hello, I have tried IPL and SCC (pm me for more info, not too sure if i can say it here tho). It does work for sure, but it also depends some factors on thickness of your hair, hormones and how fast does your hair grow once shaved. Not all skin tone people can do this service, if your skin is fair/olive, yes, if you are slightly dark.. then they wont recommend u to do it, it might burn ur skin.
