Diary - Laser Hair Removal appointment 3 & 4

Please Note: Unfortunately this post was one of the blogs (pre.28th of July 2014) that suffered a 'Blogger' crash.. which saw all images vanishing! I have tried to replace the images from the crash as best as I can. However images of me with products etc.. may be lost as a result and therefore the images you see may not match the text(which is original and was not effected by the crash). My blog has therefore had to start fresh and all blogs starting from July 29th 2014 are correct with the appropriate, original and correct images but unfortunately the same can not be said for images lost in posts before this date. Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Hey Blog Readers!


I just thought I'd do a quick update blog post on how my laser hair removal (underarms, bikini and sideburns) is progressing!

To read my previous blog posts on laser hair removal than just click here for consultation and session 1 or here for session 2 

Appointment 3

So the other week I had my third appointment with Irene at the Galway Laser and Skincare Clinic and I feel that it is only now that I am beginning to see the pattern and realize how laser hair removal actually works.. Basically last week although being my third appointment (not including consultation) was only my 2nd session of laser hair removal because the previous one was just a check-up and review on how the real session had gone!
Although it had worked extremely well for my first session it takes roughly 6 full laser hair removal sessions (not just check-ups or review appointments) to get rid of the hair for good. So to date I have only had two out of six full laser hair removal sessions (I need another 4)... The reason for this is because the hairs grow in phases and once one set of hair has fallen out some time is needed to allow the next growth phase to produce more hair and then the laser treatment is repeated (in total x6). So while I thought I was now on session three I was really only on session 2 as appointment number 2 was a review appointment (I hope I'm making sense! lol).
I now have another appointment later today which will be my 4th appointment with the clinic however it is a review appointment so I will have to wait until my next appointment, after today, to have my third full session of laser hair removal which will be session 3 of 6!

I hope you've managed to keep up with me so far...

SO How did I find my 2nd session of laser hair removal?? 

Session two of full laser hair removal on my bikini, underarms and sideburns was totally fine! It wasn't as painful as session one and I don't think it took as long time wise. This is because the effects of session one were already paying off and the hair wasn't as dense or clustered, making the process less painful. I believe that, hopefully, session three of full laser hair removal will be easier once again!
As always the staff at the clinic were friendly and helpful and it wasn't too awkward getting the likes of the bikini area done as Irene is so professional and experienced.
Laser hair removal isn't a pleasant experience, it is a little uncomfortable, but it's not unbearable and as long as you keep the results in mind you'll realise it's well worth it! :) I am already enjoying the benefits of not shaving!

For those of you that don't know I recently started using YouTube as a means to blog through video tutorials etc.. and I am already noticing the difference in my sideburns on camera - which is great! :)

Look at how improved they are in this latest video...



Compared to how they were in an earlier video (before starting laser hair removal)... skip to 3.23 for a close up..



I see a huge improvement which in return has given me more confidence on camera :)

Later today I am back in the Galway laser and Skin Care Clinic for my review appointment following my second session of Laser hair removal! The hairs have started to grown back a little but they are loose so I expect the appointment to go well and to be in and out within half an hour (as I was for my previous 'review' appointment)
I'm already looking forward to my third session of laser hair removal which will probably be scheduled for a couple of weeks time and will mark me being half way through the full process!! :) eeekk I'm ready to be hair free and carefree! lol :)
