And if so, what should the technician consider doing? Is more energy wise? She uses a light sheer diode device and has warned me that trying laser hair removal could stimulate even more hair growth. Is it worth the risk?

Answer: Dark hair Thank you for your photo. That area appears that it will respond well to diode laser hair removal. The procedure only takes a few minutes but you should expect to have multiple treatments over several months to remove all the hair. Hope this helps! Johnson C.

Answer: Laser Hair Removal I would agree your are a good candidate for laser hair removal. The darker the hair and the lighter the skin the better the result. It is true the thicker the hair the better the results, but with you hair you should be able to get a minimum of a 50 percent result and likely better with 6-8 treatments space 6-8 weeks apart. I would use a diode or alexandrite laser for best results, your skin looks to be on the lighter side per the picture. Of course your in person consultation is going to give you the best opinion.
