Nina's Story: The Heart and Soul of Nina L'Allure

If you were to ask me to share my life story when I first moved from England back to Canada, I would have hesitated to tell the world about my challenges. Coming from a conservative South Asian, especially Punjabi culture, certain life decisions are often met with judgment.

Now, with over 20 years of experience and personal growth, I am proud to share my journey in the hope of empowering all women and small business owners who think there is no hope or that it's too hard to be an entrepreneur. 

In the beginning…

I was born in India, and while we were not a wealthy family, we were educated. My family moved to Canada when I was 17. Moving to another country often means starting over to create a better life. You are immersed in a new culture and learn how other people think and live.

I attended Humber College for Business Administration and excelled in the course, but I was young and lacked self-confidence, which made it challenging to approach people and interview for jobs. I eventually landed a good job in retail, and through hard work and long hours, I bought my first property in Mississauga when I was 25. For the next few years, I worked in a couple of places, but I felt I wasn’t reaching my full potential.

Even though I questioned where I was in life and the decisions I had made, I later realized that my experiences, though challenging, would lead to positive outcomes.

Dreams to Reality

In 2001, I sold my home and moved to the UK. The first few years were challenging. I wanted to look my best for my wedding and enrolled in holistic therapies and skin care programs. What I discovered was that human anatomy and dealing with hair and skin conditions had always been my passion.

I enrolled at the West Thames College London, England, and received the following diplomas and degrees.

• Diploma in Electrolysis,

• Medical Aesthetics, 

• Anatomy Physiology and Massage, 

• Aromatherapy, 

• Reflexology, 

• Colon Hydrotherapy

• Lasers (Hair Removal, Tattoo Removal, Photo Rejuvenation)

Through the years of never giving up, I became an expert in the beauty field. My friends often referred to me as a Skin Nerd! Coming to the realization that the work begins within and beauty also begins within, changed my perception and brought me success in both my personal and professional life.

After working in the beauty industry as an electrologist and holistic therapist at the prestigious Bond Street, London, England Salons, I found my niche in lasers and advanced skin care treatments. It is quite an honour to be referred to as a Laser Guru/Skin Specialist.

I was invited to write many articles and was a guest speaker for many national and international magazines and radio programs. I also had a TV show in the UK called Nina L’Allure Live, which covered health and beauty issues. 

It has been a privilege to work not just in London England but in Mumbai, Delhi and the Midlands in the United Kingdom.

While in England, I had the pleasure of collaborating with Dr. Schrammek – the world-renowned brand for pigmentation, acne, and scarring skin conditions.

My Journey to Entrepeneur

As I mentioned before, life had its challenges and one was my divorce. After long litigation in the UK, all I wanted to do was to come back to Canada to have a fresh start for myself and my two boys. The first 2 years here in Canada were not that easy. I worked for a plastic surgeon, Med Spas and Fast Food Restaurants, where I did everything and anything to survive working 18 hour days. 

From 2012-2017, I ran an Academy of Laser Science/Skin Care in the UK and continued to offer the Certificate Program in Burlington, Ontario when I relocated in 2018 and became an entrepreneur and opened my own business, Nina L'Allure for Laser Hair Removal. 

I am proud to say I have done over 60,000 skin and laser treatments that include many A-List Celebrities and have established myself as a Skin Care Therapist/Educator/Laser Guru in the beauty industry.

At the beginning of 2024 I opened my sister company Laser Skin Pro & Aesthetics to focus on offering facial treatments to people suffering from various skin conditions and those who are looking to enhance and revitalize their skin.

Currently, I provide Laser Hair Removal treatments for women and men in my clinic Nina L’Allure Laser Hair Removal in Burlington, Ontario and Laser Facials and Medi Spa Services at my sister clinic Laser Skin Pro at the same location. 

I am also working on developing a Podcast where I will be talking about many topics from skin concerns to motivation and inspiration and look forward to sharing interviews with a diverse selection of inspiring people and professionals in different skin and beauty businesses.

My goal moving forward is to share my passion internationally on how to take care of yourself from the inside out and lead by example by balancing personal self care with providing the best skin care options for both women and men.

What to Expect During Your First Visit

Feeling a bit apprehensive is normal if you've never had laser hair removal before. Here are a few points that will put your mind at ease.

• Consultation and Patch Test: During your initial consultation, we'll discuss your goals and medical history to ensure laser hair removal is proper for you. We'll also perform a quick patch test on a small area to see how your skin reacts to the laser.

• Treatment Process: The treatment itself is relatively quick and painless. Most sessions take anywhere from a few minutes to an hour, depending on the size of the area being treated. You may feel a slight tingling sensation, but most clients find it very tolerable.

• Aftercare Guidance: After your session, we'll provide detailed aftercare instructions to help you achieve the best results and keep your skin feeling smooth and beautiful. This is an essential part of achieving success with your treatment.

Myths About Laser Hair Removal – Debunked!

"Laser Hair Removal Is Painful." Thanks to advanced technology and our expert techniques, most clients describe the sensation as mild tingling or snapping, much less painful than waxing.

"It Only Works on Certain Skin Types." At Nina L'Allure, our advanced lasers are effective on a wide range of skin tones and hair types. We customize each treatment to ensure optimal results.

"It's Too Expensive." Think of laser hair removal as an investment in yourself. Laser hair removal can be more cost-effective in the long run when you add up the time and money spent on waxing or shaving over the years.

Preparing for a Laser Hair Removal Session

Preparing for a Laser Hair Removal session is an important step in ensuring a smooth and successful treatment. Before your appointment, it's essential to follow a few key guidelines to ensure the best possible outcome.

Avoid any sun exposure or tanning for at least 4-6 weeks prior to your treatment. The laser targets the melanin in the hair follicles, and excessive sun exposure can increase the melanin content in the skin, potentially leading to complications or uneven results. It's best to avoid waxing, plucking, or tweezing the hair in the treatment area for at least 2-4 weeks before your appointment, so the laser has the ability to target the hair follicles effectively.

Another important step in Preparing for Laser Hair Removal is to shave the treatment area two to three days before your treatment to ensure that unwanted hair does not have time to grow back and that your skin is not experiencing increased sensitivity from the razor. It's a good idea to avoid applying any lotions, creams, or makeup to the treatment area on the day of your appointment, as these can interfere with the laser's ability to penetrate the skin effectively.

Finally, communicate any concerns or questions you may have with Nina during the initial consultation. This will help to tailor the treatment plan to your specific needs and ensure that you feel comfortable and informed throughout the entire process.

What to Expect during a Laser Hair Removal Session

You may want to wear loose-fitting clothing since your skin may feel a little sensitive following the treatment, and having clothing constantly rubbing against it will be uncomfortable and potentially painful.

During a laser hair removal session, you can expect a relatively quick and straightforward procedure, with minimal discomfort. The treatment typically begins with thoroughly cleansing the treatment area to ensure optimal laser absorption and skin protection.

Once the area is prepared, Nina will apply a cooling gel or use a specialized cooling device to help soothe and protect the skin during the treatment. The laser device is then carefully positioned and activated, emitting a concentrated beam of light that targets the melanin in the hair follicles. You may feel a slight stinging or snapping sensation as the laser pulses, but this discomfort is generally tolerable and subsides quickly.

Throughout the treatment, Nina will monitor your skin and adjust the laser settings as needed to ensure optimal results and safety. The cooling systems built into the laser device also help to minimize any potential discomfort or side effects, keeping you comfortable during the procedure.

Depending on the size of the treatment area, a single laser hair removal session can range from 15 minutes to an hour. Once the treatment is complete, Nina will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to ensure the best possible results and a smooth recovery process.

Aftercare and Maintenance for Laser Hair Removal

Laser Hair Removal Aftercare

After a laser hair removal session, it's essential to follow the provided aftercare instructions to ensure the best possible results and a smooth recovery process. Immediately following the treatment, the treated area may appear slightly red and swollen, which is a normal and expected response to the laser's energy. To help soothe any discomfort, clients are advised to apply a cool compress or aloe vera gel to the area.

Over the next few days, it's important to avoid any excessive sun exposure or strenuous activities that may cause sweating or irritation to the treated area. Refrain from using any harsh skincare products or exfoliants, as the skin may be more sensitive during the healing process. 

Products

It is important to have the best products for post procedure care to ensure optimal results in healing. Nina L’Allure is proud to be a partner with AlumierMD and offer this skincare line to our clients. We recommend Recovery Balm, EverActive Serum and always a Broad Spectrum Sunscreen. You can SHOP ONLINE and continue to have the product delivered directly to your door. 

As the skin heals, you may notice some shedding or "peeling" of the treated hair, which is a normal part of the hair growth cycle. It's important not to pick or scratch at this shedding, as it can lead to irritation or potential scarring. Instead, allow the hair to shed naturally, which typically takes 1-2 weeks after the treatment.

Laser Hair Removal Maintenance

Maintenance for laser hair removal is essential to achieve the best possible long-term results. Most clients require a series of 4-6 treatments, spaced 4-8 weeks apart, to achieve optimal hair reduction. It's important to adhere to the recommended treatment schedule and follow any additional instructions provided to ensure the most effective and long-lasting results.
