An electrologist is a person who has gone through special training to perform the electrolysis procedure. Research different electrologists in your area and make a list of the ones you think are most qualified. Try to find at least 3-4 electrologists to start with.  Look for electrologists with at least 5 years of experience in the field, with positive reviews on their business page and social media and a professional-looking website. Many cosmetic surgeons and dermatologists offer electrolysis in their offices, so you might want to start by searching for these. Ask your family and friends for recommendations. Read online reviews to get a good idea of an electrologist's previous work. In many states, electrologists must be licensed or certified in order to practice. If you live in a state with these requirements, make sure that the electrologist's license is on display when you visit the office. If your state doesn't require licensure, choose an electrologist who has obtained certification from an accredited electrology school.  Even if your electrologist is licensed, check to see if they are registered with a professional organization, such as the American Electrology Association (AEA) in the U.S. This indicates a commitment to ongoing education in their field. Do not undergo a procedure from someone who is not certified. Write down any questions you have before your consultations and make sure you feel that they have been answered fully. Be sure to ask whether the electrologist uses needle electrolysis, as this is the only kind approved by the FDA and American Medical Association (AMA).  Some of the questions you might ask could include the length of each session, how many sessions the electrologist estimates you will need, and the cost of each session. You may also want to ask about how the procedure will feel and how long the clinic has been in business.  Make sure you talk to the electrologist about the results you hope to achieve. Show them where unwanted hair on your face is located, as this might affect the final results. Since electrolysis leaves your skin vulnerable to infection, ask the electrologist what procedures the clinic practices to protect its patients. Do they wear gloves? Do they use proper sterilization procedures, such as wiping down all equipment with sanitizer or using individual needles for each client? Look around while you're in the office. Ask yourself if the office and exam rooms seem neat and clean. Do the technicians and staff seem to be practicing sanitary methods? Check to see if the technician washes their hands before examining your skin. Most importantly, ask yourself if you feel comfortable. If the answer is no, keep looking.

One-sentence summary -- Search online to find electrologists in your area. Check the credentials of the electrologists on your list. Attend several consultations before you make a decision. Ask about sanitary procedures.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: A variety of medications are available to treat neuropathy. Your doctor will focus on managing the medical disorder that's causing your neuropathy which will reduce symptoms and improve the nerve function in your feet. Your doctor may prescribe:  Amitriptyline: This medication, originally used as an antidepressant, effectively treats neuropathic pain. You'll be started on the lowest dose, 25 mg a day. You can gradually increase the dosage to 150 mg per day. Always take the medication before going to bed. This drug should not be prescribed if you have a history of suicide risk.  Pregabalin: This sedative is usually prescribed for pain associated with peripheral neuropathy caused by diabetes. You will start with the lowest possible dose, and increase it as your doctor suggests. The maximum dosage is 50 to 100 mg, taken three times per day by mouth. Maximum dosing may be increased over time to 600mg/day, but dosage over this amount isn't effective.  Duloxetine: This medication is usually prescribed for pain associated with neuropathic pain caused by diabetes. The dosage starts at 60 mg orally. The dosage can be doubled and your doctor will review the treatment after two months. While you can double the dosage, most doses over 60 mg a day are rarely more effective and may actually cause other problems.  Combination therapies: Your doctor may recommend combining several medications such as TCA, venlafaxine, or tramadol. These can provide better results for neuropathy than any single medication alone. Your doctor may prescribe long-acting opiates to treat the pain of your neuropathy. This is usually determined on an individual basis, because side effects include dependence (addiction), tolerance (they become less effective over time), and headaches. Immunosuppressive agents such as cyclophosphamide may also be prescribed to treat a chronic type of neuropathy (dysimmune neuropathy) that may be resistant to other treatments. Depending on the cause of your neuropathy, your doctor may recommend a decompressive surgery. This will release pressure from entrapped nerves which will let them function correctly. Decompressive surgery is often done for carpal tunnel syndrome. But, certain types of hereditary neuropathy that cause issues in the foot and ankle can also benefit from decompressive surgery. Amyloid peripheral neuropathy may be treated by a liver transplant, since this type of neuropathy is caused by metabolic liver problems.

SUMMARY:
Take medications prescribed by your doctor. Use opiates as prescribed. Talk with your doctor about surgery.
