3 sessions of laser hair removal - will the hair in my labia area grow back eventually?

Question

I've done 3 sessions of LHR and noticed that the hair in my labial area continues to grow in the same thickness while the bikini area is already growing thin or not growing at all, I'm scared that at the end of my procedure the labial area will grow back thick, is it possible?

Hi thank you for your question.  Hair growth has 3 stages of life and every single hair follicle is on its own growth cycle.  It is normal to notice more reduction in one section compared to another because of this and also some sections on the body being more hormonal than others.  Your physician will recommend the amount of treatments needed depending on their laser and/or protocol.  At the end you should have a significant amount of reduction in your hair growth.  It is also normal to follow up with touch ups a couple times a year after completing your initial sessions to maintain your reduction.
