Laser hair removal has been around for a while but it's still evolving. Electrolysis is painful and all other hair removal options are temporary. Lasers go beneath the skin's surface to target the hair follicle. The hair then goes into a dormant state. Doctors use different laser wavelengths depending on the patient's skin type. Because of the varying techniques used, it's important to find a skilled practitioner to perform your laser hair removal.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Find laser hair removal clinics in your area. Look in your phone book or online for listings.

  2. Step 2

    Ask a friend for the name of their practitioner. If they've had laser hair removal and liked the clinic, they would be a good referral source.

  3. Step 3

    Call a few clinics and ask if they give free consultations. Most do.

  4. Step 4

    Schedule an appointment with at least three clinics. You want to be able to choose the practitioner based on their personality, the treatment plan and price.

  5. Step 5

    Tell the practitioner where on your body you want laser hair removal, how well your skin tans, whether you're taking medications and what color the hair is that you want removed. All these things play a role in your treatment.

  6. Step 6

    Make a plan to get the laser hair removal treatment done. Make sure you know the treatment plan before starting the sessions.
