Hair Removal Methods Professional Electrolysis
#1

Michael Bono was kind enough to consider my request for help for a newly acquired client of mine last summer. I saw this client in April of 2014. He had already had 72 hours of electrolysis with three other electrologists, prior to coming to me for treatment. I saw him in April 2014 and we were scheduled to meet again in June 2014, but I was not physically able to give him he time he needed (frozen shoulder hell), so Michael agreed to take over on this kid. THANK YOU SO MUCH, MICHAEL! This young man had such a wonderful experience with you and I’m so relieved that his treatments did not have to be delayed because of my problem.

This client was a warrior on a mission. He is very goal-orientated and his persistence has payed off. He kept an ambitious schedule. Here is a summary of his journey.

72 hours with three different electrologists before he saw me
12 hours 33 minutes with me in April 2014 / left side, arms shoulders cleared
27 hours with Michael in June 2014 - cleared all areas
17 hours with Michael October 2014 - cleared all areas
8 hours with Michael December 2014 - cleared all areas
5.5 hours with me January 2015 - cleared all areas
5 hours 42 minutes March 2015 - cleared all areas of mostly finer hairs

--------Total Time: 143 hours 45 minutes

Here are some pictures.

Left side of back - April 2014

(Had 72 hours worth of electrolysis performed on left side, arms and shoulders before seeing me.)

Shoulder area - April 2014

Upper middle back - April 2014 - pre-electrolysis

Below, right side of back was never treated when I first saw this client in April 2014. Michael had the privilege of clearing that area three times.

Here we are working away on his arm. These are normal skin side effects, by the way.

March 2015 -

These pictures are before treatment to clear the scattered hairs, post Michael Bono’s three clearances in June, October and December 2014.


These are the areas I treated after Michael did three clearings. Working on the midline and working to the right side. Looks great - not much work to do.


Close up of hair density :

Michael did blend electrolysis and I did PicoFlash thermolysis. Guess what? Both modalities permanently destroy hair follicles!

Michael you do very fast work and the condition of the skin looked great to me! I will add that Michael gets total credit for clearing the right side, as it was not touched before. All that was left for me to do after those three clearings was to pick up scattered hairs and any fine hairs that popped up.

I contacted the client and told him this information would be posted on HairTell in case he wanted to correct anything I wrote.

Nice to see Dee and thanks for your extremely kind remarks … let me say, “ditto back at you.”

If I’m not mistaken, this client said that the original 72-hours he completed did virtually nothing and, the former electrologists in his home State never got beyond his shoulders … then add in a couple other “mistakes” before he found you. Yes, 72-hours on the shoulders alone? “No Bueno!”

From what I originally saw on this guy, you can pretty much toss out those original 72-hours. When you do this, he comes in at the average time for such a big body case.

I have a couple photos too, but you have done a great job. The client will now go through a year-long period of thinking, “I wonder if this really worked?” You know, thinking that he will wake up some fine morning and “all the hair grew back.”

They won’t (grow back)! It worked … done deal … but DAMN what an ordeal! Purple heart? Congressional Medal of Honor? Maybe we could come up with something like the “Purple Follicle Award?” I mean seriously … what TORTURE!

Maybe one for you too, “The Golden Broken-Back Award?” Sometimes hearing people’s stories about what they had to endure makes me sick.

Lesson: take the time “you all” to find the right practitioner … “trust nobody on blind faith!” Even in the best circumstances, hair removal is no “walk in the park!”

72 hours just on shoulders with NO results? That’s around $6,000+ rewarded for incompetence, (not bad if you suck at your profession.) He should ask for his money back from whoever treated him. But on the bright-side, his nightmare is over thanks to you 2 pros!

Well, Im sure that one of the three original electrologists was not “plucking” him. His right flank looked pretty decent when I first saw him. He would have to explain his thoughts on those first 72 hours, if he wants to. Remember, i don’t have any before pictures of what he looked like before the first insertion was made back in his home state.
