Most Efficient And Permanent Way To Remove Body Hair At Home?

I am a 54 year old male. I have always been very shy especially about my body hair and I want to know what is currently the best/most efficient and permanent way to remove body hair, preferably at home? I know that Professor Angela Christiano of Columbia University in New York was working on a hairless gene , and was in the process of developing a topical solution to stop hair growth, but there hasn t been any information/update that I can find.

hello.i am sorry, but i haven't heard of any topical solution to permanently stop hair growth, from recent literature.LP Nd.YAG or Diode LASERs would help you, though you would require multiple long sessions.
