Laser hair removal is a treatment option for women and men who have unattractive hair on their faces and bodies for a smoother, cleaner look. Many patients and doctors prefer laser hair removal over electrolysis because there is much less pain, which is particularly important for patients with thick hair growth. Two things to consider when getting laser hair removal treatments are that the treatments must be repeated at least once a year, and that it only works on dark hair. In the US and UK, the procedure costs around $2,100 or £1,400. Abroad, doctors can perform the procedure for much less.

In Costa Rica, Mexico and Argentina, laser hair removal only costs about $700 or £500 depending on the size of the patch you wish to remove. Plastic surgeons and hair removal technicians use state-of-the-art equipment the latest techniques for deactivating hair follicles with lasers. Technicians use the most advanced laser tools and can apply beams with wavelengths ranging from 488 to 1064 nanometers. Doctors can prescribe topical pain relievers to numb the skin and soothe any pain or itching. If patients require several laser hair removal sessions, they can easily extend their stay in Latin America. Food and lodging are inexpensive, and there are many cultural attractions to explore.
