Suggest Treatment For Unwanted Hair Growth

good day,, i have a problem regarding my hairs throughout my body (chest, legs, arms and stomach area) I find unclean and unhygienic. I already tried shaving and waxing them off but they grow so fast. I wonder if there are medicines i can take to somewhat eradicate or at least lessen them,, hormones perhaps.

Hello and welcome to healthcaremagic

Laser hair reduction (LHR) offers the best chance of reliable and effective solution for your problem. The results would be permanent and would spare you from shaving/waxing etc

You may need to take a total of 6-8 sessions of LHR, at a gap of 4-8 weeks between the sessions, for desirable results.

Apart from mild redness post-laser which goes away with ice-pack application there are really no side effects at all, if done by a well trained/experienced expert.
