Has anyone tried laser therapy to quit smoking? What are your thoughts on how it worked? It is fairly costly, so I would like to know if it’s worth it.

Did nothing for me. I did quit overtime with the patch/and or gum.

Lasted a couple days. Cold turkey and Nicorette gum worked better. Smoke free since 1996. You really must want to quit.

Used Chantix....pres:cription drug.

For us... Over 10 years now

Like any quit smoking program person has to want to quit.  
Spouse has tried them all but does not want to quit so they don't work.  
 
Laser made him extremely mean and snarly . 3 times was going to town to buy smokes for him and almost left him. Never even stopped said "he was cutting back".  
 
Champix made him have some pretty violent dreams to the point I moved to another bedroom.  
 
He now smokes more than he ever did and a health scare didn't make him want to quit either.

I read a book by Allan Carr (I think) called "the easy way to quit smoking".  
 
I thought my friends were completely mad when they told me how it worked for them. How could reading a book help anyone quit smoking right!  
 
I went and bought the book cause why not and read it cover to cover. I continued smoking for about another 2 or 3 months when I picked up the book again to skim through a few sections. That was the last time I had a cigarette (10+ years now).  
 
I know this has nothing to do with laser, but just throwing it out there as it worked for me and others I know
