Is It Ok to Wait Longer Than 4 Weeks Between Ipl Sessions?

creation27
Is it ok to wait longer than 4 weeks between ipl sessions. I have already had 2 sessions 4-5 weeks apart, and am pleased to say there is 80% reduction. Therefore I was hoping to wait longer than 4 weeks to allow more hair growth for the 3rd session. Is this advisable?
