Ingrown hairs after laser hair removal, will they eventually be removed with more sessions?

September 7, 2018
Asked By:Sky147 in Boca Raton, FL

I got my first laser hair removal treatment and I was left with a couple ingrown hairs that now seem to be stuck under the skin. They are red and bumpy around 2-3 millimeters long. What can I do? I see posts saying to just keep the treatments going, but if the hair is stuck under the skin, how does the laser remove the bumps and the hair? Please help.
