is laser hair removal one session? how does the price of that compare to electrolysis?
i've had six sessions of laser on my face and chest and a lot of hair is seemingly gone for good, unless you pay attention to it being a bit patchy you can't really tell i've had any treatment
my skin is very fair, but my bodyhair is lightbrown to blonde so it could have been more effective, six sessions cost me about $700 (a pass over my face and chest each session)
I was also supressing my T at the time so I had less active hair follicles generally (to my understanding)
i'm not the op but this was my experience, I wouldn't get more laser in a hurry due to the expense.
it was fun watching hairs fall while I had it done at least
thanks for the info! i might go for this once im a year into taking E
No form of hair removal is "one and done forever" and I cant stress that enough
The pace of electrolysis is slower, but has a vastly higher follicle kill rate compared to laser. So it might be more efficient in the long run, but thats on a case by case basis.
Some folks might find that having a lot of laser sessions accomplishes virtually nothing, some folks will find that it gets them to the goal line. Every body is different
thanks!
