I've had laser therapy about 45 times to get rid of facial hair below my eyes and above my beard line, but I stopped the sessions around a year and a half ago. Now, I'm noticing the hair is growing back on my cheeks. Do I need to go for more sessions to keep it away? And is this something I'll have to do forever? The treatment is pretty expensive at 1600 rupees per session, so I'm not keen on the idea of lifelong sessions. Plus, I'm wondering if my doctor charged me more than usual. Are there cheaper laser options available? I really need a permanent and cost-effective solution to get rid of facial hair.

yes u can use it, visit ur physician for apprpropriate managent

I'm really curious about getting laser treatment for pimple holes. Could you give me an idea of how much it costs, how many sessions I would need, and the recovery time afterward? I'm a bit worried about downtime and fitting it into my schedule.
