What dose the laser hair removal treatment feel like?

Laser hair removal feel like a rubber band snapping the skin.
It is also important to remember that everyone is different and it will depend on you level of sensitivity or pain tolerance. The pain wasn't unbearable at all, nothing like the searing pain of waxing.
To take the edge off, pop acetaminophen beforehand, or ask your doctor to prescribe a numbing cream (apply 30 minutes ahead of time).
Slight redness and swelling afterward is normal, Ice packs may be applied to the skin following treatment. If localized blistering occurs, a topical antibiotic ointment is applied once or twice daily until healed.
