LASER HAIR REMOVAL PAIN FACTOR About the same as waxing—feels like

being snapped by a hot elastic band.

COST Varies. Because hair grows in cycles and there needs to be a hair in the follicle for the laser to target, expect to require no fewer than four sessions but sometimes up to six. Be wary of “deals”—these are often for lower-power lasers that require more sessions, and those add up quickly.

BENEFIT Once your treatments are done, you may never have to think about hair removal again.
