Electrolysis By Emily – Properly Sanitized and Sterilized!
When selecting an electrologist, ensuring safety and hygiene standards are met is crucial for your health and peace of mind. In New York State, regulations around electrolysis sanitation and sterilization are not as stringent as expected in other health and beauty fields. This lack of regulation underscores the importance of asking pertinent questions to protect yourself during electrolysis treatments.
Electrolysis Probes and Needles
During electrolysis, each client should have a brand-new, sterilized probe used exclusively for their treatment. Electrologists legally have the option to reuse probes across multiple clients. This practice poses risks as the probe comes into contact with the dermal papilla, the hair’s blood supply, as well as skin bacteria and germs. Reusing probes can lead to a range of health issues from minor irritations to potentially serious infections. Always inquire if your electrologist uses a new sterile probe for each session and disposes of it properly.
Electrolysis Tweezers and Caps
Similarly, tweezers and caps used during electrolysis treatments should be sterilized or disposed of after each use. Caps protect clients from discomfort during treatment and should be clean and sterile for each client. Reusing these tools without proper sterilization can lead to unnecessary risks. Ensure your electrologist uses sanitary practices for all instruments, especially when treating different parts of the body in the same session.
Electrolysis at Limoges Electrolysis – Ensuring FDA-Approved Standards
At Limoges Electrolysis in New York City, we prioritize your safety by adhering to rigorous FDA-approved sterilization and sanitation protocols. Each treatment session utilizes a new sterile probe that is disposed of in a medical waste container immediately afterward. For additional safety, we employ a medical-grade autoclave registered with the FDA, using dry heat to sterilize tweezers and caps thoroughly. This method exceeds basic sanitation practices commonly seen elsewhere in the industry.
Unlike many electrologists in the area, we invest in FDA-approved equipment and ensure our office and equipment are meticulously cleaned and sanitized daily. Disposable gloves and masks are standard for every treatment, further reducing any risk of cross-contamination.
