Electro-Epilation and Red Vein Elimination Training
The Only Truly Permanent Solution — and the Skills to Deliver It With Confidence
Electro-epilation (electrolysis) is the only method of hair removal that is genuinely, clinically permanent. Not “long-term.” Not “semi-permanent.” Permanent. And when it’s performed well, it’s one of the most precise and satisfying treatments you can offer a client. I’ve been practising electrolysis since 1987. I’ve seen trends come and go, watched laser dominate the market — and I’ve watched clients come back to electrolysis when nothing else worked. Grey hair. Red hair. Hormonally driven growth that sometimes laser simply can’t touch. Electrolysis handles all of it.
This training programme is what I wish had existed when I was starting out — built around real clinical understanding, not just technique. You’ll leave knowing not just how to perform electrolysis, but why it works. That’s the difference between a therapist who’s been shown a skill and one who genuinely owns it.
Upcoming Practical Workshop Dates
Our practical workshops are held in small groups to ensure every student receives plenty of individual guidance and hands-on experience. Complete your online learning before attending your practical workshop, allowing you to arrive confident and ready to build your skills.
Upcoming workshop locations and dates:
- Wellington – 2nd – 3rd November 2026
- Auckland – 9th – 10th November 2026
Places are limited to maintain a high trainer-to-student ratio. We recommend securing your place early so you can begin your online learning and be well prepared before your practical training.
You won’t receive your qualification until those assessments are done — but that’s exactly what this programme prepares you for. By the time you finish, you won’t be wondering if you’re ready. You will be.
What You’ll Learn
- Hair growth cycles and follicular anatomy
- Thermolysis, Galvanic and The blend techniques — and when to use each
- Energy delivery and how tissue responds
- Accurate probe insertion and depth control
- Treatment planning for hormonally driven and laser-resistant hair
- Managing client expectations and long-term outcomes
- Red vein reduction using advanced thermolysis techniques
- Infection control and blood-borne pathogen protocols
- Safe machine settings and frequency selection
Why Electrolysis Is Having a Moment Right Now
Laser has its place. But awareness of its limitations is growing — and clients are asking questions. Grey hair. Hormonal regrowth. Skin tones that aren’t well served by laser. These clients exist in every clinic, and right now, most practitioners don’t have an answer for them.
Electrolysis is that answer. Adding it to your service menu isn’t just a skills upgrade — it’s a commercial decision that opens your practice to clients no one else in your area can properly help.
This training is designed to get you there with real confidence.
Assessment & Your Certification
This programme is properly assessed — because a certificate should mean something.
To earn your Advanced Aesthetic Training Certificate in Electrolysis, you’ll complete:
- A final theory examination
- A practical assessment demonstrating technical proficiency
- Treatment planning and safety understanding

Where You’ll Be at the End of This
At the successful completion of both your theory and practical requirements you’ll be able to take clients. Confidently. With the clinical knowledge to back every decision you make in the treatment room.
Electro-Epilation rewards precision, patience and genuine understanding. When those things come together, it is one of the most powerful — and commercially sustainable — treatments you can offer. Clients who find a good electrologist stay for life.
That’s what this training is designed to give you.
