Will a Delayed Session of Laser Hair Removal Affect Final Result?

March 3, 2009
Asked By:Jack Gunner in Canada

I went for 4 treatments of laser hair removal and was supposed to go for my 5th treatment after 6 weeks. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, it's been about 16 weeks and I'm now going for my 5th treatment. Will this 'hurt' the overall results in the end? I assume it shouldn't as the hair that has already been removed is still gone, correct? Will it just make the whole process longer?
