Ballet Tapered B Medium Gold Needle Probes (TBMG)

Ballet Tapered B Diameter Medium Taper Gold (TBMG) Needles

Package of 50 needles

The Ballet tapered gold needle is a tapered needle based on Hinkel and St. Pierre’s classic blend needle and is also plated with nickel-free, 24 karat gold. It has a very skinny shank, and a strongly tapered shaft. Micro-polishing is used to achieve Ballet’s unique point. Current intensity can be lowered and insertions are smooth, precise and comfortable.

Gold has many acknowledged medical uses from acupuncture needles to ear piercing posts, and its benefits are clear in electrolysis. Redness and swelling are reduced and the skin rapidly returns to normal after even the most delicate treatments, particularly red vein and skin tag work. Treatment recommendation: The 24kt gold needle responds to the needs of clients who suffer from allergies and sensitive skin and whose skin reacts negatively to standard stainless steel probes.

Gold Needle Sizes available:   TB Medium GOLD: Medium Diameter, Medium Length of Taper

Sizing: If you have used the traditional Hinkel-style needles in the past, you will be familiar with our sizing. There is no exact correlation to the sizing of F-shank and K-shank Ballet needles. A TA Small, for example, is for shallow, fine hairs. A TB Small is somewhat comparable to an F3 or K3. The TC Small and TC Medium should be reserved for the deepest insertions. Remember, the length of the needle is the same for all needles, only the length of the taper changes between “A”, “B” and “C” needles.

Note: You will need a needle holder specifically designed to fit a tapered needle. If you have been using the “F” Shank Ballet or any 2-piece needle, then you will not be able to use the “T” shank Ballet needles unless you purchase a different needle holder.
