How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

To be fair, I should have mentioned that my experience occurred many years ago when the technology was still new. Perhaps there have been advances in technology or technique. My advice to anyone considering laser hair removal would be to ask a lot of questions, especially worst case scenario questions. That will keep you from being disappointed. Good luck!

I used laser hair removal to address facial hair, but it wasn't very effective and the results were not permanent. I completed all of the treatments recommended by the dermatologist.  However, less than a year later, most of the hair came back.  It is important to know the laser does not work on all hair.  Unless there are significant advances in technology, the laser won't even reduce light brown or blond hair. Somehow the laser targets/sees the dark hair and doesn't see light brown or blond hairs. In my case, it definitely was not worth it. Perhaps I would have had better results if the hair I wanted removed had been close to black.
