Does it feel like shaving, waxing, and tweezing is a full-time job in the summer? Not to mention, razor burn and ingrown hairs from shaving are just awful.

If you’re ready to toss your razor in the trash, then you need laser hair removal (LHR). So, how long does laser hair removal last?

How Does Laser Hair Removal Work, Anyway?

LHR is a treatment that uses a cutting-edge laser to heat the pigment in your body hair. The heat transfers from the pigment to your hair follicle and destroys it without damaging your skin.

It’s fabulous for treating problem areas like your bikini area, underarms, chest, and legs.

Okay, How Long Does Laser Hair Removal Last, Really?

Expect around 90% permanent hair loss in any area you treat. Your body is wonderful at healing itself, so some hair follicles just refuse to die. However, that’s 90% less hair you have to spend time removing.

Cool! How Many Treatments Do I Need?

You need to return for more treatments about every six weeks. It only takes four to six treatments to experience permanent hair loss. Talk to your provider about setting up a schedule, so you never miss an appointment.

If You Want Amazing Results, Find an Amazing Provider!

Your results with LHR depend on who is performing your treatments. It's very important to find a laser expert that you are comfortable with. Be sure to ask if your provider has the right laser for your skin. Always check online reviews, look at social media pages, and ask to see before-and-after photos.
