58 YO Male Bro-zillian Laser Hair Removal - Brentwood, TN

I was commenting on others and was encouraged to write my own experience, so here goes... I've been shaving and waxing and epilady-ing body hair for a long time. I swim and nude suntan as much as I can, so removing hair on my chest, legs, arms, butt, and pubic areas come and go as I get the motivation. All are a hassle, so I finally decided to do something more permanent... maybe feeling old and going thru a midlife crisis... I don't know. I'll transfer from another thread more of my experience. My second session is next week. I may get up the courage to post a picture... jury is still out on that.

Carefully cropped, I guess I don't mind too much sharing photos with the group. Do your research. Laser hair is a far cry from a tummy tuck, but if you are in the wrong hands, you can still permanently damage your skin. Some Bro-zillion laser hair removal deals do include the peritoneal/anal area...mine did...and that is a real personal place, so be sure you are OK with that. If the price includes that and you aren't comfortable with that, you might ask for some reduction, but I wouldn't count on it, so you might as well get the full deal. My concern to ask about when I go for my second round of treatment is the hair follicle bumps and whether there is still a hair there or not. Some information I read said I would see the hair shafts fall out or work their way out and I had very few of them do that. While my technician is very professional, she was not as effective around the base of the shaft as the open spaces of the pubic mound above it. I hope to feel comfortable enough with her to show her...you have to be comfortable with your body and point things out. The tech doesn't know what grew and what didn't. I imagine I'll need to hold the shaft and hold the scrotum flatter so she can get a better pass at the skin. My deal included the hair up to the belly button...affectionately called the "happy trails"...you can't make this stuff up...LOL! But I've tanned my stomach too much and she was afraid to do that with the darker skin. Since I tan nude and with tan-thru suits, it's been killing me to keep the sun off parts to laser, so be prepared for that. My tech told me the main reason she hadn't had laser hair removal herself was because she liked to tan too much...

My treatment is beltline and 1-inch past the underwear line on the leg front and butt crack and scrotum and peritoneal area (if that description makes sense) some deals do more or less, some with Groupons have to pay extra. I was worried about what to wear and pain, but after the first treatment, I wasn't red or sore afterwards, but the sting during was intense. I wore boxers, but it wouldn't have mattered for my after care, but some have described a painful next couple of days and taking Tylenol before or using numbing cream...I guess it depends on your skin, laser, skill of the tech, and power setting...so we'll see how repeatable she is the next time! Oh, if you like you tech and are comfortable with them, see if you can keep the same person for the follow up treatments. A good comfort level can make a difference and if the results were good, then that should be repeatable.
