Unwanted hair (female) Treatment is Laser hair reduction by using Diode technology. Multiple sessions are needed (6-8) sessions depending upon the growth of hair. Unwanted hair is a sign of hormonal imbalance. Few blood tests might be needed & evaluated. Also USG (pelvis) is required to Rule out PCOD.
