How Much Hair Should Fall Out After Session of Laser Hair Removal (Bikini)?

Sylver
I've had one session 2 weeks ago. It seemed like a really quick session. I've had a few hairs fall out - once they fall out, are they permanently gone? Do hairs continue to fall out over time, and I won't really know how effective the treatment was for weeks yet? Or should all the hair fall out the first time, and then a portion regrows, and that's when you do your next session?
