I have spent about $17,000 over 2 years on electrolysis. Wasn't planning to but there you go. Things in Australia seem expensive! After about 12 months, I thought that since I had started, I really should finish. They started at the bottom and cleared as they went so it wasn't a slow reduction over my whole face. Now at the stage where I only go every 3 weeks so there is enough to do for the whole hour. However, the hourly rate is multiples of $25 so don't ry to work out how many hours. I do have 2 techs going at once with 8 probes each doing just galvanic, not blend or thermo.
If laser works for you, go for it. If it only works a bit, get that cleared up first. If you have grey, red, white, light brown like me, you are pretty much buggared!
