Hi everyone,
I’m new here, and have some questions. I have recently finished having my underarms cleared by an electrologist; she started with an Apilus Platinum machine that reduced the hair over MANY treatments over several years. The hairs that she called “stubborn” were quickly dealt with by a multi-probe galvanic machine over the last few months. In truth I was very frustrated by how long the process took (4 years). I have now changed to a different electrologist who works exclusively with multi-probe galvanic to do my bikini line, and I have great confidence in her. I understand from browsing this forum that you can get better results than that with the Apilus Platinum machine, but I guess I don’t have access to someone with such skills.
I would love to have permanent hair removal on my legs - my leg hairs are coarse and blonde so I can’t do laser. While I appreciate that seeing a professional is the better option, and will continue to do so for my bikini line, there is no way I could afford it for my full legs (I have long legs with lots of hairs).
Since I understand from these forums that the galvanic machines require a little less skill than the blend machines, would it be conceivable to purchase a second hand galvanic machine to use on myself that I could maybe resell afterwards? I’m prepared to read books, and learn how to do it properly. I’ve had plenty of time watching the professionals work, I’m certain I could learn the insertion technique, and then it would just be a matter of knowing the correct settings.
Does anyone have any advice for me either way? I would really appreciate any and all input. Thank you so much
