ND Yag Candela Gentle Stimulated Hair Growth on my Back and Shoulders (photo)

I've been going to this hair removal clinic for 2 years now, and laser made the fine hair on my back longer and darker. I am naturally very light skinned and have very dark hair. Should i let them keep treating it or should i stop? it feels like its gotten worse after they switched from Sheer Duet after 3 treatments to Nd Yag and started treating my back in all areas. I don't know why they treated those areas in the first place
