I had laser hair removal done on my upper lip. The laser zap has a tingle sensation. Depending on how high the frequency is, it can feel like a little zap (if you've ever had physical therapy with ultrasound stimulation - just like this). The area to be lasered will be dry shaved and then a gel is applied. You will have redness for a short time afterward. The laser kills the root hair, but it takes several treatments to get good results. I had 5 treatments on the upper lip and should have had 1-2 more.

I've read mixed results about the length it lasts. They will tell you it is permanent, but I've heard it lasts about 1 1/2 - 3 years. Mine is going on 5 years now and I still have about the same results. I need to pluck every a few hairs every few weeks, but it is much better than the regular bleaching and the definite mustache that was there!!
