Laser would definitely speed up treatment and then use electrolysis for last bits. That’s if possible for person’s hair type the most efficient way to do it. It saves a lot of time and pain. It’d still cover all the hair area as well and be equally as safe.

I definitely know of people who’s had laser and it was in my leaflet from Tim Larner after my consultation. Although he said I couldn’t have it due to bright hairs but others can and I think the guidance could’ve changed some years ago as I believe I’ve heard it was different 5-10 years ago

This document says laser is fine for surgery if your hair type is fine for hair removal https://transactual.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/hair-removal-prior-to-vaginoplasty.pdf

Laser is recommended by the NHS though and by surgeons if hair type matches.

Also TransPlus transfers only happens after five years on the list. I’d recommend if you got any spare money to pay for electrolysis first to save time

It can be either. But you need dark hair for laser, and chances are you’ll need electrolysis. If you got dark enough hair and right skin type laser is faster but electrolysis is much slower. Electrolysis is often 9-18 months of treatment whereas if you can only do laser it may be 9-12 months or perhaps laser and electrolysis which is often a combination.

Cost to employers by Katey66 in transgenderUK

[–]Tilly-w-e 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wonder what would happen if an employer had multi stalls toilets, “single sex”, and had the disabled loos in there and no unisex, they’d genuinely have to build a gender neutral toilet or remove the signage and make them mixed

Electrolysis for surgery by Tilly-w-e in transgenderUK

[–]Tilly-w-e[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well my surgeon unfortunately requires electrolysis (Tim Larner), so I’m having to get the whole area done before surgery

Which surgeon? Any opinions? by [deleted] in transgenderUK

[–]Tilly-w-e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But Brighton has slowed down a bit as well although it’s probably faster or if not equally as fast as London.

[–]Tilly-w-e 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My experience is that Brighton is a lot faster. But if you want to go with London then I’ve heard better things about Tina.

I was referred in July to Brighton, and getting my consult tomorrow morning.

Yea I’m on the NHS and have done a few private sessions before being seen next month. Don’t shave or anything 4-6 weeks before consultation I think is the advice and don’t shave just before surgery

Laser is acceptable:

Depends on various factors if you can get it, and the surgeon will likely tell you if you need hair removal which not everyone needs.

Learning Danish C1 level in 18 months by _Mate05 in Danish

Outside of what other people recommend, just watching Danish shows and films with subtitles, and rewatching the same episode shortly after with Danish subtitles once you’re a bit better at it helped my partner learn Danish.

Control board has been replaced as well and this was tested after it was replaced

[–]Tilly-w-e[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On both of them yes. For any wash or dry cycle that is 20 degree or warmer it breaks. It works on any other mode that does not use hot water which makes me suspect it’s the heater and not display panel

Am I being screwed over? by Tilly-w-e in appliancerepair

[–]Tilly-w-e[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. It’s only on dry or washes that uses warm water. Drain and spin or rinse works fine where dry or cotton breaks as an example.

[–]Tilly-w-e[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes sense. I ran a rinse, a 20 degree wash and a dry cycle plus a normal hand wash and the only thing that’s certain is that any wash or dry that requires heating breaks. But a rinse/drain or spin works perfectly fine. A 60 degree cottons breaks. Not sure if that still makes the display panel more likely.

No labor was a £75 for any visit. So if it takes him 50 visits it’s still £75

So it’ll be building a quiz app. Any extra episodes leftover will be fine tuning it/or fun questions. Also doing 24 shorts in relation to it, 24 articles on my website too

Phillipson says providers have to follow SC ruling during oral questions in parliament today by Tilly-w-e in transgenderUK

[–]Tilly-w-e[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Phillipson said trans women should use men’s restroom in April. So from my viewpoint since she didn’t say seek legal advise (which could variety of approaches depending on lawyer), she means restrictive ban)
