Laser... Worth Trying!

     I can honestly say, I used to wax my entire body at least once a month and most of the time, it hurt so much and could get messy! I think I can speak for most women out there that I hate any kind of body hair!

     For the longest while, I kept hearing about laser air removal and being an esthetician, I was always skeptical about the idea of laser and it's potential harm on the body. I always wondered how any kind of technology could get rid of unwanted hair permanently without causing any damaging to the body but being as curious as I was, I had to try it out. After doing years of procrastinating, researching the best locations through testimonials and credibility, I decided to go to Evropa Laser Clinic.

    When I went in for the treatment, I must admit, I was scared and nervous about how painful this might be but I found the receptionist and technician to be EXTREMELY knowledgeable and made me feel very comfortable. I needed this considering the location I had to decide was quite intimate. As for the pain, I'm not going to lie and say it wasn't painful but there were definitely areas that were a little more sensitive than others. It feels like a bunch of tiny pin pricks. Mind you, there were a lot of areas where I couldn't feel a thing! All I can say though is that all the discomfort of the actual procedure was worth the results!

    After one treatment, the hair fell out and hardly any even grew back! The hair that did grow back after one treat was extremely thin and sparse. Apparently, the amount of treatments you need to permanently get rid of the hair is between 6-8 treatments depending on the type of hair and your skin type. I am at 4 treatments and can say NOTHING has grown back yet. I definitely recommend laser to ANYONE that waxes regularly and is looking for long term results. It's a little pricey but in the end, it saves you a lot of time, pain and money. My only recommendation is, do your research before you actually do it! Evropa is a great clinic and I would love to refer anyone interested. The pricing there is very reasonable as well.
