Laser Hair Removal - Palomar Icon, YAG or Candela?

sjorlando
I am interested in laser hair removal on my bikini area. I have consulted with 3 Dr. in my area. I am confused as which laser would be best suited for my type 3 skin. There is a large price difference between the 3 lasers & wanted to seek input from the forum. I am not opposed to spending more but if I can get the same results by spending less that would be ideal. By the way the Candela is the most expensive and the Palomar the least expensive. Thank you in advance.
