Hey Everyone! Wow do I have some info to tell you guys! I know it has been a while since I have posted anything but I do have some information that you MUST know. I found out after my last treatment that the laser that the facility was using was NOT made for African American skin. Please do not go anywhere that uses an IPL laser.
Long story short I decided not to go back for more treatments and I still had quite of bit of hair on my chin. I experienced burns and everything with that laser and unfortunately you will find that some facilities would rather get your money than to tell you the truth that the IPL is not the solution for you.
I ended up getting a Groupon for another facility that had a YAG laser and honey let me tell you that laser has changed my life! After the first treatment I didn't have burns, I didn't have to put ice on my face or anything. I didn't even have to shave for four weeks after and when the hair did grow in it was really fine and you could barely see it. After my second treatment it was even better. I'm going on my 6th week without shaving. I love this laser so much that I have paid to get my full legs done.
I FEEL LIKE A NEW WOMAN!
The confidence in myself is back. No longer do I feel ashamed to look someone face to face. I will try to post picture of my now clearer than ever chin so that you to will understand the joy that I feel right now.
So my word of advice is PLEASE PLEASE make sure you know and understand what type of laser the facility is using. Ask them if it is a YAG laser which is made for darker pigmented skin.
Thank you all for being on this journey with me!
I'll be back
smooches!
