Excessive or unwanted body hair is becoming a more and more important social problem, and the desire for permanent hair removal is

increasing. Laser hair removal belongs to the most advanced methods. This method was used for the first time in 1996 and has become quite

wide-spread. It leads to an obvious reduction of hair in the treated area. The most optimal effect can be reached in individuals with fair skin

and dark hair. This method is practically painless, has minimal side effects on condition that safety procedures and principles are kept.
