My laser hair removal experiences as a university student in London

By Mary Basiadima, 11 February 2020

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]A lot of women (and some men!) dream of smooth and hairless skin – I’m no different!.

I am an overseas student living and at a London . I have also been in the nail and industry and have high when it comes to my own appearance, so excess and hair simply cannot exist on my skin!.

(Prices have come down so it’s more affordable for uni students to get laser hair removal and many clinics offer student making it cheaper)

With so many aesthetic, beauty and laser hair clinics available in London laser hair there has never been a better time to get rid of excess hair.

But which one should you choose?.

I previously had laser hair Tattoo removal (related resource site) done for my underarms, arms, and legs when back home in my country. But after moving to the UK for a few years, I discovered that my facial hair had become more visible, especially hair on my upper lip.

Many people said it could be the of hard water hair growth but I’m not so sure. the reason I just wanted it gone.

So I to go for the upper lip and bikini laser hair . Bikini laser hair removal is also very popular, I can understand why just thinking of all the time, money and pain I went with waxing all those years!.

How I choose the skin clinic for my laser hair removal

Since I had very laser hair using by Candela in my home country i wanted to find a clinic in London using them.

I did a Google search and came across Laser & Skin. After digging around for more information about this clinic I found out :

Price of Laser Hair Removal for students

As a it was important that the price was right. at the price again, I found out the cost of Laser & Skin stood out from other clinics in my area.

For example – 

For my upper lip and bikini areas, six sessions are 522 pounds, and eight sessions are 580 pounds. The other I use the same machine, the price for the same skin areas was 596 pounds for four sessions and 1008 pounds for eight sessions.

So I chose Premier Laser & Skin due to their competitive price, a large amount of experience and accessible location. I also booked a consultation and for fat and filler for chin contouring. I plan having them done and get ready for summer.

­­­

I made an online late night and next day morning I received a appointment for free and patch test.

On the day, I arrived at the clinic about 10 in . The clinic was in Liverpool St. in the City of London which was only a 12-minute walk from where I live.

The face-to-face process was very smooth. Firstly I was given a medical form to fill in in order to check my suitability, the laser practitioner then how laser hair treatment works, checked my skin type and areas need to be treated, all my strange questions, followed by doing few patch tests on my upper lip and bikini areas. She explained that laser patch test is a must.

If there is no adverse reaction 48 hours post patch test, I will be totally safe to have the full skin lasered.

She explained the science part that laser light energy is absorbed by which gives hair colour, energy will be transmitted to hair root and destroy it, therefore making the hair lose its to regenerate harming other skin tissues which due to my I had a rough idea about.

I was told that hair needed to be shaved the night before my appointment. This is to make sure laser energy can focus on hair root rather than burn hair shift which can be shaved.

She I cannot use depilatory cream as chemicals will cause skin sensitivity, no plucking and waxing either as the hair root needed to stay so the laser can permanently kill it.

I booked my next full appointment before I left the clinic.

Following my laser practitioner’s instructions, I shaved my lip hair and bikini hair at home the night before my appointment and came to the clinic 10 minutes earlier.

After being registered with the front desk, I had some refreshments in the waiting area, my practitioner themselves and said hello and took me to the laser treatment room.

I lay down on couch comfortably, she my skin and asked few questions, I was given laser protection goggles to wear. She cleaned my skin first, then drew with white pencil on where I want to be treated,

She this was especially important for Bikini areas, so both sides can be treated and symmetrically.

After the first laser pulse, she asked for my feedback, it was ok so she on and all treatment in about 30 minutes.

My skin looked red, similar redness as after waxing.

It felt like someone was flicking an elastic band on my skin by a burst of cool air but it much easier than waxing!. After lasering, my practitioner applied cold aloe vera gel to sooth the skin and to calm down the .

After I got dressed, my reminded me again of the home care process and handed me a paper copy. It listed:

I booked my 2nd laser hair appointment before I left clinic.

I bought a of  8 treatments.

I have fallen in love with my hairless skin!. I will to do the 4 according to the recommendation, and look forward to even better results.
