How does laser hair removal work?
The laser energy absorbed by your hair present in the follicle at the time of treatment essentially creates a heat damage so that each follicle is not able to produce another hair. You can learn more here.
Is laser hair removal permanent?
The laser can successfully supply enough energy to damage the follicles producing a hair at the time of a visit, for those follicles to not produce another hair. Results depend on the person, genetics, hormones and changes in hormones over time, quantity of visits had, and consistency of those treatments at the optimal time.
How long before I start seeing results?
The goal is to see success after each treatment. However, since hair grows in waves, it takes on average 8-10 sessions at optimal times to achieve the best results.
Does a laser hair treatment / series of treatment get rid of all hair?
This again depends on the person BUT the laser can successfully apply enough energy at each visit to damage the follicles currently producing a hair to not do that again. Many people can see 80% - 100% reduction after completing on average of 8 sessions. It is pretty obvious if it is working after 2 sessions. Different bodies produce different amounts of hair and consistency and quantity of treatments affect results. In order to be successful, hairs do have to have a brown tone. Hairs that are red, grey, blonde, and white will not be successful with laser.

How many treatments do I need for a sun spot to go away?
