I did not get all the transgender references in the comments but gemini found it without issues. Nonetheless, great thing to have this. You can have a great default 'shave', can get rid of your ear hair, the hair on your toe nails. I need this

In general, experimenting at home with these kinds of light intensities is NOT a good idea. Way too much risk of accidental eye damage.

I'm kinda curious what was sum of the damage in the end.

#34I also don't see the aesthetics behind it, but I guess that's the hetero guy speaking.
Is this something that M2F trans people typically do?
Is it really this expensive? OP mentions hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Though, I have no idea who would want to sit through something that takes ten seconds per body hair. I got a light hair removal device and it's waaaaaaaay faster and cheaper.

Electrolysis on my face and neck has cost me tens of thousands. Think $100 per hour, and it taking 100-300 hours to complete typically. Full body hair removal would easily run in to hundreds of thousands, but very few people will be able to afford that.

Women are expected to not have beards, and having one or any beard shadow will get you seen as "a man" very quickly. It's both for safety, and reducing the amount of dysphoria we experience.
