Tired of wasting money on waxing? Sick of the painful ingrown hairs? If so, Laser Hair Removal is the perfect solution to end your frustration!

Laser Hair Removal is the most popular permanent hair removal technique available.

Wondering how it works? Want to know how many treatments you’ll need? Are you asking how long should laser hair removal last?

Worry not, you’ve got questions and we’ve got answers!

Laser Hair Removal Has Come a Very Long Way!

Since its approval by the FDA in 1995, advances in technology have made laser hair removal safe and effective for all skin types.

A special laser is used to heat pigment in body hair, then heat moves from the pigment to the follicles. This transfer destroys or damages the follicle without causing damage to your skin.

How Many Treatments Will I Need?

Most patients will need to schedule at least four to six sessions for the best Laser Hair Removal results. Keep in mind, the number of sessions you need depends on the denseness and thickness of the hair being treated.

Ok, Tell Me – How Long Should Laser Hair Removal Last?

This is going to depend on several factors like the type of laser used, the skill of your laser hair removal specialist, and underlying skin conditions. Although destroyed follicles will not regrow hair, at some point you need to return for maintenance on hair follicles that weren’t destroyed yet.

When asking, “How long should laser hair removal last,” it’s important to remember you need to successfully complete your series of treatments for lasting results. Afterward, any regrowth will be finer and much less coarse.
