If anyone is considering Laser Hair Removal and you're located near a Transform clinic, then you may be interested to know they are currently offering 1/2 price courses. I think the current offer ends on 31st December, although they were also offering the same in February earlier this year.0

Thought I'd post about my Vaniqa experiment as I know some people here are interested:

Thanks for the blog link
I've just had a look on ebid there and can see 2 sellers for vaniqa - both around the £22-£26 mark. Think I'll invest...Wealth is what you're left with when all your money runs out0 -

Just thought I'd drop a wee note to say how I'm getting on with this stuff.
In a word...
:eek:
lolOnly messing!
I honestly have to say I noticed a difference within a week (supposed to be 8!)!! Usually I epilate my face once a week on a Fri eve or Sat morning, and I'm usually itching to get it done coz it's driving me crazy. But that first week, by the Saturday I actually figured I could leave it an extra day or 2!! Maybe it all depends how 'bad' things are to begin with. I don't know. Plus, I'm not always using it both morning and night as instructed. Once a day at least. Can't get over the difference already!
So it's a big thumbs up from me!Wealth is what you're left with when all your money runs out0 -
Hi
My dr will not prescribe this to me due to cost, and it is no longer for sale on ebid. Does anyone know anywhere else this can be bought?0 -

But now you have been diagnosed your GP has to treat you with what is available according to pals
So look at it as a positive.
I'm borderline. So no I don't get any authorised treatments0 -
What a fab thread! I thought I was a freak as I have battled with my very hairy body and face since being a teen. The problem seems to be getting more acute now I am in my 50's I can cope with the wrinkles that age brings but find the facial hair very difficult to accept
Currently shave/epilate but find epilating my face very painful and get awful spots afterwards but have ben accepting the bumps and spots as a reasonable payoff to have a fuzz free face for a few weeks
I can't use creams as they just burn my skin and the resulting soreness and redness lasts for days and days - by the time its faded - the hair has returned for an encore
I have just ordered a x12 magnifying mirror and a Epicare from Amazon to try - live well out of town so visiting a threading salon is not possible and have had limited results from DIY threading
Will follow this thread with interest to see how eberyone gets on with their various strategies!:heartpuls The best things in life aren't things :heartpuls

I can sympathise with you charlies-aunt. I 'put up' with the lumps and bumps and spots as a result of hair removal, just so I can be fuzz free too!!
EDIT:
Just checked on ebid and Vaniqa is back on for sale for £23.99Wealth is what you're left with when all your money runs out0
