Understanding the Hair Growth Cycle
Laser hair removal targets hair in the active growth phase (anagen phase). However, not all hairs are in this phase at the same time, which is why multiple treatments are necessary. The procedure works best when hair is actively growing, and sessions are spaced accordingly to catch more hairs in this cycle.
Recommended Treatment Schedule
Most professionals recommend undergoing six to eight sessions for the best results. The exact number of sessions depends on factors such as hair type, skin tone, and the treatment area. Here’s a general timeline:
-
Face (Upper Lip, Chin, Sideburns): Every 4 weeks
-
Underarms & Bikini Area: Every 5 to 6 weeks
-
Legs, Arms, & Back: Every 5 to 6 weeks
Each session helps to progressively reduce hair growth, with noticeable thinning and slower regrowth over time. The more sessions a client have complete the longer the waiting period it will be.
