Question: How much does laser hair removal cost?

Embarrassing but, I’m looking to have my unwanted mustache taken off forever! Does anyone know how much this typically costs?

Answer: Hi!

Laser hair removal costs usually vary from person to person and depend on many factors, including more obvious factors such the amount of hair and the area to be treated, as well as less obvious factors, such as the color and coarseness of the hair and hereditary factors.

Prices also vary between centers, though it would not be prudent to pick based only on price, as results may vary widely based on the quality of the center, a technician’s level of experience, the type of laser being used, and whether several treatments are being purchased (most clinics will offer discounts if several treatments are purchased at the same time).

On average, one should expect to pay between $70-$150 per treatment for the upper lip. We normally recommend between 5 and 7 treatments.

Laser hair removal can be expensive. And cheap laser hair removal is hard to find! Below I’m going to give you four tips to get finding the cheapest laser hair removal treatments, while performing a few great deeds.

How to Build your Positive Karma

You know the expression you get what you give? You get what you pay for? You don’t get if you don’t give? Oh gosh… Seems that my mind isn’t crystal clear this morning… (one too many mojitos last night, sorry guys!)

Well, let me start over and just say that sometimes when you go out of your way to do something nice for someone, like when you do something that will only help that person and make their life better, well, sometimes that gesture is rewarded… Big time!

Refer a Great Service

So I told you about how I dragged my friend Miriam to the Open House at Assara to force her to try laser hair removal. Well, I knew she would freak out and kick herself for not trying it sooner. Of course my prediction was accurate.

Assara was offering a free lase treatment (laser hair removal, laser spider vein removal or laser facials) during the Open House and I knew that the only way to get Miriam to try it. She walked out of Assara shocked and impressed. She wouldn’t stop touching her upper lip and staring at it in her pocket-mirror. “I can’t believe it, the hair is gone and I don’t have red bumpy skin on my upper lip. This is insane!” She said as we sipped mojitos at Bar Americain, down the street from Assara. “I would never be able to go out right after getting my upper lip waxed! And the lasering took like 3 minutes. It didn’t even hurt,” Miriam continued, as I stared at her with my least obnoxious ‘I told you so’ face.

Be Rewarded For your Good Deed

So Miriam signed up for laser hair removal on her upper lip (and plans on doing her underarms too). But that’s not the best part. The sweetest part is that Assara gave me a $50 gift card for referring her. And don’t think that’s a special treat just for me, or just swag given to their number 1 journalist,  ANYONE who refers someone gets the $50 gift certificate.

Spread the Word Using Social Media

Miriam told me that her laser technician told her that if I joined Assara on Facebook, she would receive an additional 10% off any service.

Aaaaand . .  . just to sweeten the pot even more, they’re putting out special offers on Twitter They must be offering some sick stuff, because I noticed they have 3700 followers! That’s more followers than my blog has… hmmm… maybe I need to start giving stuff away too…
