Laser treats many hairs per pulse and suits large areas of dark hair on lighter skin; it produces permanent reduction, not complete removal, and cannot see light or grey hair. Electrolysis treats one hair at a time, which makes it slow and impractical for legs or a back, but it works on any hair and any skin and is the only method approved as permanent. Most people use laser for the bulk and electrolysis for what laser leaves behind.

An upper lip or chin commonly takes fifteen to thirty minute sessions weekly or biweekly for six to twelve months, because each hair must be treated in its growth phase and hairs cycle at different times. Larger areas take longer. The total is measured in months, and the result is that the hair does not come back.

Each hair produces a brief sting or heat, tolerable for most and sharper on the upper lip. Numbing cream helps. The skin is red with small bumps for a few hours afterward and settles by the next day.

Sessions are priced by time, often $50 to $150 for fifteen to sixty minutes. A chin or lip over a year commonly totals in the high hundreds to low thousands, which is comparable to a laser series and buys a permanent result on hair laser could not treat.
