Hi
I was sent here by someone telling me that I should watch out for the equipment and technique used by th electrologist I am plannign to go. Up to now I have tried 3 persons doing this, one was insisting on laser, the other left me with haemmorages and I felt pain when she inserted the needle and the third one I am with now seems to be skilled, not poking my skin, working fast, only leaving some red spots. However she does not use a surgical microscope as I was told she should (she uses glasses with a magnifying thingy attached to them) and she uses AC current. Everyone I asked uses the same quipment or even less advanced ones, and no one does DC current. I also am in contact with some people in a facebook group who talk about hair removal but they seem to have electrologists using the same options and everyone says it is a lot of pain. I was told if electro is done properly and with surcigal microscope and modern machines it is not painful.
So I was windering what is true, what should I look for in terms of equipment and technique and how would I find an electrologist that is within reach (maybe here in Bavaria) who can do this best?
I have some patches of quite dense hair that has to be removed and I am a bit scared now about too much pain and about scars left over.
The first session at the electrologist I tried now and who was rather ok in my eyes will be next week. She is a member of http://www.dvee.de/ - I dont know if this means a lot.
I hope you can give me some hints. It will be a bit hard to change electrologist now, because I managed to get it health insurance covered , but only at that place, so changing away would only make sense if it really is an improvement that is really worth a lot.
Thanks
Bye
P.S.: The thing she uses looks a little bit like this http://www.wittex-family.de/out/pictures/z2/lupenbrillenah_z2.jpg - but I think it has a stronger magnification
