Hi Friendly508307

With each treatment of LHR, the follicles will die if they are in a certain cycle of growth. a few weeks should be between treatments to ensure that the hair follicles have changed into the different cycles of growth. This is why multiple sessions are necessary most patients will see an 80-85 % reduction after 6 treatments. To learn more about this procedure, please visit our website.

Thank you for your question! I believe most places will require you to be at least 18 years old to have treatment. Hope this helps!

Most placed require that you be 18 to come by yourself.  Younger than 18 can be allowed with parental consent.  Every patient should be at least through their puberty transition.
