I did 2 sessions and I am happy enough with the difference that I won’t be doing another session. You can still see my PPP, but they are much less profound now. For the most part, it wasn’t painful, but towards the end of a session, I started to feel the numbing cream wear off, but there was enough time to do the job before it became an issue. It took about 5 days for it to heal to a point where it was no longer uncomfortable. But over anything else, it works. It does what it says, so I am very happy with the purchase and the product.
