How much does pain matter when you’re evaluating hair removal lasers? It’s an interesting question, isn’t it? Laser hair removal technology has been around for a while now and some have accepted patient discomfort as a fact of a good treatment. Maybe the cliché philosophy of no-pain, no-gain still applies to some industries, but we’d like to take suffering out of laser hair removal. A recent study from Dr. Chris Zachary comparing two leading hair removal lasers resulted in some great findings. We’ll get to this in a bit, but first let’s consider what patient discomfort can do to a hair removal business.

Ask these questions:

1. How many patients vocally protested the pain level of their treatment?
2. Did the amount of pain help to increase your referrals?
3. How many hair removal patients requested additional hair removal treatments?
4. How many patients simply couldn’t tolerate a painful hair removal device?

Our point is that a painful experience probably won’t do much for your laser hair removal business. Chances are that nobody is going to say, “You should have you hair removal done where I had it done because it felt like being burned from the inside out – yah!” A comfortable experience with a hair removal laser, on the other hand, can be a huge plus and even give you a new advantage over competitors.

Perhaps patients will be more apt to recommend your hair removal services if they enjoyed their treatment. Perhaps more of them will continue their treatment plan. Perhaps more will sign-up to have additional body parts cleared of hair. Would that make a positive impact on your bottom line? We think so. Others might go so far as to say that such a concept is too good to be true. So please take a moment to see what Dr. Chris Zachary had to say about patient discomfort when comparing the Soprano XLi and another hair removal laser:
