Just curious what everyone would do if this was you. Here’s my situation though, done a lot of laser obviously then about 6 months ago I bought this deal for $249 when group buy sites had LHR on there non stop. It was for 1 year unlimited laser on full legs, chest and forearms with LightSheer. I went for one treatment, worked well had good shedding but then she told me she is selling it and bought 2 Soprano XLs. Emailed the deal company so they refunded me $50. I went and did the Soprano XL on my next treatment and to my surprise had 100% shedding much better than the LightSheer.
Now about 2 treatments ago, she suddenly started going up way higher on my arms than just forearms, doing the whole things. I have very light fine hair on my upper arms but figured whatever. It hurt though since it wasn’t shaved. At this session she also said that legs have a long growth cycle and that we don’t need to treat them as often, so she asked me to point out what areas seemed to be missed or had the most growth, which were my knees and some other areas. She put it in the non SHR mode, the one that works like LightSheer and did those areas.
Then on my last treatment, she did everywhere in that mode and not the SHR mode. She said it’s better for finer hairs as most the dark coarse hair has been eliminated. She once again kept doing it on my upper arms where I said it hurt like mad and she said it’s because I’m not shaved up there. On my legs it was really painful as well, total opposite of SHR mode. The only thing is she told me NOT to shave before my next treatment so she could see the progress.
Here’s my concern. In the room it’s literally a chair, the bed, the Soprano XL and a cupboard which I’m pretty sure didn’t have much in it. I’m worried that I won’t shave and that she’ll do the laser with my legs fully hairy. That would be bad obviously and a waste, but I figure since I’ve already paid for a years worth and done like 6 sessions or so, if she did do that I could just not go back again and there’s no issue. My concern is that it will hurt like mad or burn or something. So not sure what I should do. Tempted to say forget it and go back to my old clinic with the Apogee Elite where I’ve got great results, but although they are super inexpensive for treatments, full legs are $350 which is super expensive and more than I’d want to spend especially since I’d need multiple treatments. Just don’t want to waste my time going to this current place if they think it’s normal to do a treatment without shaving.
