Electrolysis Damage

One point that maybe relevant. If you go for laser go to a place set up to treat POCS women and not a beauty salon. They are (usually) medically qualified and use higher energy machines. And they are very aware of client sensitivity.

I couldn't agree more with all the posts about picking a good electrologist / laser practitioner who use the latest equipment and also being aware of the warning signs of things starting to go wrong (e.g. massive swelling, scabbing or the popping sounds from blow-outs). Prevention is better than cure. However, if it does all go wrong has anyone had any luck with curative treatments?

(Laser is guaranteed to permanently destroy the follicles that it does kill, it just can't necessarily kill ALL of them - hence reduction and not removal. I had my facial hair "reduced" to a half dozen survivors 6+ years ago with zero regrowth, so I'm content so far. I also had the ideal very light skin/dark hair combo for laser.)
