Why should you consider laser hair removal?

Laser hair removal is an effective alternative method for hair removal compared to waxing, shaving, and plucking for the following reasons.

It is Convenient

The treatment is fast and simple, taking about 30 to 60 minutes. You also require one laser treatment every 4-6 weeks for excellent results.

Lasting Results

The major hair removal methods like shaving and waxing last only for days to a few weeks at most; however, your hair growth decreases for good with laser hair removal. Even if the hair grows back, it grows finer and lighter than the existing hair.

The hair completely reduces as you continue with the laser hair removal treatments, leaving smoother natural skin.

Comfort

Laser hair removal is a modern technique where your provider uses a laser device to eliminate unwanted hair. You only experience a warm and clicking sensation that is well tolerable. There is no pain, and the results are outstanding.

How many laser hair treatment sessions do you require to see the results?

The number of treatments you need for laser hair removal depends on the texture of your hair and your hair growth. However, most individuals require 3 to 6 sessions to achieve desired results. Even after getting the results, you still need to go for a touch-up treatment every once or twice a year to sustain them for a long period of time.

When can you expect to see results from laser hair removal?

Usually, the hair grows in different cycles. For this reason, your laser hair removal treatments alternate about 4-6 weeks in between to damage every hair cycle. You can expect to see some changes as the targeted hair falls for about 1 to 2 weeks after the first treatment.

As you proceed with the next treatment session, you are likely to notice steady hair growth that keeps improving through your treatments until you achieve smooth skin.
