Hair growing after 1st sitting of Laser hair removal? (Photo)

The results of laser hair removal are not instantaneous. The way LHR works is by targeting focused laser energy at the hair follicle during its active growth phase to damage the follicle enough to prevent the hair from growing back. For lasting results, it typically takes several sessions spaced out several weeks apart. Check back with your laser hair removal technician to see what type of schedule they recommend for your ongoing treatments.

Thanks for your question.  You service provider obviously did not give you post-care instructions.  First, it will take a series of treatments to reduce your hair production.  LHR treatments deliver a burst of energy to the hair follicles that are actively growing.  The energy destroys these follicles ability to produce another hair.  The hair shafts in those follicles will release and fall out over the next 1-3 weeks.  Other dormant hair follicles start producing hair every day.  It takes a series of at least 6 treatments to get most the hair growth.  Generally speaking, you should look for a facility where they have a doctor on staff and is usually there to answer questions.  Find out what type of machine (laser vs. IPL) they will be using.  A properly calibrated laser is usually much more comfortable than an IPL.  Using the correct settings for your skin type also makes it more comfortable.  Sorry to say, probably the most expensive treatment is probably the best.Best of luck

Laser hair removal requires multiple sessions 4 to 6 weeks apart. It is very normal to see hair growth immediately after one session since the hair follicles are not distroyed all at once but in phases. You need to be patient.

Laser hair removal is permanent, but a small percentage of hair is reduced with each treatment.  What you are experiencing is normal.
