Electrolysis takes longer but is permanent

Can I add on to the question? How many sessions of electrolysis would it take, over how long of a time?

Also, how much per session? Or is it a set price to cover as many sessions as you need?

Nobody can answer that for sure since we don't know how much hair you have and how thick it is. Electrolysis costs per minute and it's usually about 1.50-2 per minute. Each session is typically 15-30 minutes. In the beginning you would go weekly and then less frequently as it stops growing. Probably would take 1-2 years but depends how often you go and for how long.

I did it 15 yrs ago and bh it never grew back. Doing it now for my daughter and the results are great.

If it takes so much shorter, why do people go the electrolysis route?

Do NOT use laser on your face. You can have hair growth in weird places pop up that never was before.

I did many sessions of Lazer and it didn't seem to have accomplished anything permanent

I did electrolysis and laser and neither worked permanently so go figure.
I waxed for years and now use a face razor.

I’ve heard to use electrolysis for the face

I did it I think over a year and now I go back once a year or less for a touch up

A very common side affect of laser on the face is cheek hairs turning black.
I know so many people that it happened to, hairline is ok.
if you are most menapause it may be different.
