Laser beard removal for rare chronic folliculitis

Brenton

Thanks for digging up the Electrologist recommendation, i will certainly be contacting her at some point even just for a consultation, i also found a website called “The British insitute & association of electrolysis” where there are 2 in my local area, which might be worth checking out.

I didn’t know you had your beard done, thanks for sharing, how was the overall pattern after the 5-6 treatments? Any patchiness? Are you having electrolysis everywhere or just on the stubborn chin area?

I think if i can get to the point where my cheeks and neck area are sparse and thin, and only need shaving every few days or so without the shadow and without it looking “weird” when it starts to grow in - i will be a happy man.

Also, my moustache area is not affected by the folliculitis, and my goatee area only mildly, i’m wondering if the chin area could either be completely left, or only have 1-2 treatments as i would still like to have a small amount of facial hair.

I remember reading somewhere on here a guy who only has to shave his moustache and chin and takes him like 20 seconds, that would be really cool if i could achieve that.

I keep having second thoughts now and again, but i’m so depressed with the state of my face, and the fact i can never shave, and my confidence has really took a downturn, friends and family can tell it’s really affecting me because i’m usually very confident and fun to be around, but my life now revolves around how my face looks, and like i said before - i have cancelled dates with potential girlfriends, not gone to fun events or weekends away with friends because of it.

So i think with all that - i’m making the right decision.

So glad i found this forum, thanks to everyone contributing!
