Why does the hair grow after laser treatment?

Thank you for your question.  Laser hair removal works by treating the hair follicle, not necessarily the hair shaft.  During the treatment, the laser kills the hair follicle so that new hair no longer grows.  However, the body still needs to eliminate the hair that is currently there which take about 10-14 days. It is after this time that you may notice the reduction in hair.  Also, laser hair removal is typically done in a series of secessions so having the expectation that it will take multiple treatments is important. It is best to discuss your questions and concerns with a trained provider.

Thank you for your question. It can take up to 2 weeks for the hairs to fall out of the follicles after having laser hair removal treatment. Please remember typically takes 6-9 sessions spaced 4-8 weeks apart to see 70-90% reduction in hair growth. I recommend addressing any concerns you may have with your treating physician. Best of Luck!

  Hello , and thank you for your question . It takes up to two weeks for the hairs to "fall out" of the follicles after receiving a treatment. Multiple treatments are necessary 4-6 weeks after in order for the hair to be removed . Normally 6-8 sessions are recommended depending on the hair type and skin color .  Hope that helps .
