Before Brittani Frederick, a 39-year-old realtor from Sioux Falls, South Dakota, booked her first appointment with Milan Laser Hair Removal, she had been shaving her legs and underarms every day for the past 25-plus years—with less than ideal results. “I would shave in the morning, and by the end of the day, you could see
