Why isn't laser hair removal working for me?

zuber
I have very dark this hair and my skin is very white. I'm of middle eastern decent. I've been doing laser hair removal for a while (a few years) but the hair keeps growing back. I know its supposed to be permanent hair reduction but the results are not very good. I've switched to a local company because the last place I was getting laser hair removal done wasn't so good and they went out of business. Could there be an underlying medical problem?
