This unit provides the skills and knowledge required to safely and effectively remove unwanted hair from the face and body using electrolysis.

Students develop a strong understanding of hair biology, electrical currents, and treatment planning, enabling them to design and deliver tailored electrolysis programs based on individual client needs. As electrolysis achieves results over time, learners are trained to plan and manage a series of treatments to support optimal outcomes.

This unit is designed for beauty therapists working in professional beauty and hair-removal clinics. Practitioners are required to exercise sound judgement when planning treatments, maintain client confidentiality, and demonstrate professional communication and consultation skills throughout the client journey.

All skills and knowledge are delivered and assessed in line with relevant Commonwealth and State or Territory legislation, Australian Standards, and industry codes of practice, ensuring graduates are work-ready and compliant within a clinical environment.
