Subject: Permanent Hair Reduction (лазерная эпиляция) laser.med. Так и не нашел русских эквивалентов. Контекст: Hair removal lasers have been in use since 1997 and have been approved for "permanent hair reduction" in the United States by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).[5] Under the FDA's definition, "permanent" hair reduction is the long-term, stable reduction in the number of hairs regrowing after a treatment regime. Indeed, many patients experience complete regrowth of hair on their treated areas in the years following their last treatment. This means that although laser treatments with these devices will permanently reduce the total number of body hairs, they will not result in a permanent removal of all hair (взял отсюда: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_hair_removal)Как я понял, термин придумали, чтобы не вводить в заблуждение пациентов и подчеркнуть, что результат эпиляции не «навсегда».
