Question

Is it permissible to remove body hairs (not the beard) permanently by means of a laser treatment (epilator)?

Answer

Removing the body's hair permanently with the epilator treatment may be harmful since it is in conflict with natural growth of the hairs which serve a beneficial purpose. Anything done unnaturally has harmful effects. It is best to abstain from this treatment.
