When it comes to electrolysis machines, age is not as much as a factor as one might think. These things last better than stereo equipment. Think of the last time a RADIO you owned stopped working. How old was it? How much would it have taken to fix it as good as new, even then?
One of the reasons electrolysis practitioners don’t upgrade their equipment is because the stuff they are using doesn’t break.
This is a good unit that can you can grow with. You should start out with galvanic only, until you get the hang of insertions, then progress into doing blend treatments in order to cut down the time per hair, and then, when you are really good at that, progress to thermolysis for the fastest removal time. Keep in mind that thermolysis will uncover any weakness in your insertion technique, as a poor insertion will cause the thermolysis to give less than satisfactory results, or you will require higher treatment energies to effect the same hair removal that a person doing better insertions would need to use. This will translate to a difference in the comfort in the treatment energy.
Get yourself a copy of Mike Bono’s book The Blend: Real World Electrology. It is the best of the electrolysis texts for taking someone from knowing nothing, to being able to do this well enough to have permanent hair removal without scars. No matter where you plan on working, start out on your legs, to get good at the insertions. It is also best of you are trading work with someone esle, so that you are working on the other person, and the other person is working on you. It is just not the optimum situation to be inserting backwards on yourself.
