How Long Does Laser Hair Removal Last?

How often do you find yourself getting frustrated at hairs growing where they shouldn’t be? Laser hair removal is a very popular process for removing unsightly and unwanted hairs in those problem areas. 

But many people find themselves gravitating towards laser hair removal because they are tired of constantly using hair treatments and that does not work for long. Laser hair removal is a process that could bring many benefits to your life. But what do you need to know about it?

How Laser Hair Removal Works

The process of laser hair removal works by using different wavelengths of laser energy to the targeted area. 

As the wavelength targets hair follicles, the hair absorbs the energy, this causes the follicles to overheat so they fall out.

How Long Do Laser Hair Removal Results Last?

While the hair follicles fall out, this is not forever. They do grow back, but much more slowly. Laser hair removal slows hair growth to a crawl so that it can take months or years before the hair returns. 

The results differ from person to person, but successful treatment can rely on more than one laser hair removal procedure. As the hair regrowth does not slow down much after the first or second treatment, people need six treatments to see the best results. 

People usually start to see results after the third or fourth treatment. The results can depend on a number of factors such as the skin tone, the size of the treatment area, and the coarseness of the hair.

Benefits of Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal can bring many benefits. 

It is a quick procedure and can be done during your lunch hour. Compared to other hair removal methods, such as hair removal cream and wax, it is less painful.

Due to the precise nature of the procedure, it works effectively on a very specific part of the body that has been causing you frustration for some time. As it can remove hair from any part of the body, this saves you from having to put up with constant regrowth in that area.

Laser hair removal is a very effective long-term solution. Over the course of six appointments, it can provide fantastic long-lasting results, meaning you won’t have to waste money on other hair removal treatments, so you won’t need to worry about those problem areas ever again.

Am I a Candidate for Laser Hair Removal?

Anybody who has issues with excess hair can be a candidate for laser hair removal. Hair growth can happen due to a number of reasons such as aging and hormones. 

Anybody who is experiencing dark coarse hair on parts of the body, such as their lips, under their arms, and chin can significantly benefit from laser hair removal.
