EndyMed was EXCRUCIATING
I have had this treatment done (well, I terminated it after about 2 minutes) but put "Planning" as I do not want to identify the clinic, as it is the procedure that I am discussing. The clinic is reputable, very good, and gave me this treatment free of charge and did nothing wrong, and so I do not want to write something that could sound like a negative review.
Anyway, to get to the point, this treatment is absolutely EXCRUCIATING beyond your wildest dreams. This pain is 10x worse than kidney stones, it honestly feels like being burned alive. Have you ever suffered a burn where you touch something extremely hot and it comes up as a white lump? Now imagine that mega hot object was pushed against your skin for 3 minutes straight instead of you immediately recoiling from it (or dropping it) on reflex.
That is exactly how it feels, like a white hot coal rubbed and pushed hard onto your skin for 3 minutes. I imagine it feels similar to the brass bull used to exucute people many centuries ago, except concentrated in one area.
It's actually interesting to feel a pain so intense, it's eye opening to know that it's possible for humans to feel so much agony. I've had lots of "painful" treatments done, this is on another level... It's so painful it's amazing that it's being done to you by medical professionals and not some Medieval torturer.
NOW important to mention is that I have stubble, so the gel which is applied may not have properly gone onto my skin? It's hard to say... And also important to note is that I requested it be done in one very isolated area, so the "heat" was applied to a smaller than usual area and held there. Oh and it was applied to the face of course, just under the chin around the neck area.
But in any case, once it heats up this is probably the worst pain a human can experience, but targeted to just one part of your body. And it gets worse and worse and worse until you're writhing around, and all you can hear is the "BEEP" "BEEP" and can't even really see anything because the tunnel vision is so intense. Remember, this is only 3 minutes, and I had to cut it short, it was not even possible to withstand another 5 seconds of whatever the hell that was let alone a full minute. Then they tell you that you need 6 more sessions and it lasts only a year.
Frankly, it would be absolutely stupid to endure 6 sessions of having a white hot coal pushed onto your neck just to look a TINY bit better for a year. I mean seriously? If you're old enough get a facelift, or get CoolSculpting if it's fat, or fillers, get ANYTHING other than this. Obviously if they use local anaesthetic it'll be a breeze but I don't think they do.
