Hi ladies, I have a question, I did electrolysis on my pubic area, I have blond hair and it took around year and half to remove, I almost finished, however it's so much pain! To do it down there, I used emla cream before treatment, however I could not tolerate the pain so every treatment I did local shots of anesthetic ,( exactly the same like in dentist office when they do anesthetic in teeth ,)very painful needles there.... But after that I didn't feel anything, I heard that there are machines that won't hurt, I don't know what ripe of electrolysis women did to me ( one needle and it's make little noise every time hair removed) I have blind hair which can be more difficult to remove, but I can't tolerate the pain to remove everything , I did only pubic area, I like results! So smooth but I want to remove more down there... But I can't have there even local shots, I tried and it was to painful, so there is a way or machine that won't hurt???? I post pictures u can see where I did

DR Emil Gurshumov proffecional and very nice friendly doctor. He explains everything that really easy understand ( unlike other doctors who talk to u and u can't understand) it's very important because people with frequent UTI or similar problems really need to understand about the problem. I never wait long time at their office, which is very important to me. Another important think is that you can talk with him over the phone if u have urgent problem ( something that's really big problem with many specialists) I really recommend him, his is a great doctor!

Thank you for sharing your review, so far your results look great. What made you decide on Electrolysis rather than laser hair removal?

Who did you see in NYC? I didn't know that you could get lidocaine injections prior to electrolysis?! Who injected you prior to the treatments? Thanks!

If u really want the area completely num u should go to doctor prior to electrolysis so he can num the area- but it's more expenses - worth in my opinion

What kind of doctor would you go to to get injected anesthetic in the pubic area?

For black hair, laser hair removal it's ideal. Lasers work best on black hair. Candela GentleLase worked very well for me.

Hi, it is painful anyway if u have black hair or light hair, I don't think it's more painful for black hair but it's all depends how big area, I did not have gair on bikini area( when u wear bikini- hair that u can see) It's is long process- but your hair will never grow back! And skin so smooth:)
