| I had laser HAIR REMOVAL for my legs. And in fact, although it was used to remove the hair from my legs, it also got rid of the spots on my legs as well. I had some spots that accumulated due to shaving and using the epilator hair removable machine. It ruined my legs. Those stupid pluckers. Never pluck body hair! It'll make your life miserable. The hair comes out thicker and leaves awful marks. It may not happen to everyone but still, why take the chance. Anyway, laser got rid of all the dark spots on my legs. I don't even have one spot on my leg now. I even had a mole on my leg and that is gone too. Oh, and I also had a burn scar that is no longer there. |

Sophias how much does it cost to get hair laser removal? I want this done to my legs. The sunless tanning lotion just doesn't cut it on shaved legs. They look bumpy.
Does the hair laser removal help with that? |

| I have had numerous moles removed using a Co@ laser. I even had one removed from my cheek. None of them have left a scar. I had this done while I was working in South Korea for less then $10!!! I am returning this spring and plan to get a few more removed. |

| I had my small moles on my face removed via laser, creating small holes where the moles were. The doctor gave me vit C+E creme to apply. It stings awfully on application, but eventually, the wounds filled up and healed without any scars. |

I had some dark spots removed by laser, and I would say I am satisfied with the result. The area turned gray soon after the treatment and then bruise-like and lasted for 2 weeks. Some dark spots became much lighter and some disappeared completely. I would do it again for those lighter spots when I have enough money.  |

I will give a brief update on my experience with itworkspaste.
The scabs on three out of the five moles I treated, have now fallen off. The moles are gone, and only small red marks are left. I assume they will fade with time. I was quite impressed by the results!
By accident I applied some of the paste in the surrounding area of one of the moles. The mole has been removed, and a pretty large wound is left. It's about to grow, and I have applied a plaster.
I also had problems with another mole because I was not careful enough, and the scab fell off before the wound had grown.
Bottom line: When the moles have been treated with the paste, I believe it's important to protect the wounds with a plaster or bandage (not to tight) in order to avoid wounds and infections. |
I have heard positive reviews on this and was wondering too what you mean by plaster. |

A plaster is a Bandaid. |

i went to a plastic surgeon to laser off a few of my moles, they first injected an anesthetic then proceeded to use a laser to burn off the moles.
the plastic surgeon said the moles may come back because they are sometimes like an iceberg, you only see the superficial layer but with a huge chunk still underneath the skin, so it's not possible to get rid of the whole mole.
and one of the mole did come back  |

I've had my mole lasered twice - and it's still there. The doctor is hesitant to laser too deeply in case he leaves a hole but I'm getting sick of getting in done. Maybe I'll try the Itworks Paste. |

I had good luck with itworkspaste too - I will say not to get it on anything but the mole - I got a bit extra on the edges so my wound was bigger than it would have been. It was a while ago I used it and basically, you have to get a scab on it - otherwise how else would it heal? I think keeping it soft with a scar type healing product (they have emuscar) is a good idea. If it is in an area that would get touched by clothing or things, then I think it is okay to use a bandaid on it. I did have one removed many years ago by a plastic surgeon. There is a little very faint white spot where the mole was, about the same as the itworkspaste area for me. |

| Try ruby laser. It's supposed to be more effective than IPL Photorejeuvenation. Although be careful because there is a risk of scarring. |

| What is this ruby thing? I had a doctor want to do photorejuvination on me. He looked like a red cherry with spider veins and it scared me away...lol but he was older. |

| You can go to their website and I would imagine they would ship to Europe. |
