How Many Laser Hair Removal Sessions Do You Need?
This is going to vary from person to person depending on the color of the unwanted hair and its thickness. While one person may notice that their unwanted hair has ceased to return after four sessions, another person may need up to 10 for the cycle of hair regrowth to completely stop. During your initial consultation with one of our experts, they will be able to give you a better idea at home many sessions you may need.
What to Expect During Treatment
Unlike other forms of hair removal that can be very painful and leave you with razor bumps or irritation, this type of treatment is painless and is not going to leave any of those common concerns. A device will be applied to the surface of the skin where a concentrated beam will target the underlying hair follicles. Those hair follicles will be heated, essentially stopping the cycle of hair regrowth.
The device will be used on the area or areas you wish to have treated for a time and then that’s it! It really is that simple. After your treatment has concluded, you are free to go on about your day as you normally would. There is absolutely no downtime!
