For long-term benefits, many factors must be taken into account. Some examples include your age, ethnicity, weight, medication, diet, metabolism, hair type, hair growth cycle, hair and skin colour, and hormones.
For instance, because hair grows in cycles, we maximise the laser’s ability to destroy hair growth by doing the session’s mid-growth cycle—roughly every 4-6 weeks. Once we identify your hair growth cycle, we can determine how often to plan your treatments. Someone with lighter skin and darker hair takes around 6-8 sessions and darker skin 6-10 sessions with 4-6 week intervals. This treatment cycle enables our permanent laser hair removal treatments to reduce or eliminate hair growth. Once your treatment plan is complete, you may need maintenance treatments one to two times a year.
