2 weeks ago I had my first and only brazilian laser hair removal treatment. Almost ALL the hair has shed (I don't know if this is normal since I read that only SOME hair sheds). I wish I would have chosen the traditional bikini style. Will my hair grow back if I stop treatment? Also, will the THIN hair that will now grow - if it does grow at all - become thick as the "lasered-off" hair if I shave? Will I be able to have a traditional bikini laser treatment?

Answer: Regret Having Brazilian Laser Treatment (I Only Had 1 Treatment) ... Will It Grow Back if I Stop Treat?
Hi A214. Your suggestion is exactly our protocol. For high strength hydroquinone use (over 4%) we require a 1 month resting period after 3 months of use. If you have been off for a month, we would think it ok to go back on. Good luck.
Thank you for your question. I would recommend a diode laser with a longer wavelength such as a 1064nm. This will be more gentle on skin with darker pigment while still effectively removing hair, it also is more efficient for this situation then electrolysis. Stay out of the sun for as long as...
Laser hair removal devices are so low in energy that you would have to be zapping yourself day and night to see any difference. Having your baby in the next room will be no harm. I strongly advise you to see a certified physician to benefit from a full, lasting result.
Best regards
