Yes it does.: Not all hair is amenable to removal. It is also a rather long and drawn out procedure starting with a low voltage and progressively increasing the power over time. It does not feel good

Yes: it can hurt and many places put on a numbing cream first. Some people can tolerate the sting of the laser but most state that it is painful. The first few hits of the laser are not too bad but each time after it gets worse. Use the numbing cream
