The candela Alexandrite Laser for Multiple Areas - Philadelphia

You look amazing! I can't believe it only took one treatment to see such dramatic changes! I have a few dark/ sun spots on my face and I was told that it would take at least 2-3 treatments, spaced a month apart to see anything. I'm very optimistic now :)

What I mean to say is that I might not be able to keep the 90% reduction, but there will always be a lot less than from what I started with. It's like the same thing with stained teeth getting teeth whitening and asking if its permanent. What really happens is the teeth are whitened and from that day on forward, it kind of depends on the individual... They might drink coffee and have certain staining habits that might lead them to have slightly darker teeth a year after they were whitened and some people might decide to brush their teeth three times a day with light whitening toothpaste and get healthier consumption habits that make the results last longer... Of course laser hair removal results lasts longer, but I think you might get the idea....

Well, they call it permanent reduction because I will definitely have less hair than what I started with forever or at least a very long time, but certain things can make it grow back like hormonal changes such as menopause (I have a good 30 years for that), certain meds such as testosterone or anabolic steroids, and I've even heard that having tumors or being very overweight might increase body hair.

Ok, thanks for the welcome kirsty!

Why can't I edit my original post? Plus, I accidentally submitted an update twice... How do you delete posts or updates?? Also, can you make this forum more visible? I'm sure if people could find it or knew it existed, it would be much fuller.
