Why: The office frequently changes the appointment time.
Seeking help:

My daughter took her first laser hair removal treatment on her underarms. She had pain for a couple of days and the discomfort that goes along with the treatment. With highly busy high school life, she wishes to take rest of her treatments during the winter and summer school breaks. I know the minimum recommended time period between two treatments but is there anything like maximum time period? Does one loose the effectiveness of the previous treatment if the second treatment is taken after 6 months?
Review of Laser hair removal:

Not sure, yet. My daughter has taken only one treatment in her under arms. After the first treatment she had lot of discomfort in the treated area but was okay after 2-3 days.

The clinic should advise you and your daughter when to come in for your next appointment, because you want to catch the hairs in the right growth phase. Do they offer weekend appointments? This might be easier to work around her school schedule.

Good luck!
