*** Late post ***
I purchased a Groupon for laser hair removal on a small area: underarms (but should have purchased treatments for everything!). Was a bit afraid and didn't know what to expect but you go into the back room, put some protective eyewear on and Audrey answers any questions you have. She starts up the machine gauging levels for your treatment. Then she quickly zaps section by section. First couple were a bit sore for 30minutes afterwards but bearable. First 2 treatments had no growth whatsoever. After the 3rd and 4th, the hair was back to normal so i was a bit upset. Then the final 2 have reduced growth to what I was hoping for. If it grows back I wouldn't have a problem signing back up for a 2nd round of 6 sessions because i understand it may take more for those with thicker hair. They're really good at offering their promotions. All my sessions took less than 5 minutes and if you can stand a little pain it's absolutely worth it! Schedule MONTHS before summer or your event since you do treatments 4-6 weeks in between each.
Update: a few months after i have stopped my hair has grown back but they did suggest early on it may take more treatments. If this location wasn't so far from where i live i'd get more but i live on the opposite side of town. Overall great experience.
