laser hair removal client shares her treatment experience
Reannon is a real Indigo MedSpa client who has had laser hair removal on her legs, underarms and bikini. Read her treatment experience and learn how you can get results like hers with laser hair removal.
1.Q: How long have you been an Indigo client?
A: I started my laser hair removal treatments in the spring of 2007, so about two years ago, and I'm still going strong! I began with my underarms, and then moved on to my legs, and now bikini!
2.Q: Were you satisfied with your treatment results?
A: I'm TOTALLY satisfied with my treatment results! I've always had very sensitive skin, so I'd learned to live with razor burn, bumps and ingrown hairs from shaving pretty much constantly; if I ever wanted to wear shorts, swimsuits, sleeveless shirts, etc, I had to shave the night before so my red bumps would go away in time, and I had to use special lotion. I tried waxing, and it worked, but my hair grew so fast that I was getting waxed every 2-3 weeks. It was just expensive and time consuming.
So I decided to try laser hair removal. I was shocked at how quickly I saw results - my second treatment was scheduled for about 8 weeks after the first, but I had to reschedule for an additional month later because there wasn't any hair growing back to zap! Once the hair did start to grow back, there was only about half as much there, and it was MUCH thinner than I had EVER had. And every treatment from there on out had the same results - less hair than before, and much thinner and finer hair each time.
Now I'm two treatments into my third laser hair removal area - my bikini line! - and I'm already ecstatic with the results. This summer I'll FINALLY be able to wear a swimsuit and not worry about shaving the night before, hiding my red bumps under a towel, or the painful mixture of suntan lotion and razor burn. In fact, I don't worry about ANY of the areas I've had laser hair removal treatments on - I can just change and go!
3.Q: What was your impression of Indigo MedSpa's staff?
A: I can't say enough about the staff at Indigo MedSpa. From working with me to reschedule appointments when the roads were too bad in the winter to drive, to the fun conversations with my treatment nurse Mary, I've had nothing short of spectacular service. They remember me when I walk in, they make notes about which laser machines I prefer for my treatments, and Mary always has fun things to talk about.
4.Q: Did you purchase any products at Indigo?
A: I've only purchased one product at Indigo thus far - the topical anesthetic gel that you apply before your treatment to "take the edge off" the discomfort. I'm very happy with this gel - it works just as the folks at Indigo said it would, and it makes the treatments to those extra-sensitive areas much more comfortable.
5.Q: What was your favorite part of your treatments?
A: My favorite part of the treatments was (of course) the RESULTS! Come on - never having to shave again? No more red bumps or razor burn? Smooth, beautiful skin that doesn't scream at you whenever you put scented lotion or deodorant on, or get irritated when you sweat or cross your legs? I can't think of anything I enjoy about my treatments more than the results I've gotten - it's amazing!
6.Q: How have the treatments effected your day to day life?
A: My day to day life has definitely changed since I started getting laser hair removal treatments. I save at least 10-15 minutes in the shower every morning since I don't have to shave. The skin on my legs stays hydrated because I can actually put lotion on it without having it get all red and painful. In the summer I can throw on a sleeveless shirt and shorts without even thinking about if my hair is too long and noticeable. I don't spend time trying to remove and heal ingrown hairs. It's just been wonderful not having to worry about ANY of these things anymore.
7.Q: What reactions have you received following treatment?
A: The nice thing about laser hair removal treatments is that their results aren't MEANT to be noticed! But when I've shown people the areas that I've had treated, they are amazed (and jealous!) at how smooth and bump-free my skin is.
8.Q: Would you recommend getting the treatment you did to friends or family?
A: I would absolutely recommend laser hair removal treatments to ANYONE - friends, family, men and women. For me, it was all about making my skin healthier and more manageable. Others could use it to get rid of embarrassing or unsightly hair in more obvious areas like the face, chest or back. The time and money you put into your treatments is a SMALL price to pay for results that last FOREVER - never buying razors or shaving cream, never going through the painful waxing process, never dealing with red bumps, razor burn or irritated and ugly skin - just five quick treatments and all of that stuff is history.
