When beginning treatment on a new patron, what is the most prudent approach?

High intensity
Moderate intensity
Low intensity
Extreme intensity

The correct answer is: Moderate intensity

The most prudent approach when beginning treatment on a new patron is to utilize a moderate intensity. Starting with a moderate intensity allows the professional to assess the individual’s skin sensitivity and response to the treatment without overwhelming them. It offers a balanced approach that takes into account the varying skin types and tolerance levels that different patrons may have. Beginning at this level allows the practitioner to observe how the patron's skin reacts and adjust future treatment intensities accordingly. This strategy minimizes the risk of adverse reactions, discomfort, or injury, making it a safer choice. It also builds trust and comfort between the practitioner and the patron, which is crucial for establishing a successful treatment plan. In contrast, using a high or extreme intensity can lead to increased discomfort, potential damage to the skin, and may deter the patron from continuing their treatments. Starting low also prevents unnecessary complications and allows for a more gradual adaptation to the electrolysis process.
