A 31-year-old beautician named Sannah Sohail, who spent over Rs 2 lakh on a botched laser hair removal treatment has said that the ordeal "stopped her feeling like a woman".

Sannah said that she went to a famous clinic for hair removal treatment in 2018 but the whole procedure left her bitterly disappointed. According to Sannah, the hair removal treatment left her looking like she had "hormonal issues".

The beautician said thta after undergoing eight of the costly treatments, she was surprised to find that her hair was "much longer" than before and a cyst had developed beneath her skin.

Talking to Liverpool Echo, Sannah said, "I got a cyst, they offered me to see a doctor who confirmed that it was a cyst. They told me I'd need to see a private doctor to remove it and promised me to provide it - the cyst removal was never provided."

Sannah blamed the clinic of not offering her proper care advice after the treatment and this affected her skin. The beautician got so disapppointed with the botched hair removal treatment that she started doing research into the treatment.

Sannah bought a diode machine and launched her own private clinic.

The cosmetic practitioner said: "They don't warn you how to look after your skin, just [tell you to use] aloe. They don't tell you not to wear leggings or underwear, tight clothing can aggravate it. Now I'm scared to wear tight clothes in case it brings the cyst back. It stops you from feeling like a female - I'm afraid to get too hot in case it brings it back, I don't wear jeans anymore because of it."

She added: "They deceived me out of £2,200 for eight sessions that made my hair grow thicker. You would've thought I had hormonal issues. They allow you to think it's your fault, women who come for this treatment are already self-conscious about [their hair growth]. You worry that you're the problem."
