Title: How long is okay to wait between laser hair removal treatments?
Post by: male2me on November 26, 2018, 12:19:12 AM
I've had 5 sessions of laser hair removal. My last one was in September, and I haven't gotten my 6th because I moved, and the one closer to me now is way more expensive. Is it okay to wait long amounts of time between sessions? Does anyone have specifics?

I tried to find more info before posting this, but I couldn't find anything here or elsewhere!

(by the way, my sessions have only been $60, and super effective. the people working there are super nice. so if anyone in AZ wants more info, let me know! you can pm me but idk how those work yet)

I think at least the first 10 treatments should each be done 4 weeks apart quite strictly.

The company that I visit requires four weeks between visits at the minimum.

The office I go to recommends 6-8 weeks. Although typically wait for sales as they charge $200 each appt. My Nov appt, the tech spent a lot of time really going over specific areas I had asked her to. However in July was in & out in 10 min. $200 for 10 min quick pass was more irritating than the laser.

Am hoping to switch to electrolysis to finish things up soon.
