit that is high risk and unsafe.
