Im a 24 year old from london and very distressed about my facial hair. i have to admit I cant say I've tried everything but what i have tried is the following epilight. Thats an intense pulsed light which apparently destroys the hair from the root. Well I was on this treatment for 18 months and the hair grew back infact it stimulated new growth :( So i decided to go for laser which is different to IPL as it does damge the hair from the root and some permanent hair reduction is seen well thats what they say. I got my first treatment yesterday and it wasnt painful at all. i jus hope it works. Is there anyone thats taken laser treatment. The laser treatment is called NG:YAG polaris. I hope to hear from soemone soon. Also has anyone been on any different treatments ie vaniqa?
