Ever since I was young, I had a huge problem with the hair down there. It was pretty thick, dark and seemed to grow out farther than just my bikini area. I had tried everything from shaving, waxing and sugaring before I decided to buy a groupon and get laser hair removal. Since shaving only lasted a day before red bumps and irritation appeared, I saw laser hair removal as my last real chance at feeling free and able to wear a bikini whenever I felt like it (which is crucial when you live in San Diego!) Surprisingly, after talking to many of my girlfriends, I found out that they were ALL (about 8 of them) undergoing laser treatments themselves. I asked them many questions about it and after listening to their answers, I decided I was the perfect candidate (white skin and dark black hair). They all told me to get a prescription numbing cream (Lidocaine and Prilocaine) which I was to thickly apply to the treated area an hour before the treatment (and after having completely shaved the area). After applying the cream, you want to cover it in saran wrap and lay there while it soaks in. By the time I arrived at the laser center, I was totally numb down there. I had initially bough a groupon for 6 treatments of the bikini and underarm area but after my first treatment I paid more to add on the entire brazilian. I figured since they were down there already, why not just do it all. Even with the numbing cream, I found myself clenching in pain each time the laser clicked. But I grit my teeth and pictured myself in a bikini on the beach with no worries. After the first treatment, I was no longer uncomfortable with someone being all up in my business down there. After the 6th treatment was done, I opted to pay for an additional 6 (for another $300) because I could clearly see results. I am currently done with my 7th treatment and I cannot believe the results. Almost all of the pubic hair is gone and whatever grows back is very fine, thin, blonde hair that I didn't even know I had! My bikini line is smooth and totally hairless. My underarms can go for days without shaving and it looks like I never had hair grow there in the first place. I really was one of those people who were pretty much desperate for a permanent hair removal solution and laser hair removal really was my answer. Yes the treatments can hurt but they only last for 5 minutes and the results are worth it. I was not sore or red after any of my treatments. If you have tried everything else and don't know where else to turn, I would suggest this route. It is the most well spent money I've ever spent!

I did this over 6 years ago and best money I ever spent....my sister just had her second treatment and she is already happy with the results. If you get a reputable place to do it you will be very happy!

I was lucky enough to find a groupon to a good place with a nearly pain free laser. its one of the alma lasers and I barely felt it on the first treatment. It did hurt a little on the second treatment because she cranked up the intensity but it mostly just felt really hot at times. After the first treatment, it took me at least 2 weeks before I saw enough growth to warrant shaving. Best $300 I have ever spent.
Yeah, its definitely a very sensitive part of the body. comparatively, i have a very low pain threshold, so i use a numbing cream for any laser treatment (hair removal and tattoo removal). luckily for me i have had both done multiple times. Therefore, i bought a large amount of numbing cream. it is really effective if you apply it on prior to the treatment. i use(d) bioevolve numbing cream because you can get a large amount of it.
