Harvey, you have been given guidance as to how you can be a better contributor. If you need in depth technical information, then you need to call Dectro and see if they will cooperate in as far as to connect you to a technician. I have given more time to this than I care to and have explained about Synchro in another thread to the extent that I thought would satisfy you. James made the same attempt today. I don’t know what more you expect. You’ll just have to take this to another level and argue with the people at Dectro. I just know that their product works like a beauty.
Hooray… Over the years I have watched many “new” ideas presented. The best one is the concept of making sure all hairs treated are in the anagen phase and the methods to insure they are all in anagen. Shaving or waxing BEFORE the FIRST treatment is probably the best idea ever. It saves a load of time that was wasted treating hairs that were not in the best phase for treatment. This virtually insures great results for destruction of growing hairs and delivers speedy results for the patient to virtually insure your results and save loads of time and money for the patient with absolutely NO SENSATION OF TWEEZING. This is the best way to insure your business and virtually guarantees your results so that you will be known far and wide as a GREAT electrologist.
Electrologists used to spend a lot of time explaining to patients how we operate and why we can do what we claim we can do.
Think this over carefully. When the patient waxes all hairs on the surface are ripped out regardless of the phase they are in. This means all these follicles will reorganize and immediately go into anagen. It will take a few weeks before these hairs regrow and can be seen on the surface but they will ALL be in anagen. This will just about GUARANTEE SUCCESS. I know we can’t say or do this, however, It will soon become apparent we have something here.
We should have a mantra that tells patients to wax or shave one week before treatment starts as a routine before we start on them. Something CUTE and CATCHY. How about a contest for all of us to try to come up with something that spells this out for patients to understand ?
“Tired of waxing or shaving…TRIED and TRUE electrolysis can do it for you”. Do it one last time and see us one or two weeks later. You will be free of hair in unwanted places."
I’m going to try and do something with this. How about a contest. The winner gets recognition from their
Technically speaking… All thermolysis machines have a computer chip in them to control timing and intensity. The chip is what enables us to reprogram adjustments and maintain the settings we decide on.
I am really big on suggesting, even pleading with the client that they shave or wax before we commence treatment. They don’t have to do this of course, but it really saves them money and time in the long run if we can just get down to the business of treating good moist anagen hairs. Sensation is better, too.
With the newer computerized epilators (pertaining to your last comment) the electrologist still has to think and adjust the levels of intensity and timing according to the client’s unique situation.
However, in my place of work, I have a big poster that reads:
THE HIGHER TIME HAS PASSED SINCE YOUR LAST TEMPORARY DEPILATION, PLUS YOU WILL SOON SEE THE GOOD RESULTS OF THE ELECTROLYSIS.
