Laser hair removal tech is an electrologist board certified profesional specializing in laser hair removal procedures commonly performed in laser center, medical spa or ambulatory health care setting.

The medical electrolysis procedure is the only recognized method for permanent hair removal. It is the only method approved by the FDA. Electrolysis involves the application of electricity through a sterile probe (a very fine needle) to cause a chemical or thermal reaction to destroy the hair follicle.
Although most people prefer to use of laser for permanent hair reduction, some parts of the body cannot be laser treated and some hair types cannot be laser treated either, such as gray or blonde hair that requires the use of electrolysis for permanent removal.
