ESF MEMBERSHIP

What are the benefits of being a member of the Electrolysis Society of Florida? When you sign up as a new ESF member (or renew your membership) in the 2024 year, you will receive discounted conference/webinar rates as well as a listing in the easily accessed, public directory. The meeting rate is significantly less for members than nonmembers and you will be kept abreast of any updated licensure information as well as the latest in electrolysis and laser techniques.

Being an ESF member brings many rewards and advantages:

  1. Our membership year runs from January 1st through December 31st. (Your dues will cover the current year.)

  2. All ESF Conferences/Webinars are offered at a discounted rate to members.

  3. We hold one(1) Continuing Education seminar per year (February), as well as at least four (4) Live Zoom Webinars.

  4. Business meetings to discuss & vote on Legislative and key issues.

  5. These seminars include a membership meeting on Friday evening and a full day of continuing education on Saturday(6-8 CEU's). These continuing education units (CEU’s) will be applicable for Florida state license renewal.

  6. We try to use national as well as state level speakers for quality programs.

  7. Attending ESF membership meetings will keep you informed of licensure and legislative issues. We have a legislative liaison present at every Electrolysis Council meeting.

  8. Your membership also allows us to retain our lobbyist in Tallahassee. He is keenly aware of our concerns in both electrolysis and laser, and works to keep us aware of any pending legislation regarding them.

  9. You will be assured placement in the online ESF Membership Directory on our website. The information you submit in your membership application will be what’s added to the website Directory: www.hairremovalflorida.com.
