Wow I went for a consult on my arms and a few other parts it's $500 per-arm, per-sessions!! Does not include anything else. How cruel! I got in my car and cried! It would be worth it if the hair was not going to come back. I look at my arms and just want to rip the hairy skin off...grrrr


The lard theory is looking better and better...

Ouch!! That's insane. My dermatologist here charges $235 a session and it's like 25min sessions. I would keep checking around.

I meant to try that lard thingy but I forgot.

I went for a treatment walked out paying $260 but not for the arms. Testing to see if this works before I dip into my savings. I did call a few other places some prices where still high but not as bad. Bad office hours and everyone has a different laser. Then some places won't do laser treatments in July and Aug because of the sun. I would sign a contract saying I'd walk with a sunbrella if it ment I could have treatments in July/Aug. Oh well what can you do life goes on!

I'm going to be undergoing some laser treatments POSSIBLY starting in July/Aug and I was quoted $300 for half hour by the derm. But this is just facial hair. Sorry to hear that.

Just do a search for this title
"Something I read for hair reduction!!" and you can read about the lard.

Shop around!

I just bought a package of leg - lower leg - treatments for $500. Five sessions.

It's a laser I haven't tried before, we'll have to see how it goes...

Depending on where you live, american laser centers might work - www.americanlasercenters.com. they're not out here - bummer. They have good rates and use a laser I know works well.

WOw RunnerDuck that sounds like a good deal!!
I called a few other places a bit less but not by much here on the east coast. I'm getting to that point I need this done and wiling to pay the price. Darn those hairs!!!!

My sister is going to school for estetician or something like that.. Not sure of the spelling and she said that laser is going to be apart of her training.. And if so i am going to be here test out person WOOHOOO! I would check around your area for schools that do that. I know alot of schools have the public come in for stuff like that for a very low low cost..
