A laser hair removal session usually takes between 30 minutes and an hour, depending on the size and specifics of the area being treated.
Most people need about six sessions of laser hair removal to achieve lasting hair reduction, especially for hair with noticeable pigment, to get the best results over time.
The process of laser hair removal is spread out over multiple sessions to effectively target hair at different stages of its growth cycle. Here’s what you can typically expect at each stage of the treatment:
Initial impact: The first session targets active hair follicles. Post-treatment, you may notice hair fall out within one to three weeks, which indicates the treatment is working.
Enhanced reduction: Scheduled four to six weeks after the first, the second session targets new hair growth, which wasn't previously affected due to the differing growth cycles.
Noticeable results: By the third session, you should begin to see a significant reduction in hair growth. The hair that does grow back is often finer and lighter.
Substantial clearance: Most clients experience substantial hair reduction at this stage and may see patches where hair no longer grows.
Finalising results: This session typically addresses any lingering hair growth, ensuring the treated area remains smooth.
Maintenance: After completing the initial series, touch-up sessions may be needed annually or biannually to manage any new growth triggered by hormonal changes or other factors.
