Women and men both experience underarm hairiness. Shaving and waxing are painful procedures which take too much time and don’t always provide lasting solutions.
Laser hair removal effectively targets and destroys hair follicles responsible for growth; however, this process takes time.
Many patients require multiple sessions for armpit laser hair removal to reach desired results, however there are various strategies to decrease this number of appointments needed.
How Many Sessions Are Needed?
Unwanted armpit hair can be an immense source of frustration for both men and women. Regularly shaving with razor blades or waxing may become tedious over time; yet these methods still are not very successful at eliminating unwanted armpit hair. Laser hair removal offers an effective solution that permanently reduces this volume of unwanted follicles in this sensitive area and leads to decreased sweating and less irritation over time.
Most people need six to eight laser hair removal sessions in the underarm area for permanent results, though this depends on personal circumstances and thickness of skin/coarseness of hair. Furthermore, it’s important to schedule regular laser treatments so the laser can effectively destroy hair follicles and stop further hair growth.
At your initial consultation at the cosmetic laser clinic, a thorough evaluation will take place to ascertain if you are suitable for this procedure. It is essential that any allergies or health conditions which could interfere with how the laser operates are communicated to your technician; also try not to tan or use self-tanners in the weeks leading up to your first session.
