My SPL Or-Light Treatment for Brazilian & Underarm

During June and July I decided I wanted laser hair removal. I chose a franchise which used SPL and an Or-Light machine.

On 9th July 2010 I had a test patch of 1 zap on my upper pubic area close to the bikini line.

On 13th July 2010 I had a test patch of 3 zaps under my left underarm at a second clinic.

For the few weeks that followed I kept an eye on it, and about 2 weeks later, there was barely any hair on those test patch areas. I did not have to shave my underarm in the spot where the patch was removed. I was very impressed and happy. As the hair regrew on the bikini and pubic bone, that patch stood out with barely any hairs there.

On 12 August 2010, I went back to that second clinic and had a full brazilian and also my underarms done for a total of $155.

It took about 35 minutes max for the entire treatment. It feels like a hot burning sting, but only lasts for that second. There is no pain afterwards. It’s just onto the next zap.

Here you can follow my progress, and I will make a full detailed website about it with photos to put up as well.

Any questions, ask away. :slight_smile:

What is your skin type? Light based machines are not as good as a true laser and don’t always produce permanent results. You should see if you can find an actual laser that’s best for your skin type as light based devices tend to just be long term waxing…

You didn’t choose a real laser machine? Interesting. I wonder why not.

Well, good luck! I’m interested to see how this thread progresses.

Are you located somewhere where true lasers aren’t available? Those aren’t great machines.

Did you experience shedding of all treated hair? All hair should fall out within 3 weeks after the treatment. Please update us on that. If that doesn’t happen, the treatment is not working.

so how did your SPL treatment go??
