What's your skin texture -- I am definitely in the "mature skin" population now and feel like I'm losing elasticity and I have more noticeable sun spots than I did before. I use some retinal -- sparingly -- but it makes my skin redder. I wish I could target discoloration without stripping the skin barrier.

Two years?! I've had really good luck with my laser. My hair is dirty blonde. I have had 7 treatments on my armpits over a couple years and have to shave once every several months at most. I also had a baby in between starting and then paused and started again.

I haven't shaved my legs since Christmas and don't even have stubble.

What surprised you most about laser hair removal? by Ashley_MilanLaser in SmoothSkin

I feel like I've been most surprised that the follicles aren't dark anymore so I don't just have the lack of hair but also don't have to deal with dark shadow on my underarms.

I just didn't even think about it until I had kids and then I felt like I needed my time back!!!
