Epilation: It depends on the technique used to remove the hair. If it is done with a needle and electric current, that can cause scarring at each hair follicle. Laser hair removal has less adverse effects but it requires pigmented hair to be removed . Electric epilation works on any color. The main later effect is lack of hair, should you ever want it again.
