Is your hair growing BACK?
Do I have to have top-up appointments after my course of Laser Hair Removal?
Yes everyone needs top up sessions after they’ve finished their course of treatment, you’re looking at a maximum of 2 treatments per year and some people can even go up to 3 years without needing any top up sessions.
You’re probably thinking, “I thought laser hair removal was permanent?” and it is permanent, but we have thousands of dormant hairs in our body which can be stimulated to grow at any given time.
The following factors will cause your hair to start growing again.
- Hormones
- Certain Medication
- Menopause
- Hormonal unbalances
- Diet
- Stress
- Pregnancy
At your consultation, your laser specialist will outline how we aim to achieve an 80-90% reduction in the hair. After we achieve this, we will bring you back around 3 months afterwards to later to ensure that no damaged hair is resurfacing. In most cases, we won’t have an issue but if we do, we’ll treat you with another 2-3 sessions to ensure that we get 80-90% reduction in your hair.
After this, the only growth you’ll be experiencing is new growth and generally you’ll be at 2 sessions per year.
