Does laser hair removal not work on some body parts?

Asked By:realselfuser2564 in Ma'an Governorate, Jordan

I astarted doing laser hair removal around 3 months ago, and when I first went to my consulting session I was told that very smooth hair (around shoulders and upper arms, around the upper stomach, etc) cannot be treated with laser, and that it may have negative consequences later on and would be my own responsibility. I don't get it, is that really the case? Why? I really want to get these parts done, but I am too scared, what are the actual implications?
