As a woman in my 60s, i need to get rid of stray facial hair on my lip and chin. I want a permanent removal but find electrolyisis too painful. Would laser be less sore? i dont need a lot, just a few short sessions.

Hi


Laser is quite painful. Although I found it less painful than electrolosis. One thing to bear in mind, you say you would only need a few short sessions - laser doesn't work like that. As a general rule, due to how hair grows, you will need around 6 sessions regardless of how much hair you have. So when places quote prices that generally will be for just one session. Reputable places will do a skin/patch test first, which will ensure your hair type/skin is suitable for laser and will also give you a 'taste' as to how painful it really is.
