The cost of laser hair removal varies based a variety of factors including the area of the body targeted for hair removal, the experience of the technician and staff, and the laser technology used.  The higher quality of doctors, technology, etc., you choose, while the price does get more expensive, gives much better results in the long term.  If you go with inexperienced laser hair removal doctors, you can end up with permanent skin damage which is something you want to avoid.
