My First Diamond Peel Experience at Clinica Medicci

It’s been ages since the last time I had a facial, or any facial treatment for that matter. So when I got some loose Paypal money last month and saw diamond peel treatment vouchers at Metrodeal.com, I just had to buy two for the fiancee and me. We used the vouchers last Saturday right after I had my IPL treatment at Power Peel Clinic.

EHow.com describes diamond peel treatment as “a non-surgical procedure in which the skin is exfoliated to remove dead skin cells using actual diamond chips to vacuum the skin away.” Others explain it simply as a mechanical peeling of the skin or microdermabrasion. As I experienced it, it was like a gentle facial treatment that left my face feeling extra smooth, glowing and radiant after. Even the fiancee’s face looked different in a good way!

My IPL Laser Underarm Hair Removal Experience at La Estetica (Fourth Session)

After a two-week delay, I finally got my fourth IPL laser underarm hair removal treatment from La Estetica-Tomas Morato branch. As I still had two vouchers left and both are expiring this month, I thought of giving the other voucher to my sister J. We went to the clinic yesterday afternoon and we were finished in no time.

So far, I have observed that my underarms now have less and finer hair. My underarm hair used to be on the thick side, you know. They may be far from being hairless, but I can say I’m quite satisfied with the changes. I plan to buy new IPL vouchers but will choose a different clinic because I want to get more laser clicks. While my first IPL session from a different beauty clinic gave me several clicks per underarms, La Estetica during my second, third and fourth session only gave me four clicks each. As with most of you, I also want to get full value for my money.

My IPL Laser Underarm Hair Removal Experience at La Estetica (Third Session)

I just had my third IPL session this afternoon. The treatment went so fast I felt like I stayed at La Estetica-Tomas Morato for less than 10 minutes only. This time, they shaved my underarm hair first and put some gel on both underarms before doing the laser thingy. It was also the first time I tried counting the number of times they would apply the laser to my underarms. Can you believe each underarm only had four IPL hits? That’s why it was that fast!

To be honest, I haven’t seen any decrease in my underarm hair a month after my second IPL session. It’s like nothing has changed at all. I still have two IPL sessions left with La Estetica so I don’t wanna lose hope this early. Perhaps, I’m just expecting more because of the favorable results of my first IPL session with a different beauty clinic where right after a few days, I noticed some parts of my underarms became hair-free already.

My IPL Laser Underarm Hair Removal Experience (First Session)

Remember my plan to get rid of my underarm hair permanently? I have finally found the time to take the first step to that. As promised, I’m blogging about my experience in this blog. My first laser underarm hair removal treatment happened last night at White Beauty Face and Body Center (West Avenue branch). For this procedure, I used my Ensogo voucher which I got for P600.

.

First, I booked an appointment with White Beauty. Weekends were fully booked already so I had no choice but to have my treatment on a weekday. I asked for a 7:00 p.m. schedule so I could have enough travel time going there. Traffic was surprisingly light when we hit the road at 5:45. We got to the place just a little over 30 minutes. We got attended to as soon as we entered the door. By the way, I was accompanied by the fiancé and his sister. They gave me moral support all throughout the procedure. Haha.
