Question 1

blisters on clitorus ,  and  sore. i use protection. happened few days after hair removal cream. allergic reaction ? or still std?

Accepted Answer

Could be either: or even both.  Herpes is a possibility, especially if the blisters are painful.  You need to go see a gyn.

Question 2

what are the best hair removal methods?

Accepted Answer

Hair removal: Hair removal techniques depend on the location of where you want to have hair removed.  If it is dark hair then most methods including laser or intense pulse light can reduce and at times permanently prevent further hair growth.  Lighter hair remains tricky as their is no melanin in the hair to uptake the energy for lasers so waxing or vaniqua ( a topical medicine) maybe the safest way.

Question 3

how to make bikini hair removal less painful?

Accepted Answer

Alma Soprano Laser: Our soprano xli is probably the most comfortable lhr system on the planet.  It pulses lower energies, 10x/sec through a cooled tip, while in motion, which makes it much more comfortable and more effective.  Take a couple of Motrin an hour before, trim the hair down to stubble (not smooth) and have them use a potent topical anesthetic cream....Not a day at the beach, but great preparation for one.

Question 4

what is better: shaving or hair removal cream?

Accepted Answer

Cream, but...: Depilatory creams dissolve hairs so that they wipe away.  The hair left behind is usually softer than if it had been shaved.  Razors cut hair at an angle, making the regrowth look thicker & more likely to develop ingrown hairs & razor bumps.  The major downside to the creams is potential irritation & you need to use caution near the mucosa (mouth, vagina).  Electric razors are a good option, too.

Question 5

how to make electrolysis hair removal permanent?

Accepted Answer

Accuracy helps: Electrolysis requires very accurate targeting to insure hair follicle growth is stopped. Provider must carefully target the follicles from different sides, and often require additional touch ups to finish the process. Most used for isolated hairs (for example in chin area), laser more common for larger hair areas. It may leave small surface irregularities if repetition is needed to remove the prob.

Question 6

Accepted Answer

Mail body hair: None, except looks (by preference).

Question 7

how much would electrolysis cost for hair removal?

Accepted Answer

Depends: Depends on the number of hairs you want to have removed. Each hair has to be treated individually. The more hairs you have to treat, the more time it takes, the more it costs.

Question 8

if i used hair removal cream, am i damaging my skin?

Accepted Answer

No: Most hair removal creams, when used correctly, do not damage skin, although they may be irritating.

Question 9

are there any home hair removal laser that actually works?

Accepted Answer

Possibly: Remember it takes years about a decade to really determine if a procedure has lasting results and home laser hair systems are only a few years old. They are low wattage lasers compared to one at a doctors office and are used more frequently that office lasers. Thus far is seems there is a reduction in hair with the home systems but it will not be equal to the more powerful systems.

Question 10

how much willlaser hair removal hurt in comparison to waxing?

Accepted Answer

Laser less painful: Laser hair removal when done properly using state-of-the-art lasers is relatively painless. There are patients who say it's unbearably painful but they're probably not being treated by an experienced practitioner using the proper lasers and settings. It stings a bit especially in sensitive areas (like rubber band snapping) but pain should not be an issue. It's much less painful than waxing.
