Does the laser removal actually remove hair permanently and is it safe?

And does it hurt?

My wife has been getting laser done for years. It can remove the entire follicle (this is ideal) but it depends on the pigment and some other factors. Other times it'll just burn the top layer which will grow back.

Wife no longer needs laser in some areas, but still needs some in others but there is less. No issues otherwise.

I just had laser hair removal. The doc said he got all the hair but he said some of it may grow back over time. It has been about 6 weeks out and so far so good.

No side effects like cancer causing or anything?

No, it is done with a laser connected through a fiber optic cable. In the old days they did it with a hot wire but the laser can go deeper beneath the skin and zaps the follicles

It's not safe at all.

Costs a lot of money and you also have to go back for multiple treatments.

Fun.

Ever hear of the razor that is actually a lazor that they sell in stores?
