For how long the laser hair removal treatments remain effective? 

Laser treatment lasts for a longer period, but multiple sessions are needed. Laser rays are effective when hairs are in growth phase (Anagen Phase). Hairs cannot remain in anagen phase at one single time. There will be some hairs which will grow after the first session. To remove these hairs, additional sessions are required.

Laser treatment sessions depend on the skin area to be treated. For instance, back, chest and leg area will require more sessions than upper lip and chin area.

Mostly laser removal sessions lasts up to 5 treatments. In some cases such as light hair color people and dark skin people the sessions can last up to 8 weeks. But one laser session is enough to give satisfying results. Regrown hairs are thinner and lighter than previous one.

Who can opt for Laser Hair Removal Treatment ?

People think that laser hair treatment is fast, safe and painless method of removing hair from their skin. Yes, it is true, but check first: Are you eligible?

People with dark skin must be extremely careful before going for this treatment. The dark skin can absorb high amount of laser energy which can damage the skin for ever. Although new techniques have been introduced to treat dark skin, but they do not guarantee full proof safety.

People with light color hair such as red, grey or blonde will have less effect of laser hair removal treatment. Their skin contain little amount of melanin which leads to low absorption of laser energy making the treatment ineffective. They will require multiple session for this treatment.
 
Your skin should have natural color for laser hair treatment. If your
skin is tanned, and then waits till it gets back to original color.

Teenagers should not go for laser hair removal at all. Hairs in their body are in growing stage, and not properly developed. Any kind of hair removal treatment can stop the growth of hair in their body and later it will damage your skin.

Person who has a dark hair and light skin is ideal candidate for Laser Treatment. Their skin absorbs sufficient light to make treatment effective.

Thickness and roughness of hair also matter in this treatment. People having thick and rough hair will have more effective and smooth treatment than people with fine hair. People having fine hair may require multiple session for it.
