Laser Center Of Orlando — Attraction in Orlando

Hello, I am a 30 year old athlete, dancer, circus performer, stunt performer, and wife. I have thought of getting laser hair removal a few times now in my life but kept putting it off. I have always shaved, tweezed, wax, and Nair. I have tried a lot. I decided to give laser a try a few years ago through a groupon since I had heard horror stories of how expensive laser hair removal can be and how that can get you into contracts that in then end cost you thousands of dollars.

I still spent a few hundred dollars on 12 or more sessions to get some small areas done and unfortunately the hair always came back. I was so confused because I thought surely after 12 sessions my small area like armpits and others would be hairless by now!

So I gave that up and ended up pay $500 for a really good at home laser. Also a waist if your looking for results fast. My life is not always consistent so to have to laser myself every 2 weeks in the same areas for a year or more did not work out. I got about 12 or so sessions in with myself and said this isn’t working either.

It wasn’t till a few months ago when I finally couldn’t take it anymore with certain facial hair. I was dying of embarrassment of people asking me what’s going on with the side of my face and neck. I was constantly digging with tweezers to try and pluck these very dark hairs out of my face and neck which were very noticeably on white skin. Then I had big red marks and scabs that also did not cover well with makeup.

I called and researched a few places in Orlando but Laser Center of Orlando’s website seemed very honest, helpful, and explained so much more then on any other websites. When I called I talked to Lauren (the electrolysis) and for 30 min or more she explained and talked me through all the details to help me make the best decision. She was the sweetest and I just felt so comfortable. We went over the pricing (which was way more affordable then I was expecting) and all the little details so nothing blind sided me and I booked the appointment then. The beauty of this place is you only pay for what you need! No contracts, no huge amounts of money, just what you what. I really wish I would have found this place earlier, I would have saved a lot of money actually!

To finish my story I went for my first visit. Kathy, the owner of LCO, went into great detail about hair follicles, sun exposure, skin, and how laser works. She made me feel very comfortable and again everything was on the table so there were no catches I didn’t know about. Needless to say my first visit was such a success for my face. I only needed one laser session and then Lauren just did a little electrolysis for some light or white hairs. My armpits are a night and day difference. I got a second laser treatment on them which is totally normal. Typically one would get about 6 treatments on dense hair areas. However after 1 treatment I was shocked at how little hair I had left!

This place is a miracle worker!!! I will continue to go back for multiple different areas because the results are amazing!!! I have been telling all of my girl and guy friends about this place because it really does work that good and it will not break your bank!

Call them and talk to Lauren if you are unsure. If you have hair in areas you are embarrassed about, get those nasty hairs taken care of so you can enjoy your beautiful skin!

Thank you LCO for helping me!!! I am a very...

I thought long and hard , I’m talking months before I decided to share my experience. The only reason I decided to finally share is so someone else like me doesn’t have to experience what I did; when I went to a different establishment that provides the same service and did not receive the same experience and treatment. I did research, and just like everyone else I saw the glowing reviews about this business and I am giving the business 2 stars because of the results I did receive from the laser hair removal treatments. Kathy, the owner is experienced at what she does as she has been doing it for a very long time. I cannot deny that. however, I must comment on the demeaning way Kathy spoke to me and made me feel before, during and even until my very last treatment, which actually caused me to walk out without receiving service . Laser hair removal is painful, and unpleasant and expensive, too expensive may I add. For the amount of money I was spending, I feel the person doing the treatment could also afford to be more mindful of their customers. I was made to feel like something was wrong with me during my first consultation with Kathy, even though I informed her many times I had my hormones checked and I had ultrasounds to check for cysts. I did not appreciate the way I was spoken to in our sessions following, which had I known better I would have left after the consultation. I did not appreciate how I was treated when my face broke out into bumps during treatments. Even though she did text me back when I contacted her and tried to explain to her that the bumps were from irritation from the laser, based off my own research and my experience in healthcare, I was told “well, you’ll just have to deal with it, as long as we’re killing hairs that’s what matters”. I even expressed discomfort during a session in which she expressed her liking a certain setting better since treatments were working and my hairs were thinner, I was told with disgust, that she liked that setting better but she would put it back to the old setting since I couldn’t tolerate it. A different session, she offered to stop 1/2 way through, even though I had gotten half my face done already but was experiencing discomfort. I am here to let everyone know that Kathy is a master of her craft, so much so, that she doesn’t listen to her clients. There are options out there and maybe there weren’t many 30 years ago, but we don’t have to “just deal” with something that makes us...

Three years ago I went to one of the large chain laser hair removal places for a consultation and after they took a quick look they determined my hair was a mix of light and dark and they'd only be able to get the dark hair, which would leave me paying thousands of dollars for "some" hair to be gone. I left incredibly discouraged and disappointed that I had a life full of shaving/waxing/sugaring in store.

Recently, I started looking into if there was any way at all for laser to work with blonde hair which lead me to calling Laser Center of Orlando to see if they might be able to help. I got Lauren on the phone and she was so incredibly sweet and knowledgeable! She mentioned that they get a lot of people who are told from other places that they can't be done and they're able to do successfully do laser on them and suggested electrolysis as a backup option so I figured it wouldn't hurt to schedule a consultation.

Michael at the front desk was so welcoming and kind and my consultation with Cathy left me feeling so excited! She took so much time with me today going over her impressive history and experience, how it works, pricing, and answering all of my questions. When she went to take a look to see if it was possible to do my "light" hair, she did something that my earlier consult elsewhere didn't...she looked at my hair with a magnifying glass which revealed it was dark! When I asked if it would be possible to get pricing to just do one thigh she looked at me as if I was crazy and asked "why would you want to do that?" so I explained my one thigh couldn't be done due to my tattoo which is what I had been told before. She took a look and said I could absolutely do my thigh, they would just laser around the tattoo and the price reflected that as well! Crazy concept!

Cathy is a perfectionist who takes the time to make sure that everything is individualized for each person instead of applying a "one size fits most" method that leaves so many of us thinking we're out of luck or leaving with shoddy results after investing so much time and money! I haven't even started my treatments yet (and I'll update my review to include that later) but already my experience has been amazing so I had to share in case anyone is trying to decide...
