Shaving is such a pain in the neck for most of us, unfortunately it is something we deal with on a daily basis! Since the first day I met my husband, I always heard him say that he wishes he would have permanent hair removal done to his face and under arms. To be fair, I could definitely relate to the underarm dilemma but the face, well that is something I have to take his word for. Because a lifetime of shaving is not something he looks forward to and to make an informed decision, we decide to scheduled a complimentary consultation at Body Details to learn more about Laser Hair Removal. What is Body Details? Body Details is South Florida’s premiere Laser Hair & Tattoo removal center. Body Details was founded in Coral Gables in 2005 and has four South Florida locations, Coral Gables, Aventura, Ft. Lauderdale and Pam Beach.
Last Saturday, we headed to the Body Details office in Coral Gables for my husband’s first consultation. Honestly, we did not know what to expect but as soon as we walked into the office we were greeted by the friendliest staff, they even helped us to make change to pay for the parking meter. After he signed in, we waited for a couple of minutes for Jocelyn, the office provider. Jocelyn explained to us the differences between the Body Details True Lasers©, the only class 4 permanent laser hair removal devices approved by the FDA, but most importantly she explained their LIFETIME GUARANTEE. If for any reason you need additional sessions you can come back, no questions ask, guaranteed, and get the additional sessions for no additional cost.
Right after his first consultation, he had his first session done. We met Angelica and she brought us back to a room on the second floor and as we walked in there was a TV and of course the Laser. She also advised the room will be at 57 degrees to cool the laser from the heat generated. Body Details advices before each session: keep the treatment area out of sun exposure, no antibiotic at least two weeks prior and to take ibuprofen or acetaminophen or something equivalent at least 45 minutes before, it all depends on the person. Angelica was very helpful and explained the process in detail to us, she had him clean this underarms with a wipe and later outlined the area to help guide the laser. She provided us with special glasses to help protect our eyes from the laser and then she started the laser. The laser feels hot to the skin but it is quickly followed by a burst of cool air, there is no discomfort. The session took around 10 minutes and it was over before we knew it, she put Hydrocortisone cream in the treated areas, case he experienced any discomfort or red bumps, he did not experience neither of them.
Right after his session we headed down stairs to schedule his next appointment which will be in March. We were explained that depending on your hormones and body type you could get between 5 to 10 sessions for you to complete your treatment. Every time you go for a session 10-20% off you hair follicle eliminated. Stay tune for more reports on the process of hubby’s journey to hairless underarms.
Disclosure: We were facilitated a complementary Laser Hair Removal package to facilitate a series of reviews. No Monetary compensation was received.
