The International Commission
for Hair Removal Certification (ICHRC) has the distinction of presenting valid
competency-based certification examinations. Testing is provided to enhance the
professional growth of members and the Society and all allied health practitioners;
including physicians, electrologists, nurses and others authorized to practice
in the jurisdiction where they reside. Receive your certification to assure the
public that you have the knowledge and skill to provide the safest and most effective
hair removal service available. Upon successfully completing the examination,
a certificate of competency, suitable for framing, is issued bearing the coveted
seal of the commission.
We offer four certifications. For electrologists, there is the "Certified Clinical Electrologist" (CCE), for those using the needle modality. Then the next certification, to which the CCE is a prerequisite, is the "Certified Medical Electrologist" (CME). The CME certification tests for advanced knowledge and skill in needle modalities as well as laser and light-based hair removal modalities. The CME certification is required in the State of Florida for electrologists wishing to perform laser and light-based hair removal services. Other states are currently considering following Florida by requiring this certification for electrologists.
The two newer certifications are the Certified Laser Hair Removal Professional (CLHRP), and the Certified Pulse Light Hair Removal Professional (CPLHRP), both designed for allied health practitioners; including physicians, nurses, electrologists and others authorized in the jurisdiction where they reside who practice either laser or light-based hair removal and may not personally practice needle hair removal modalities. |
