Hello Ekade. No, this consists of inserting the probe by one of the sides of the hair, apply current, remove the probe, and re-enter on the other side of the hair, then apply current again.
With Synchro you’re covering the entire length of the follicle because this is a string of short shots.
Don’t forget that in Electrolysis 2+ 2 is not the same as 4, but 5 or 6.
Thank you for your reply Josefa, but how Synchro can cover the entire length of the follicle if insulated probe is used? Doesn’t insulation concentrate Synchro’s string of short shots only in the lower part of the follicle?
With Synchro thermolysis, a special technique must be used. ( my iPad auto-corrected to say “sexual” technique. I’m laughing right now, pays to proof-read).
When performing Synchro, there are about 100 pulses coming off the tip of the probe in less than a second. So, one needs to move the probe in the follicle, all the while when the current is coming off the tip of the probe. Happens very fast, but the entire follicle is treated and the hair slide out beautifully. I salute the engineers at Dectro for this feat of electrolysis magic.
Dee, thank you for your reply! But is it really feasible to move the probe if time set 0.1 or 0.2 sec.?
No. Not many electrologists would set the auto sensor this low when doing Synchro. Thats not enough time to reach the bottom of the follicle. I know I wouldn’t go this low and I can fly when I get in my zen.
I am sorry for misunderstand, I did not mean auto sensor,
I meant if the current is on for 0.1 or 0.2 sec, is it really feasible to move the probe?
Hi Mike. For me, your superior Kelly Tip is just as superior as the .002 for the finest wispy hairs. Either way, they glide in easily. Since I am already a 2-piece user, the added rigidity where the shank meets the probe and the finer tip is not having an impact on my technique or settings or tissue reaction.
So, for me, I would buy either and use them for the same situations. I am using pico chin/upperlip #2 default settings.
The only thing I still want to examine depth of insertion. I suspect that the Kelly tip might have a slight advantage over the standard when there is barely any depth of insertion required.
Hello Arlene ( boy it sure is good to see you on your feet, takes more than a lil hurricane to hold you down 
)
Yes we found that alterations to my father’s origonal taper were counterproductive, the standard .002" profile will remain the same. The shorter “Kelly” exposed tip is showing amazing results on these very fine, shallow hairs. They should reach the shelves by next week, they are in production now.
We are taking this concept up to the .003" short next…
I can’t wait to use a “Kelly Tip” on a perianal area. I bet it makes a positive difference.
What would be your diameter of choice for that job James ?
That is one of those things that depends on the person you are working on. Some (most?) people are going to be somewhere between a size 2 and size 3 on that, while the gentleman in the picture Josefa posted in the mature section would be a 4 or 5.
We’re in the process of testing some 3’s now. You got some of the 4.5 prototypes a while back didn’t you ? Those carry a .045" long tip. The Kelly tip on the 2 is about a 30% reduction. I’m wondering if 30% will be enough for a 5. We tried 4 different lengths to settle on the .020" length for the 2. I’m thinking you just pointed out the perfect case to find the Kelly length for the 4 and 5.
You insert quickly and bring the probe back quickly before the the last beep sounds. It takes practice.
see what happens when we start brainstorming… EVERYONE WINS!!! clients, electrologist next cold fusion 
I owe an apology to Sahar and Christine. In the flurry of activity testing the Kelly .002’s we seem to have forgotten them…
Both you ladies will recieve a dozen in your mail shortly, they left yesterday.
The “Kelly tip” .002" IBPs are now in full production. Instantron should get the first shipment tomorrow.
Christine ? Sahar ? You should have recieved them by now. Have you had a chance to try the new Kelly tips yet ?
The Kelly Tips are very nice. In the past, I used a #1 by another manufacturer. Yes, #1’s are made however it slowed me down a little since the #1’s are so fragile. With your Kelly tip, I am able to pick up some speed. They slide in easily yet are hearty - sturdy. Since I can work more quickly, the client is happy.
I too find the Kelly Tips to be very sturdy and efficient. I have re-visited the Laurier probe and have found them to be of high quality design.
Forgive my ignorance but what is a Kelly tip?
I have only just started to try out Laurier probes.

The Kelly tips are a new design in which the free tip exposed is reduced in order to reduce damage to the skin surface. They are indicated in the treatment of vellus (most in telogen phase) which have a very shallow root.
