Thanks to the LASER Hair Removal Smear Campaign, people out there still using Kree epilators (none manufactured new since the late 1970’s and no new models since the early 1970’s) and those who have not bothered to hone their skills, many people are scared to death of “Painful Electrolysis.” Even waxing products feel bold enough to say painful electrolysis, when actual electrolysis is LESS PAINFUL THAT WAXING! :mad:
I swear, you never see the word Electrolysis in print without Painful right next to it. Most of my clients fall asleep while I am working on them even when I have a good movie playing, so it can’t be all that horrible.
I am not saying that there are not practitioners out there who wouldn’t have a clue about how to deliver a comfortable treatment. I am just saying that the possibilities of modern electrolysis are such that use of injectables is simply not needed IF YOU SPEND THE BUCKS ON EDUCATION AND EQUIPMENT instead of drugs to make your client numb, while exposing the client to a list of side effects which include shut down of the digestive system, and sudden death.
The results that E3000 give their clients are top notch. On the other hand, I look at their injectables policy as more of a marketing thing to bring people in from far and wide, because they only have that ability because one of the founders was a doctor who already had the ability to dispense meds. Finding someone to do that for your business is either finding a doctor to let you work out of his office, or finding an anesthetist (who makes $150,000 a year) to make a deal with you to service “your puny office’s needs”.
If you are using better equipment than what is being used at E3000/E2000, most areas can be worked comfortably with no outside pain management needed, as long as the client is willing to get their hydration and electrolytes up to decent levels (most Americans are between mildly and seriously dehydrated) go 3 days without caffeine and other pain increasers like alcoholic beverages, cigarettes and so on. The clients really can be their own worst enemy on this point.
Finally, thanks to Omphaloskeptic, for joining the conversation. The overwhelming majority of my clients find me, realize they have found the answer to their permanent hair removal needs, and never visit a website like this ever again, and tell no one of their experience outside of a small circle of friends. I have been saying for years that I don’t see the need for injections outside of the first clearance on the genitals and possibly for multiple clearances of the anus, but without clients coming on here of their own free will to say that they experienced what I was talking about and backing that statement up, it has been something that has rung hollow to people who have nothing but “Blast And Pluck Practitioners” in their area.
On behalf of those who will be helped by your post information, thank you.
