“Laser hair removal”

Laser hair removal: NOT worth it

Cost: $1,400
Pain: Severe
Laser hair removal satisfaction: Poor1 Star Rating: Poor
I do not recommend my Laser hair removal provider: Name not provided
Why: rushed service and bad result

Alexandrite Laser

- no doctor or nurse present.

- dont go just for the cheapest offer

- its a field with no cetification required!

- make sure test patches are done. all arrears of the body dont react the same.

- always apply aloe vera and ice pack.

- if you feel more than a pin prick of pain and they tell you its normal then dont be afraid to tell them to stop and reduce the power level.

Lower back. Btw, this was an early picture and things got darker and worse the day after.

Wow... which treatment were you on (1st, 2nd, 3rd..)? Alexandrite should typically be used only on Fitzpatrick skin types I-II (relatively fair skin that sun-burns easily).
