I don’t particularly want my new profile to have that meth chic look.

    I’d like to but many people I’ve heard said it’s a procedure that needs to be repeated periodically, isn’t it?

      It was a 3-year process, one treatment every 3 months. And no exposure to the sun during those 3 years. But it was so long ago, I hardly remember, and ever since then I’ve been maintenance-free, and free to sunbathe to my heart’s content. No hair.

        Was the treatment full body, once every three months? I’ve thought about this for about 15 years but it seemed like it would take forever. Probably less than 15 years tho… This would be amazing.

          I’m not exaggerating when I say it’s the best decision I’ve ever made. For anyone who’s extremely annoyed by their body hair and has money for laser hair removal, I HIGHLY recommend.

          Best. Decision. EVER.

          I did my trouble areas which I consider full body but it wasn’t technically full body. I did my facial sideburns, mustache area, underarms, Brazilian bikini, and my entire legs.

        I’ve been kind of considering doing something like that since I’ve grown to despise pretty much all my body hair. What do you mean no exposure to the sun? Is it just a case of “don’t stay in the sun unnecessarily” or straight up “turn into a vampire and avoid the sun at all costs”?

          They don’t want you to get a suntan or a sunburn during the course of treatment because it will affect the way the lasers react to your skin.
