Laser Hair Removal is the quickest, safest and most ultimately most cost effective means for long term hair reduction available. Factors that influence treatment times include the area treated, size of the individual, the laser utilized, the expertise of the operator, and the patient's tolerance. Very little advances in the actual technology of laser hair removal has occurred over the last 10 years--- with most newer systems offering more power, larger spot (treatment) sizes and quicker repetition rates, all which allow for a quicker treatment time.
Laser Hair Removal can be quick as under 1 minute (for the upper lip) to an average of 30 minutes (or more) for a large back.
