How should I prepare for treatment?

You should shave the area to be treated 1-3 days before treatment No waxing or removing hair with the root with any other way is allowed 4-6 weeks before and throughout the course of treatment as hair needs to be in place to be targeted by laser. The area should be shaved as closely as possible so that laser can target the most energy towards the hair follicle and not waste energy on the part of the hair above the skin’s surface. .


What do I expect after treatment?

Within 2-3.5 weeks, you should experience shedding of treated hair. At first, hair will look like it’s growing back in, but it is just coming through the skin to shed. Shedding starts at about 1.5 weeks and can last until 3.5 weeks post-treatment or so. Exfoliating and/or scrubbing gently in the shower with a loofa can help speed up the process. After shedding finishes, you might experience little black dots still “stuck” in the skin. These are commonly referred to as “pepperspots” and will shed eventually, but might take a bit longer. Exfoliate to help those out as well.


Why do I need several treatments?

Most people need at least 6-8 initial treatments. This is because hair grows in 3 phases:anagen, catagen and telogen.But hair is only killed in the first “anagen” active growing phase. Several treatments are needed to target ALL hair in the active growth phase. Approximately 3-8 weeks after every treatment, additional treatment is required to eliminate the hairs that came out of the dormant phase and are now active. After 6-8 treatments or so, one should experience a considerable percentage of hair reduction.
