Facial Hair Removal Electrolysis 2

Question 1

What is the blend method in electrolysis?

Accepted Answer

Combining galvanic DC current and thermolysis AC current simultaneously

Answer

The blend method simultaneously uses galvanic current to produce lye and thermolysis current to heat it, creating more effective follicle destruction.

Question 2

Which hair type responds best to galvanic electrolysis?

Accepted Answer

Distorted, curved, or deep follicles that are harder to treat with thermolysis

Answer

Galvanic lye diffuses around the follicle without requiring a perfectly straight probe insertion, making it effective for distorted follicles.

Question 3

Can electrolysis permanently remove white or gray facial hair?

Accepted Answer

Yes, because it destroys the follicle with current, not light

Answer

Unlike laser, electrolysis does not rely on melanin and can permanently destroy follicles of any hair color including white and gray.

Question 4

What is the key sanitation requirement for electrolysis probes?

Accepted Answer

Single-use, disposable sterile probes must be used for each client

Answer

Because probes penetrate the skin, single-use sterile probes are mandatory to prevent cross-contamination and blood-borne pathogen transmission.

Question 5

How does the electrologist avoid over-treating an area during a facial electrolysis session?

Accepted Answer

By working systematically, spacing insertions and limiting session time per area

Answer

Systematic technique with appropriate spacing prevents cumulative tissue damage and allows skin to heal between treated follicles.
