Laser hair removal. My hair has grown back thicker and denser

simaRANrai
Hello, i got laser hair removal done about a month ago on my upper lip. ( it was my first treatment), before i had very fine hair but now i have noticed that my hair have grown back thicker and denser. I believe the laser was on very low setting could be a reason. Now i havent gone back , as i am too scared to make it worse. I am thinking that if i donnot go for any hair removal treatments , the hair will go back to their original state. It that true??
