I am unable to have laser hair removal every 6 weeks. If a wax the area I want to treat, 6 weeks before each laser treatment, so that my hair will be in the proper time to be treated, the results will be as good as I have laser hair removal every six weeks, that is the recommended time space between the treatments?

Answer: Avoid waxing with laser hair removal
You should not wax 6 weeks before starting laser hair removal and then do not wax again. You can shave instead. The hair needs to be in the follicle for your next laser treatment. For the face, treatments are usually performed 6 weeks apart, but other areas are treated 8-10 weeks apart. Remember to avoid the sun before and after your laser treatments.

Answer: Waxing prior to laser hair
Thank you for your question. It is not a good idea to wax before you get a laser treatment. Laser target the pigment in the hair follicle and by pulling out the follicle you have nothing for the laser to go after. If you are getting laser treatments just stick with shaving in between and you will have a much better result.
