I want to also add that I have had lichen sclerosis for a few years now and I battled with whether or not to shave because shaving is irritating to the skin, but growing out my hair was SO itchy and irritating for me too. Now I feel so much more physically comfortable. It’s just so great. Like legitimately life changing. I am so happy with it.
When I say extremely hair I mean I had several areas with 4-5 hairs coming out from one follicle. They are so dark and thick that even if I shaved I have a perpetual 5o’c shadow bc the thick ass hair roots show thru my skin. My bikini area comes out 2 inches down my thigh, so no matter what I did, I could never fully hide it. Now it’s just gone!!!! I feel like I’ve never felt this confident!!!!!
You have to go in with a bush. Definitely was the hardest part. Even with my hair growing sooo fast I had to grow it out for 2 weeks. They told me it has to be at least the length of an uncooked rice grain. Also I showered before and they said don’t exfoliate at all. BUT I think that’s cause of the cleanser they use, so maybe ask the place you go to about it.
