The laser hair removal procedure can last up to a year, so in order to keep yourself looking smooth, it is advisable to undergo this procedure yearly. Other natural methods like waxing, tweezing, threading, sugaring, shaving etc will keep you looking smooth and clean for a variation of 1-2 months depending on the area (face, leg, back, chest etc).

So if you are looking for a way to permanently eliminate facial hair, you'll only be disappointed! Maybe, you should celebrate it instead of trying to get rid of it!
