    Definitive Epilation Solutions In Bsas

    Depilite uses the Soprano XL laser and they have dermatologists working there, not estheticians. I've had sessions with them with good results but I picked them because I like the Soprano. Some places use ND Yag: it often depends on which equipment they use not only the expertise of the doctor.
