I have ruined my skin from a place in Woodbridge so I know how you feel. Electrolysis is the road for me. I wish lasers were banned.

Sorry to add a comment but thermolysis is not the right method to use. In rare occasions you can use it for the finist and lightest hairs. Otherwise you will only be treating the hair with heat and not lye. please careful as you will be wasting your money if it is used on dark hairs.

Yes it can!!! If the area is not fried enough it can stimulate hair growth especially if the settings are too low. Many people will notice more hair growth once they stop their sessions. Not to worry you are not going crazy it is the laser industry that is crazy.

Please DO NOT EVER EVER laser especially your face. I worked at a laser clinic for a few years. The crook who owned it stole from her clients and to this day I feel so bad to know that those clients not only were stolen from, but they damaged their skin. I was the woman's ginney pig as she would tell me that laser is good for the skin. I was new I did not know any better till I studied it on my own.Well thank goodness I do not work there anymore as I have educated myself enough to know that there are NO UNBIASED STUDIES to even discuss laser. Doctors pay a few laser engineers to put together a machine, remember they want to make money and then the public is brain washed. They think a doctor created it so it must be good. No offense to a doctor but I take great offense for my face has been damaged without ever being able to repair the skin. The amount of heat projected into the skin is like you frying your face in the sun on a very hot day and then they cool the area, no kidding for they have to extract the heat from the skin as it truly is cooking in the dermis and subcutaneous layers of the skin. The crook I worked for was just north of Toronto in a tiny hole in the wall. Her plot was to be in a walk in clinic so she could call it a Medi Spa. Another tactic to fool people. Lasers have no true studies so please save your skin as once it is ruined you cannot EVER REPAIR IT. Find a reputable electrologist as there are few but if lady luck likes you and you find one, you will notice the hair growth slowing down after each session as there are 3 methods and most use the wrong one to gain repeat business the method that works, works very quickly. I wish you a great electrologist and no lasers. Good Luck
