Lorenzo Kunze, M.E.
Aesthetic and Medical Laser Specialist and Educator
Aesthetic and Medical Electrologist
Lorenzo Kunze was one of the first
in the world to fire a laser for aesthetic purposes. He and his competitor
Wallace (Wally) Roberts
were the first two electrologists (early 1990's) that discovered that lasers
could be used for permanent hair removal. Now lasers are used for anti-aging,
hair, veins, wrinkles, toe fungus, cellulite and tattoo removal. Wally has since
passed away, but his spirit is alive in Lorenzo's teachings and presentations.
After 40 years in the aesthetic and medical education
business, Lorenzo has decided to slow down and work as a laser mentor (laser
life coach) for professionals in the aesthetic and medical business. He will be
assisting the novice to the seasoned professional in:
-
consulting with
professionals in all aspects of their laser business
-
consulting with the beginner in relationship
to working in the laser environment
-
additional laser instruction to any
aesthetic or medical laser professional
-
laser business questions (starting,
expanding, building or selling your laser business)
assisting in developing protocols,
applications and/or procedures
laser (rental, leasing or purchasing)
equipment

laser manufactures, colleagues and patients.

Lorenzo's Story
-
"My name is
Lorenzo Kunze
and I have been part of the college my entire life. I started at the
Electrology Laboratory and Training Center in April of 1971, in Denver Colorado.
Since then I have been a part of over 30 clinics and 3 colleges, either as an
owner or founder.
The picture to the right is
of me
shortly after I was adopted at the age of 5. My mother and father where both in
the medical / aesthetic field as electrologists. You can see in the picture my
mother's sign for permanent hair removal on unwanted hair.
I saw at a early age
the emotional aspect of helping people and how helping them look better, made
them feel better about
themselves. It changed my life forever and I knew what I wanted to do the rest of
my life.
I always tell my students that by being
adopted I not only acquired a family, but I obtained my life long profession.
I hope that you will have faith in me and
allow me to assist you in your aesthetic and medical laser education" - Lorenzo
Lorenzo Kunze started working
at the Electrology Laboratory and Training Center in 1971. He has been either an
owner or director of over 30 clinics and was the founder of the worlds first aesthetic/medical laser college.
Lorenzo has been likened to a cactus...surviving where most cannot. Yes, prickly at
times, beautiful at moments. Solid as a rock, soft as clay...but, strong with
heart and soul.
Lorenzo was adopted at the age of 5 years old by Walter and Helen Kunze in
Denver Colorado.

to read about the 100
years of hair removal history
with Lorenzo's family. His adopted parents paid a grand total of $12.50 (court
cost) for Lorenzo as he was classified as dyslectic and a hard to place child in the mid
1950's. He had lived in 5 different foster care homes, an American Indian
reservation and an orphanage before being adopted.
Lorenzo is a true survivor and an extreme optimist. He feels very fortunate to
have been adopted not just into a family...but into a profession. Helen
and Walter were both in the permanent hair removal business. Since 1948
his parents Walter and Helen Kunze started an electrolysis business (for 50
years) in their home. His mom Helen had roots in the electrology profession since 1890,
as her uncles were pioneers in the electrolysis industry.
Having the luxury of being adopted is the reason that Lorenzo has enjoyed the
many children that he and his wife Martha have mentored, educated and become legal guardianship to
over the years. He actively supports adoption and foster care agencies that
assist orphaned and abandoned children.
Lorenzo is "paying it back" or "paying it forward" to what was once given to him and he is loving every minute of
it. Lorenzo believes that children today need role models, an example and/or a
friend that will guide them through that winding and narrow path...called life.
