If you think laser is painless.... then I can dispell that! It is very painful to get done. It's like hundreds of elastic bands being "flicked" onto you.

But if you get the right laser machine/operator - and have a number of treatments - it can be permanent hair removal.

It takes many treatments on the same area to be effective. Some people think it's just one treatment and it's done. Nahhhhh....
Should be about 6 treatments.... but I've known people to have 20 treatments and their hair is still growing back!

So if you do consider getting it done - make sure that you do so by recommendation of someone who has got effective results.

There are a lot of beauty salons getting machines which are really not effective.
There are a lot of 'laser clinics' that are not effective either.

I can't recommend any particular centre - so just do lots of research and get a personal recommendation before going anywhere.
