Is hair supposed to be visible after session of laser hair removal?

xmzannax
I just got done with my third treatment of laser hair removal. But I still see hair on my upper lips after my session, is it supposed to be visible after my session or is it supposed to be completely gone? I understand that it takes time and many sessions for it to be permanently gone. But is it supposed to be visible after the session?
