I'm so glad you asked this question. My mo is getting out of control! But I'm a bit worried about laser burns Ok under your arms but a bit of a problem on the mifddle of your face - what are the best ways to avoid this happening?

Maybe get them to do a lower setting first? Otherwise they suggest to keep the area out of the sun for at least two weeks before treatment - hard to do if it's your face though.

Slathering on aloe vera gel straight away after treatment helps to cool it down but besides from that I don't know what to suggest, as I have never been burned at the clinic I switched over to now so I am thinking it was more to do with the technician/equipment at the first clinic I tried - they didn't use the cooling air like the place I go to now. When I was getting my back done there the pain was a LOT more intense than it had been when they did my underarms but if you have never had it done before then you have nothing to compare it to.

I love laser hair removal - my lip and chin are SOOOO much better than they were - not perfect, but good enough that I don't feel so self conscious.... but research your company first, I went to a reputable place that was set up by Dr's, so I had to have a review by the dr first, and the nurses did the treatments....
it stings a little at first, but after a while is fine and is WAYYYYY less painful than waxing
