My Period Is Regular! But Facial Hair Is Here To Stay :(



Recommended Posts

I had laser before the op when I still had pcos and it helped so much I only did 1 round of treatments and I would say it cut about 70% of the hair and it grows much slower I got a groupon deal 3 small areas so I did chin lip and armpits all 6 treatments over the year total cost £115.
Laser works best on fair skin and dark hair it wont remove blonde hair as it need the colour in the hair for the laser to travel down.
And if you tan or you have darker skin is can cause patchy discoloured skin.
You go every 5 weeks as the hair grows in 5 week cycles the day you go some hair might have come out and not be in a growth state so missed that kind of thing.
Once you start laser you can not pluck/wax etc no root ripping out so you can only shave for the whole length of time you laser.
Laser travels down the hair and into the root damaging it from growing you do several treatments to eventually kill it for good.
I still have some hair I will be doing a round 2 groupon again to hopefully get rid of remaining hair from all 3 places for good!

Have you tried laser hair removal? It's quite affordable now... Thank god! I laser my entire face every 6 weeks for $99 us dollars. I'm quite happy with the results.

Curious.. how many times have you had it done? Also is it not permanent?

Nevermind.. my question has been answered.. I should of kept reading. thank you

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
