Nice work, Sahar! Congrats with embedding photo’s, too!
What modality did you use? Probe? How many hours are we looking at? How many sessions? Sorry for the first degree,but I am a curious George.
Wow, that is awesome! U must be thrilled with the results! Thanks for sharing!
Well done Sahar, absolutely perfect.
BRAVO Sahar!!!
Thank you!!! It is such a compliment when colleagues that have your level of experience are complimenting my work. Thankyou very much.
What modality did you use?
Synchro - This is my favourite modality. I love using this on all types of hair, from terminal hairs that have been tweezed for many years also use it on those shallow dry telogen hairs.The only time i do not use this modality is on real sensitive areas like lips,eyebrows e.t.c.
Probe?
Laurier F3
How many hours are we looking at?
This client had Laser hair removal done before electrolysis and had induced growth on the forearm.
First clearance each arm 7.5hrs - 8hrs
This was my first job I worked on with my Apilus. Speed was still very slow, accuracy was what I focused on. I had to get used to insertion e.t.c it was a whole new thing to learn a lot diferent to my old modality multi galvanic. I am very confident I could achieve a faster clearance nowdays.
Second clearance 4.5hrs
Third clearance 1hr 40min
Final Clearance 20min

I am wondering about Synchro, I’ve already asked Josefa.
Dectro advices to move the probe while using Synchro. Do you move the probe using Synchro as Dectro advices?
Josefa said she does not.
Enjoyed seeing your work and what a jump in modalities - great work!
Ekade,
To answer your last question, I do move the probe when performing Synchro. Here are my variations of movement:
I insert to the bottom ( where the moisture is) and between the first and second beep, I am moving my probe upward. The current is active in that time interval between the first and second beeps,so you really have to focus on that and watch the skin.
Sometimes I start at the top and move the probe down between the first and second beeps.
Sometimes I go low to the bottom and jiggle the probe up and down in the lower 2/3rds of the follicle, really fast, while the current is active. The hair slides nicely and completely.
You can develop the technique that works best for getting this strong hairs out. You are correct Sahar - Synchro works for all hair structures, but hands down it is highly useful for those straight, very coarse, very deep anagen hairs that we frequently encounter on the human beard, where the root sheaths extend from the bottom of the follicle to very close to the top of the follicle.
The Dectro electrologists call this thermolysis modality the machine gun of electrolysis and they could not have described it any better than that. I latch onto that terminology, too, but sometimes I call it the “you have got to be kidding me, this is too good to be true - WOW!” modality. My bearded ladies get cleared and completed in less time when I use Synchro. It is that complete and efficient as a modality.
If I am using Synchro for those tiny grains of salt hairs, I do not need to move the probe. They pop out easily.
I have found that keeping the levels below 4 and increasing the timing gives comfort to the client. Moving the probe increases the comfort, as well, for hairs that need more energy. Lastly, using the Laurier probe is the icing on the cupcake. It is a lovely accessory to a fantastic modality.
Sahar,
Thanks for the details. Going slower is no problem because we are all about prioritizing good insertions as you know. I like to be speedy, but there are times when I have to slow it down so as not to compromise the insertion.
