Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I am a 24 year old male. I have hairs all over my body. I need a natural way to permanently remove them at least from my back, arms, neck and shoulders. Will laser help?

Answered by Dr. Sadaf Mustafa

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com. There are two different procedures available for hair removal: electrolysis and laser-based hair removal. Electrolysis involves treating each hair root individually and can be painful. However, it often leads to permanent hair loss after the first session. On the other hand, laser-based hair removal is a less invasive and less painful option. It may require a few sessions to achieve complete hair removal. Consider discussing both options with your specialist to determine which one suits you best.
