Laser treatments are most effective on hair follicles in the active growth phase. Since not all follicles are in the same phase simultaneously, some may remain unaffected during a single session.
After a series of treatments, clients typically experience a 70-90% reduction in hair growth in the treated area.
The remaining hair is often finer and lighter.
However, the potential for minimal regrowth over time means that “reduction” and not “removal” is the most scientifically accurate term.
To maintain results, occasional maintenance sessions are often recommended to target any regrowth.
Achieving a "hair-free" result with laser hair removal typically requires 6 to 10 treatments for 95% or more reduction, though this can vary based on individual factors. These include:
1. Hair color and thickness: Dark, coarse hair responds best to laser treatments.
2. Skin tone: Lighter skin tones usually achieve faster results due to the higher contrast with dark hair.
3. Hormonal influences: Conditions like PCOS or pregnancy-related hormonal changes can prolong the process.
4. Treatment area: Areas with finer or lighter hair, like the face, may need more sessions, while areas like the underarms respond quicker.
5. Consistency: Following the recommended schedule (6–8 weeks) is crucial for optimal results.
After completing the initial series, occasional maintenance sessions (e.g., once a year) may be needed to address any remaining or new hair growth due to hormonal changes or other factors.
