While I have been seeing some definate though very slow progress with beard removal using the home IPL machine I bought. Seeing as how I have been FT for over a month now the slow pace has been frustrating.

Well, I found an awesome deal on laser hair removal so I am officially set up to do my consult and hopefuly first treatment on the 19th! Wheeeee!!!

In socal, sorry kylie.

The place is called 'South coast med spa'

Two locations, one on Wilshire and one in Huntington Beach. They have a 50% off deal going if you can pay up front. The gal I spoke with yesterday said $900-$1100 for the beard/neck areas after the discount. Exact pricing will wait til consult apointment.

Kylie, you might try American Laser Centers if they are in your area. Its a big chain, and they often have sales or discounts. Still, it is not cheap. I paid $1,600. But they offer no-interest financing, too. Good luck, hon.

Ok, update time!

Got to the laser center and found out the promo that would put the pricing @ $900-$1100 had ended.

They have an even better deal now so it only cost me $750. Then the PA who would be doing the treatments took one look at me and practically drooled over how perfect my skin/hair are for getting laser removal.

Dang, honey, you'll do fine! They are right about you being a nearly perfect candidate for the procedure. Go for the gusto, babes! Oh, yeah, congrats on the name change too!!!

Not to be a Debbie Downer but do you think they do that to encourage you to go ahead and set up an appointment? I mean the lady that does my LHR did the same thing. She kept going on and on about how perfect my skin and hair is and how I am an ideal candidate for laser...so naturally I set up my first appointment (several months ago).

I had my first laser just over a week ago. I found a great deal on groupon: 6 sessions, full face, $189. And this was at a dermatologists office.

But the best part of going there was when the girl who was going to do my laser was asking me some medical questions and she asked "Are you pregnant or planning on becoming pregnant?"

"*giggle* uh . no"

      4 months doesn’t seem such a long time now compared to the times I was previously looking at! 🙂   Many thanks to @Karen Careyfor pointing me towards GenderCare, they have been nothing but helpful and professional, and I wouldn’t be where I am now without them.

      What is a perfect day for you?
    • Heather Shay
      Love is a mix of feelings and actions that shows a deep liking for someone or something. Love involves caring for another. Romantic love can lead to things such as dating, marriage and sex, but a person can also feel for friends, such as platonic love, or family. There are also chemical reactions within the brain that can be triggered by the different types of love.

      Good morning, everyone!! I'm still battling the Worst Head Cold Ever. Just when I think I've turned the corner, it smacks me back down. If you've got stock in tissues, I'm driving up your profits.   Our early Spring has the grass growing quickly. I need to get out today and cut it before it grows over the house. Today is supposed to be sunny and mid-60s so I'll suck up not feeling great and get the mowers out. At least I'll be in the sunshine for a few hours. The next few days are supposed to be rainy so it's today or wait until the weekend.   Time for a second cup of coffee!!   Stay safe and enjoy this beautiful day we've been given!!

      Welcome Mattie.  When i got here i was at a point bin my journey when i was discovering my path.  Writing about it and reading about others helped me greatly as did gender therapy.  Perhaps the hardest thing was finding self acceptance without feeling guilt at simply being me. Enjoy your time here.  You are not alone.   Hugs,   Charlize

      Ugh. The worst head cold. Ever.

      @Breanne_O You seem to be on your way there girl-- full speed ahead it was a real adventure for me 11 years ago.

      I picked a cancellation spot with Dr Lorimer yesterday and had my consultation a month early.  I had been worried about how it would go, but the process of exchanging information was nothing to worry about and I felt quite at ease throughout.  That’s not to say some parts weren’t challenging to articulate clearly, but Dr Lorimer’s manner helped enormously.   The GI/GD diagnosis was such a welcome conclusion to it all, and such an important milestone in my journey.   Now for the Endo consult waiting…

      This one is NOT over, and this is not a final final ruling on the matter since this was a procedural and not substantive ruling based on scientific evidence.

      I am on a three month review cycle for dosage. Do you have a plan with your doctor? I didn't discuss overall strategy when I got my prescription, it was a very long appointment. I was able to ask via web message to get a better idea; we'll check blood every 3 months and titrate accordingly. I don't know if we'll change labs to 6mo after a year or not, but that's where I'm at now. I, too, was like "is this enough?" at the start. Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't, but I've seen positive results during the months at a lower dose and continue to notice changes. For instance, my skin sensitivity is much higher. I always wondered why my wife was so ticklish, but I'm starting to understand why. I'll bet I am 20-40% more sensitive to touch than I was before; gently tickling my arm (I would wake up doing this sometimes, up and down my arms) now makes my fingers tingle...in a good way. :)
