A laser is a like a Zamboni for the skin, buffing it smooth so skin cells can play unimpeded pick-up hockey matches with food crumbs. For $99, today's Groupon gets you six laser hair-removal treatments in one area of your hirsute self from Glow Medical Spa and Salon, a value of up to $805. You can buy multiple Groupons to treat friends, family, and cold-sensitive enemies to bare beauteousness, or combine them to combat larger portions of your shaggy exterior, like your legs or stomach. An appointment is always required.
Glow's hair-despising pulse laser terminates unwanted hair quickly, comfortably, and safely using potent handcrafted photons that harmlessly pass through the skin and directly impact hair follicles for long-lasting hairlessness. Technicians can evict pesky hair from the underarms, eyebrow, ears, neck, bikini line, chin, upper lip, and pancreas. Or, by combining Groupons, full arms (3 Groupons), upper legs (2), lower legs (2), full leg (4), man back (4), full stomach (3), full Brazilian (2), and full face (2). A laser technician is on hand to administer treatments, and lasers are calibrated for empathy and small talk.
Part clean-cut doctor's office and part sleek spa, Glow's Irving location comes fully equipped to handle any hair emergency. The experienced and highly trained technicians at Glow can treat patients with a variety of skin and hair types, but results may vary depending on skin tone and the character of your hair. These professional laser whisperers will be happy to consult you on how many treatments it will take to achieve results that will leave you less wind resistant and more difficult to pin in professional wrestling matches.

Glow Medical Spa and Salon
When thinning out her eyebrows as a young woman, Saima Bukhari discovered something surprising: she was pretty good at this whole beauty thing. Soon, she was helping her friends improve their looks, a passion that would lead her to stints as a Lancôme makeup artist and student at Toni & Guy Hairdressing Academy. She opened Glow Medical Spa and Salon with her husband, using her University of Cincinnati education to help share her talents with the public. Together with her staff, she manages wily heads with custom haircuts and styling, including coloring and full and partial highlights for men and women. When not busy culling body hair with waxing and laser hair removal, staffers expand their relaxation services to the whole body during mani-pedis, facials, and five different massage modalities. They also administer dermal fillers and injections to reverse the signs of aging, and tighten skin with the FDA-approved SmartLipo system.
Inside Glow, crystal chandeliers droop down to illuminate rich wooden floors, blending with natural sunlight, a welcoming fireplace, and flickering candles to bathe visitors in soothing rays. A comfy waiting room replete with tea cookies and pastries showcases the salon's products from brands such as Éminence Organic Skin Care and Bumble and bumble. Inspirational messages pepper the decor, with decorative signs reminding visitors to "glow," "dream," and "don't store extra bubblegum in hair."
