Question:
if anyone's interested I just tried a new hair removal laser (approved by the
FDA to be considered "permanent hair reduction").
Answer:
Hey - just logged on to the choherant medical website - the makers of that
laser. Read their study at:
http://www.coherentmedical.com/ROX_perm_final.htm
You should know that, according to that study Coherent defines a ", permanent
hair reduction" (notice that they did not say "removal" here, hmmm...) as
being "defined as greater than 15% hair reduction". This someone who had only
a 16% hair reduction - pretty insignificant really - fits that criteria.
Their study showed that, after one year, 89% of their patients achieved at
least that 16% figure. What percentage acheived 90% and what percenatge only
clustered around 16%?? They do not say. Hmmmmm.... They only say that 89%
of the forty odd people in their study acheived at least 16% reduction after
one year.
