A few laser practioners I have been to have given me conflicting advice about the length of time I should wait between treatments. Some say 4-5 weeks is the ideal period while others have indicated 7-8 weeks is much better if one is to target a greater proportion of hair in the right growth phase. What is your view on the ideal length of time that one should wait between treatments?

Answer: Hair Growth Variable In Different Areas Of The Body Depending on the area you are treating, hair grows at different rates than other parts of your body. Typically the face tends to grow much quicker than the lower half of the body. We would recommend spacing your treatments 4 weeks apart for the face. As for the rest of the body we would recommended coming every 6 weeks as it does grow much slower. Laser targets active growing hair, every patient is different which is why some clients may have to get a few touch ups at the end of a laser hair removal series. Hope this helps!

Answer: Length of time between treatment areas The laser hair growth cycle is different in different areas and different individuals. Since the laser is most effective in the anagen phase, treating laser hair more frequently than a patient's hair cycle is not advantageous. Almost all areas require at least 3, preferably 4 week interval between treatments so that the hair can shed from the previous treatment and that the hair will be in the growth phase of hair removal.
