| - I bought myself a Groupon for my entire legs as a present to myself last Christmas. I haven't quite completed all of the 6 treatments I purchased, but I have enough experience with the place that I can now review it.
For starters, they use the type of laser machine that never touches your skin, which is a BIG plus for me. My friend got laser treatments at a different place with a type of machine that touches your skin and she actually caught a skin virus from it, yuck.
Secondly, I've always had positive, friendly interactions with the ladies who work there - from the receptionists to the technicians.
Third, they are very careful to not use the laser on you if you've recently been exposed to sun and they warn you not to go into the sun after treatment. This prevents any adverse reaction or hyperpigmentation. And the sun seriously does affect you afterwards! Just walking from the place to my car and I could feel my legs start burning from the sun exposure.
Most importantly - the laser treatments really work! After my 3rd treatment I started to notice a significant decrease in hair. And I could go a lot longer between days when I had to shave my legs. The only thing to note is that when you buy a Groupon, it will typically include 6 treatments. And for most people that's not enough. I expect that I will need 8 treatments to have completely smooth legs. And those treatments without a Groupon are pricey! Even with their "special deal" they gave me, it still ended up being $200/session for the extra sessions I need.
*one "trick" I just thought of is that maybe you can buy a Groupon for the Scottsdale location and then buy a Groupon for the Biltmore location? it might work... keep it in mind...
the only cons that I will note are that sometimes they are busy and running behind. I've had to wait up to 40 min for my appt before. also, sometimes the technicians are rushed, so it seems like they aren't as thorough with the laser as at other times. for example, they are supposed to mark your leg into quadarants with chalk to help keep track of which sections have been lasered and which haven't. well, sometimes when they are in a rush they don't bother to do that and I feel like they maybe miss spots.
oh and as for the pain, it's very little (at least for me). on a scale of 1-10, most of the time it feels like a 1, but for some particular areas (like around the ankles) it can feel up to a 3. but that does not last long.
I would recommend this place, esp. w/ a Groupon! do it, you won't regret it.
