I regretted having had a brazilian with laser. Only had one session (white skin, dark hair - Soprano machine). It's been 8 weeks. I am barely seeing hairs. At the moment very few, sparse hairs but they are thin; also small patches with smooth skin. Can hair grow from those patches? I have read that pubic hair has a 6 month cycle, so in 6 months time will I have a real "picture" of the amount of hairs I have been left with? Is a "bush" still possible ? hair density ? hair length?

Laser hair removal destroys the hair follicle to give you a lasting result. In between treatments the hair will grow back thinner then before, most patients need 6-9 treatment for full correction. You should only be shaving the area between sessions, no waxing, threading, or plucking and...
This could possibly be an ingrown hair that is inflamed which would explain why it continues to grow. Either way I would recommend going to see your doctor to have him look at the area and either extract it or biopsy it to see if it could be something else more serious.
