Since my last update on the laser hair removal front I have had two more sessions with the lovely people over at Transform. I am so happy, so excited and so pleased with how everything is going, but let me tell you all the nitty gritty details of my sessions.
Since
session one I only had to shave my armpits 3-4 times in the 6 weeks before
session two. The hairs were much finer, lighter and weren't growing half as
fast as they did before I got the treatment done. As I previously mentioned in
my last post (found here) I usually get small bumps on the skin after shaving my armpits, but the amount of bumps reduced since getting my first session of
laser hair removal.
SESSION 2
Just like
with my first session I was taken into the room at the exact time I was due, as
a very impatient person this is always something I admire, when a business are
very accurate with their timing. Marie was lovely as always asking about my day
and what I would be doing over September weekend. All the staff at Transform
are so sweet, friendly and caring which of course makes me much more at ease and
trusting with them.
This time
was less painful than my first session and it didn't last long at all, it
literally took 5 minutes per armpit to have the laser treatment done. As always
Marie started on my right-hand side and then moved around to the left. I find
the right side to be a little sorer than the left, at this point I had no idea
why.
The heat
wasn't too bad, for the right-hand side it felt warmer than the left and I did
ask Marie to stop for a second, during this time she ran the cooled end of the
laser over my skin to cool it down, the left-hand side however, I didn't have
to have the laser turned off at all, it didn't burn as badly as the right. Most
of the pain on the left was actually a tugging feeling.
Between
session two and session three I only shaved my armpits twice, which is
obviously amazing! The hairs were much finer once again and growing even slower
than before and there was a further reduction of bumps after shaving.
SESSION 3
I had my
third session of my laser hair removal treatment on Friday. Once again it was
Marie who done the procedure, I like that it is the same specialist who
continues to do the treatment throughout all sessions, something you probably
would not get by getting the treatment through a regular salon.
This time it
hurt a lot more, once again especially on my right-hand side. Marie did say that
the area it hurt more in was where my armpit dipped in so it took more time to
cover this area. However, unlike session two I did have to ask Marie to stop on
both armpits because the heat was a lot warmer on both, not just the right.
When I told
Marie this she asked if it was my time of the month or if I was due it soon, it
turns out it was more painful because of my monthly cycle. Marie explained that
before, after and during women’s TOMs the laser does burn a little more and it
is very common. Something you may like to know if you are looking to go for the
treatment.
Although it
burned a little more than usual it wasn't like I felt on fire or anything, I
was able to get through the treatment especially with the cooling end of the
laser cooling the skin whenever it hurt too much. Salons will not have this
cooling end to the laser, so if you would like to save some money and not get
it through Transform or another clinic then it will hurt more.
After my
third session Marie was kind enough to give me a complimentary facial and skin
analysis using some of the amazing medical products they use and sell in the
Transform clinic. I will be doing a whole separate post on this and will link
it here if you would like to check it out.
