Procedure: IPL Hair Removal to Underarms
Why you chose this procedure? I wanted to do IPL for my underarms because I had very course thick black hair. When I shaved I felt like there was a shadow and it was inconvenient to wax as I had to grow to the hair to a certain length.What you did to get ready for procedure? I shaved the area the day before my appointment and I also avoided fake tan in that area.
What you felt during the procedure: The treatment felt like something hot flicking back on my skin. It was a little painful but very quick. I felt like my second and third treatment were less painful, I guess because there isn’t as much hair there as there was to begin.
What you felt/saw post procedure: My underarm’s were a bit red and a little tender, however that passed within 24 hours. After the treatments it took about a week for the hair to fall out.
Results: I’ve had 3 treatments so far and the hair that remains is very patchy and very fine I would think after another couple of treatment s that would be it.
Recommendations: Do it, it is great. I will be treating other areas.
