Brief Answer:
Try IPL

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
Usually Eflora is very effective.
If you are not getting relief with this, the next option is IPL ( Intensed pulse light).
It is a type of LASER.
It gives very good results.
There is no other cream which can give you a permanent result.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you

Hello Doctor,

My query is to suggest a suitable cream for hair removal, apart from veet/fem.
I do agree that eflora is yielding good result growth had been slowed down, but coming back so I need to remove the hair before applying eflora. Please suggest suitable medicated cream for hair removal.

If you are sensitive to veet and fem, you will be sensitive to other creams also. as the chemical used is same.
It is best to go for threading and then apply Eflora.
