Be it the face or the body, for centuries, silky-smooth skin is every girl's ultimate goal. A well-hydrated skin is not enough to be classified as a silky-smooth skin due to the hair that runs through the body. In order to achieve praises and jaw-dropping stares, every strand of hair on the face and body must go because body hair signifies masculine rather than feminine.

Though being hair-free on every part of the body is still a debate, there are certain body parts that a girl has to be hairless in order to avoid awkward stares and judgment. Yes, you guessed it right, it is the underarms.

No doubt, there are numerous ways to achieve hair-free body since it has been more than a century-long practice. Where the commonly used and cheap methods are such as shaving, waxing, and cream removal. These methods are just temporary aids that DO NOT make the underarms look any softer or smoother. In fact, the majority of these methods will only make the treated area worst when it is used for long-term. Issues arise, to name a few, would be a rough surface, dry skin, burned marks, black spots, ingrown hair that makes us one-step further from achieving silky-smooth skin. Thankfully, we live in the 21st century, where there's the existence of semi-permanent hair removal that lasts up to 2-5years such as Intensed Pulse Light (IPL).

And because it is the 21st century, IPL isn't the only semi-permanent hair removal that exists in the market. There's SCC and there's Sumuzu Hair Removal (aka KooLite).

In short, Sumuzu is not similar to IPL. The treatment is a lot faster, safer and to top it off, it tightens and whitens the skin and removes body odour.

I got the chance to test them out for 3 sessions and here's the result!

PRE-TRIAL

Aftermath of shaving and countless of waxing

Before the trial, I was informed to shave my underarms and not wax it before coming by which is different from IPL.

FIRST TRIAL

Cooling Gel is applied before treatment begins

On the 1st trial, a consultation will take place to ensure that all customers are not having any sort of skin condition that prevents them from undergoing the treatment. After that, I was brought into the treatment room where they explain the steps and procedures to the treatment. Next, they apply a cooling gel on my underarm and then comes the machine! Shockingly, it hurts. Though it was bearable but the pain was unexpected as I went in with my mindset that I would not feel a single thing. The consultant decreased the intensity and assured me that it is normal to feel a little pain during the first trial due to the melanins on my skin and it should be all better at the next session. In less than 5 minutes, the treatment was over. When I got off the treatment bed and look at the mirror, damn...my underarm was striking a tomato red skin (didn't snapped a picture because I was too darn worried) and honestly, I was really worried that I might be experiencing side effects that they have not encounter but the consultant was really calm about it. She informed me that the redness should go away in an hour of two and if it does not, all I need to do was apply cold towel on it. Thankfully, after a day of discomfort, the redness subside and it was all good.

After the treatment, I only shaved my underarm twice for the whole month and I was good to go. The results were extremely fast as there was less hair growth. Best part, I no longer need to put on a deodorant.

SECOND TRIAL

The procedure is the same except for consultation as it's only needed for the first trial. I was extremely scared of having to go through the same discomfort again. It doesn't hurt as bad as waxing but the discomfort lingers for a long time. Shockingly, it didn't hurt and neither did I experience the same redness that I had on the first trial.


Sumuzu treatment has a few levels of intensity. 6 - strong to 9 - mild depending on the customer's skin sensitivity. They will start with level 7 and only reduces the intensity if the customer is not able to bear with the discomfort and increases it gradually on the next visit as the higher the intensity, the better the results.

After 2nd session

After the 2nd trial, I only shaved once and that was right before the next session.

AFTER THIRD TRIAL

The pain was non-existent and my underarm was as fair as I never thought I could achieve. I was truly delighted by the fact that I no longer need to shave or wax and I generally don't need to use deodorants anymore. It has been two months since my 3rd trial. The hair has become a lot finer.

After 3rd session

I am truly satisfied with the results and I am extremely happy for the fact that I can wear sleeveless clothes throughout the entire month without the need to schedule for my next wax session or shave it while having visible black dots from afar.

VERDICT

This is highly recommended for those who is looking for a fast and least commitment required treatment to achieve a hairless and fair underarm, or any other parts of your body. The number of sessions required is subjective thus, it is advisable to get in touch with them and head in for a consultation before starting the treatment.
