Laser Hair Removal Appointments

Unlike some forms of hair removal, laser hair removal does not get rid of all unwanted hair in the treatment area in one session. The majority of clients need several laser hair removal appointments before they achieve the desired results. This is because lasers target hair during its growth phase, and not all hair follicles grow at the same rate.

Although it typically takes between six to eight laser hair removal appointments before all the unwanted hair in a treatment area is eradicated, many people do see significant improvement after their first session. Hair follicles that have been affected by treatment can take up to two weeks to shed, and it may take another two weeks before dormant follicles begin their growth cycle. Generally, this means many people have about two weeks of relative hairlessness between laser hair removal appointments.

Ongoing Laser Hair Removal Appointments

Once your initial treatment schedule is completed, you can expect to go at least a year before needing more laser hair removal appointments. Results vary depending on skin and hair type as well as other factors, but most people experience permanent hair reduction with laser hair removal treatment. This means that the average client will see an 80% to 90% reduction in hair growth in the treated area.

It is fairly common for people to make additional laser hair removal appointments about once a year. This is for maintenance purposes, since sometimes hair re-growth occurs as the body ages.
