I literally just found it online so wanted to share it in case anyone’s searching in Belgium, give it a go maybe. It’s on Avenue Louise. Electrolysis is tough to find in Bxl!

Called him and he performs thermolysis.
He will teach on a galvanic machine. He said he used to use galvanic, but the machines were no longer for sale in Belgium.
Thermolysis is fine, perfect and about 99% of all electrologists use thermolysis! I do! We all do!
Belgium often had odd restrictions (rules) that I didn’t understand — nobody did (when I lived in Holland).
At one point they would not allow ANY “needle electrolysis” at all … so the estheticians used electric tweezers (total fraud).
Maybe it’s the French influence? Tee Hee! “Oh, I’m in trouble now!”
Hi Michael,
I recently saw in the official website of the Belgium Senat that electrolysis could be performed by “estheticians” and not only by physicians, since “electrolysis hair removal” is not considered as a medical procedure.
I have to find again the link, I will post it on this thread as soon as possible.
I hope that Belgium is not under the influence of the “French crazy law” about electrolysis.
Oh, that’s excellent news Adrien!
Laws can, as we say, “be an ass!”
We STILL have the law in California that any “beauty specialist cannot puncture the skin at all … unless you are an electrologist.”
The rationale has been this: "the electrolysis needle does not puncture the skin but is inserted into the follicle !
STUPID! Each and every electrolysis needle insertion punctures the skin … in most cases the entire skin and well into the subdermis.
Laws and lawyers endlessly parse words and phrases and end up creating more confusion.
The official ruling about the electronic tweezers (when we were fighting them) was this:
"Since an ‘electrologist’ is defined as using a NEEDLE, an electrologist is therefore not allowed to use the electronic tweezer … HOWEVER, EVERYBODY ELSE CAN! Untrained hairdressers were allowed to use the electric tweezers, but electrologists were NOT!
And, the MONEY started flowing!
Actually I didn’t find -so far- the link I was talking about. However I found 2 others links.

Here, in the official page of the Belgium Senat, it is said (in 2010) the law is not specific on the matter of electrolysis.
This legal vacuum seems interesting for some no-physicians who would like to practice electolysis in Belgium.
HOWEVER, I think you are right Michael (Let me say unfortunalty), we can feel the “French infuence” in Belgium.

In this second link (The official Register of Physicians of Belgium) it is said that electrolysis is “a medical procedure”.
This Concil use a report of the Royal Medical Academy of 1975 (published in the 31 January 1976) :
"L’épilation par électrolyse touche à l’intégrité des tissus et peut éventuellement produire des séquelles, de sorte qu’elle doit être considérée comme un acte médical.
L’épilation peut être pratiquée par un paramédical (infirmière ou physiothérapeute). La présence du médecin lors de la réalisation de l’acte n’est pas exigée mais la prescription de l’acte doit être faite par un médecin."
Sadly, it seems that we can not perform electrolysis in Belgium…
However, I don’t know if the report of the Royal Medical Academy makes authority as a law. (It seems there is still a legal vacuum).
For the very life of me, I will NEVER understand why any government would interfere with or prohibit one person from removing hair from another person. A medical procedure? I would ask the government powers elite, how is it that non-medical women and men in the USA, UK, Spain, Canada, etc. have thriving, tax paying businesses that successfully serve hairy people and Belgium can’t? What is different about Belgium and France? The answer is - “Nothing or in Mike Bono language, " Nuttin!”.
I couldn’t agree with you more Dee Fahey. The situation in both France and Belgium is a non-sense.
