Skin Care Review: Vaniqua (hair removal)

Rating
Good

Benefits
Daily tweezing reduced to twice weekly.

Drawbacks
the twice daily applications, waiting 5 minutes before applying make up/moisturisor

Details
After many years of suffering the embarrassment of facial hair and having tried numerous remedies including hormonial medication I went back to my doctor who referred me to the dematology department in our local hospital. I expressed an interest in being treated with Vaniqua as I'd seen a sucess sorry on a news itm on the T.V. I was prescribed Vaniqua cream to reduce facial hair growth. 2 months of twice daily application of a pleasant and ordourless cream has given me 60% reduction in regrowth. In the first 2 weeks I had acne type spots,which soon disappeared. The combination of less hair removal interventions and the emolliant effect of the cream means that my skin is appear less scarred from previous daily hair removal leaving my complexion with a beneficial glow.

Conclusions
Strongly recommend, significant improvement, nominal side effects.
