Hello and welcome to HealthcareMagic

Laser hair reduction (LHR) is a very safe and reliable way for hair reduction. Apart from mild redness after the sitting which usually resolves in 1-2 hours, there are really no side effects at all, if done by a well trained/experienced expert.

LHR can be done on any part of the body like face, underarms, arms, legs, bikini area etc

Normally 6-8 sittings will give you a good hair reduction. It is US FDA approved for hair reduction and gives long lasting results. I would suggest that go ahead with it.
