After 12 laser hair removal sessions, can you start to space them 12 weeks apart?

Thank you for your question in regards to laser hair removal. Laser hair removal is a series of treatments to reduce the growth, color and texture of hair. After 12 treatments and 90% of hair reduction, you should only have to have "touch up" treatments when you have actively noticeably hair growth. To be sure what is best for you, see two or more board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment. I hope this helps.

I typically have patients do every 4 weeks for the first 3 times and then every 4-6 weeks for maintenance/additional treatments after. See an expert in laser hair removal for a formal evaluation. Best, Dr. Emer

Glad to hear you've got such good
results.  90% clearance of hair is a huge success!  I feel that every
6 weeks on the bikini is good timing until you've reached your desired degree
of hair reduction.    The other areas at 12 weeks apart are fine for
touching up on the remaining hair that is left.  I think it's important to
note that 100% removal of hair on any particular area is typically not
realistic.  As always, I would suggest a good consult with your laser
specialist to ensure you reach your goals.
