How much does it cost?

well i actually just went for a consultation on this a couple months back. apparently it is permanent. although if you get pregnant or have any major hormone changes some hair could grow back but it would not be as thick as it is currently. where i went it is a couple hundred bucks for an hour of treatment, which will cover a lot of ground. you have to go every four weeks and at least three times. so i do think it is expensive but i’m totally considering it b/c i hate my facial hair.

I want to laser hair remove my back hair. I’ve had enough of waxing it. Will laser Hair Removal treatment remove the hair permanently?

Yes…

It takes approx 6 treatments to permanently remove the hair forever because the hair grows in 3 different stages, after that it’ll be like the hair was never there =)

Laser hair removal on upper lip. how to hide it from growing back?

admin — Sun, 11 Apr 2010 23:00:48 +0000

I’m 15 and I went for my first session of laser Hair Removal on my upper lip almost a week ago. It’s already growing back and you can see like little dots appearing. It makes me exreeemely self-conscious. Is there any way I can hide the small hairs and dots?
And I’m also wondering how many treatments it will take for there to be no more hair growing back RIGHT away… and this thick… well… "thick"
If anyone could answer these questions and maybe explain a little I’d be reaaalllyyy greatful haha.
thanks.

It takes about a month for the hair to fallout then you’ll have smooth skin for a little while

Okay… science answer:

You grow in at least 80% of your hair during puberty. When you have laser hair removal the hairs it kills will never grow again. But you still have up to 20% of your normal thickness that will grow in throughout the rest of your life. So people get touch up sessions every 3-5 years after their big 6 treatments. You need about 6 treatments, one each 2 months for a year, because the hair grows in different stages and it can only kill hair in the active growth stage. The laser works by targeting dark color (the hair follicle) and passing through light color (the skin) the hair and skin have to be very different shades of color for the hair to work. The darker and coarser the hair and lighter the skin, the better results you will have.

Okay… Personal Experience:

I’ve had 3 out of my 6 treatments so far. It HURTS! It’s like being poked with a sewing needle over and over, but it’s not as painful as a tattoo, and that’s not as painful as childbirth, maybe that can put the pain in perspective for you =) I’ve had my legs, underarms, and bikini area done. When you get your bikini area done they do ALL of it! Including spreading your butt and vaginal lips apart to laser all the cracks… It’s sorta awkward. After the 3 treatments I’ve had so far I’ve lost about 60% of leg hair, 80% bikini hair, and 80% underarms hair. It’s because the underarms hair is the thinnest and the leg hair is the coarsest. But the legs are the most painful. The more it hurts the better it works.
I spent this much for 6 treatments in each area:
Bikini-$750
Underarms-$750
Legs (toes to bikini)-$2,500

Do you think I should get laser hair removal for my lower back?

When I get in a bathing suit I feel like everyone is staring at my lower back, thinking "ew she’s hairy" or "she needs to shave"….how can you shave what’s behind you? -.-
it’s not an insane patch of gorilla hair or anything… if it was, i wouldn’t ever be in a bathing suit in the first place. I asked my friend if she noticed when we went to a water park together and she nodded and told me yes…..though i usually was first waiting in line on the stairs so my butt was kind of in her face XDD…haha soorryy
but really, should leave it how it is or should I try to look into laser Hair Removal?

Yes, no one likes a yeti.

If I have high testosterone levels, should I still perform laser hair removal?

admin — Fri, 02 Apr 2010 19:01:27 +0000

More specifically, is it wise to spend that much on it, because with high testosterone levels it may grow back more easily, am I correct?

I am a male, and 20 years old, medium brown skin, and dark hair. I want to remove hair on my back and shoulders through laser Hair Removal. Thanks.

Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) & Insulin like Growth Factor (IGF) levels are more predictive of body hair growth than testosterone itself. However, if you have thick body hair that quickly regrows after shaving, you probably have a good amount of DHT &/or IGF.

Talk to a bodybuilder who competes- he could address your question from a similar vantagepoint.
