The laser hair removal treatment is quick and nice, perfect for the upcoming summer.

📌 1. Visited Branch: "Maypure Mia Branch"

It feels like the weather has already gotten really hot, haha. I've seen quite a few people walking around in short sleeves during the day. Since my hair is naturally thick and abundant, I dread the approach of summer. Every summer, I waged a war against hair—plucking it at home, shaving, or going to a waxing salon to pluck it out—which damaged my skin and left me constantly suffering from folliculitis. I felt like I couldn't live like this anymore, so I decided to start laser hair removal this year with the determination to get rid of it completely.

I made a reservation in advance at the Mia branch, which is convenient for me to visit after work. I received a consultation regarding my underarms and calves, and the director explained in detail that consistent treatments tailored to hair thickness and growth cycles are necessary to see definite results. Since my hair roots are naturally strong, I started out expecting at least 10 sessions, let alone the basic 5 haha. Once I lay down in the treatment room, I was relieved that it wasn't as hot or painful as I expected, as they used a machine emitting cold air to cool my skin while shooting the laser. There was a slight stinging sensation, but compared to the tingling pain of waxing, it was truly a breeze.

What I liked most was definitely how incredibly fast the laser hair removal process was. For the underarms, excluding the time for preparation, it felt like a 2-3 minute session? Even including my calves, it didn't take even 10 minutes haha. For busy modern people, is there any bigger advantage than a short treatment time? Since I can just stop by after work, get it done quickly, and go home to rest, I think even someone as lazy as me will be able to go regularly.

It has been about two weeks since my first session, and I can definitely see that the hair growth rate has slowed down noticeably compared to when I used to shave. Also, the new hairs growing in aren't thick and stiff like pencil lead like before; instead, they are thin and soft, which is so fascinating haha. Since that prickly feeling is gone every time I shower, my quality of life has skyrocketed. Just imagining confidently wearing sleeveless tops and shorts this coming summer makes me feel so good already ㅠㅠ. To those of you suffering from self-hair removal at home, please get laser hair removal and see the light. I highly recommend it!
