subject: Laser Body Hair Removal: An Overview Of The Treatment Process [print this page] Laser Body Hair Removal keeps growing rapidy in popularity as men
and women be conscious of their body image. It is
estimated that about one million Americans used laser facial treatment
to remove body hair in 2003; this number has doubled since that time.
