PART THREE
Hair And Skin Condition
Evaluation of the hair and skin condition is of paramount importance. Today's electrologist must record all information and perform a visual observation. We live in an age when we must legally protect our own interests, health and professional standing by careful scrutiny of each patient's skin condition.
Electrologist’s comments. Electrologist’s comments are an excellent way of recording a patient's overall reaction to treatments as well as documenting emotional and nervous disorders and characteristics. Electrologists that work in a cooperative endeavor can be informed about a patient's personal preferences and likes and dislikes prior to beginning treatment.
Diet and stress. Often patients do not consider diet and its relationship to a hair problem. With the exception of organic beef and poultry and some organic pork and raw animal flesh, all meats contain hormones, antibiotics, and steroids. When people who have a low tolerance for them ingest these chemicals, it may cause imbalances in their bodies, which will create noticeable deposits on the skin and hair follicles.
These hormones, steroids, antibiotics and preservatives such as red dye can cause side effects such as unwanted hair growth through the stimulation of the human endocrine system. Patients who have a borderline endocrine disorder are most prone to react adversely to these substances. Over a period of time, these chemicals accumulate in the body and can trigger hormonal imbalance and other side effects, causing unwanted hair growth, a male secondary sex characteristic of hormones and steroids.
You can see how important diet is. It is most important to realize that these chemicals can make an already diagnosed endocrine disorder much worse. If the intake of certain foods is reduced it can improve the endocrine condition. The most noticeable positive effects will be improved well-being and improved electrolysis results with the reduction of the amount of hair. The result is finer instead of coarser hair, and increased skin softness and suppleness is noticeable. Also, self-confidence is boosted, which creates an improved social life.
Weight loss and weight gain is evident in cases of hypothyroidism. Diet plays a key role in our lives. It is difficult to believe that most doctors overlook the dietary habits of their patients, and how much of a factor they can be in the patient's health care. Medications would not improve their condition, and many do not believe in a follow-up on these types of tests when the results are in the normal range.
Stress. Everyone experiences stress and is adversely impacted in different ways. High blood pressure, migraine headaches, muscle pains and spasms, ulcers, but most relevant, the obvious hair problem. "No," the patient explains, "No one else in the family has a hair problem. Why me?" If you have done your case history correctly and questioned the patient regarding diet, endocrine, heredity, and medications, you can deduce the reasons. Look for obvious signs of stress such as impatience, nervousness, fidgeting, headaches, family and work pressures, and so on.
