Hi Dinah,
I haven't had time to adequately research this, but I did do a very quick search and found something called "Elos" made by Syneron. Apparently it uses a combination of RF (I assume that's radiofrequency) plus light (I think it's laser light, but I'm not sure). It looks as if a series of treatments is required, especially for lighter-colored hair. I've read that it's very important to go to a doctor who is highly trained in the use of lasers and similar equipment rather than an "aesthetician" or other beauty spa employee.
