Chin hair laser removal after first treatment.

It is too soon to have results with laser hair removal. It will take a series of treatments. I typically have patients do every 4 weeks for the first 3 times and then every 4-6 weeks for 3 times after. See an expert in laser hair removal for best results. White hair will not be effective for hair removal.  Best, Dr. Emer.

It is very difficult to say what happened during your first hair removal session. Generally you may notice that it takes up to a week for the hair to regrow and that it will regrow fully. Depending on your hair growth you may need 3-4 treatments to notice any difference. Keep up with your treatments and let your provider know if you are not noticing any change. Good Luck!

Thank you for your question. Laser hair removal uses and intense, pulsating beam of light to remove unwanted hair. The intense heat of the laser damages the hair follicle, which inhibits future hair growth. It is too early after one session to determine what results will be. Laser hair removal is most effective for people who have light skin and dark hair. Laser hair removal is considered more permanent reduction than permanent removal. It takes 6-9 sessions to see 70%-90% reduction in hair growth.
