Always find out how experienced they are. You can be calm if they have done over a hundred procedures. If not at least insist that they have someone more experienced around.

5. No laser removal procedure can remove all the hair and it is not permanent

No treatment can remove all the hair from your body and there are always chances of hyper pigmentation and more hair growth if the laser treatment is not done properly. Excessive hair growth can be seen more in dark skinned women than other people.
