hi jerome! redness,swelling

hi jerome!

redness,swelling up to 3 days(around the mouth of the hair follicle),reddening after treatment,blistering of skin are experienced by most patients after the procedure but these are temporary side effects only. some experience crusting,bruising( purple coloring of the skin),infection,burns on the skin and hypo pigmentation but these rarely happens.
laser hair removal is actually a safe procedure especially if you go to reputable clinic and have it done by a highly skilled laser hair removal physician. i highly recommend to "shop" around first,do your research,visit the site if you have to so you could select the best laser hair clinic and avoid these side effects.

Freaking out!

Hi! I did my underarms today for the first time. Its been over 15 hours & my underarms are still stinging and I still see hair and I have all these small little red, scab looking spots. Is this normal? what can I do to alleviate the stinging. I had shaved the day before. thx

i agree! first step to avoid

i agree! first step to avoid permanent side effects is to go a reputable clinic. aside from the redness and swelling ive experienced during the 1st 3 days after treatment, my skin looks okay. the clinic was not cheap but i was satisfied by how they took care of me.
