Facial Laser Hair Removal I am Confused

Hi I would like to get my facial laser hair removal done for my whole face but I'm really worried about my face looking stubbly in between treatments!?!

I am very confused. Could you explain what the hair growth is like in between the treatments?
thank you.

If your hair growth on your face is very very think and noticeable, your hair may grow back exactly the same in between the first few sessions but eventually they will start to get finer.

Normally what happens is when you have a course of sessions the hairs will start to shed normally 5-10 days after treatment.


When I mean shedding, I don’t mean they will fall out into your hands but if you try to pull one hair out it should come out easily without tugging at it or you could get a scrub and the hairs will start to shed.

As your hair growth cycle maybe different to others at this stage we can’t tell how much hair growth will come back in between the sessions.

So for example if after two weeks you notice growth coming through this is new growth and has nothing to do with your pervious treatment that has taken place. This growth will be treated in your next session.

Normally after the first few sessions your new growth will be patchy and this is normal.

Some clients do assume that the area treated will be all cleared after the first few sessions and there will be no hairs present unfortunately this is not true. Hair will be patchy due to the different stages of re-growth.

For facial laser hair removal we recommend 12 sessions as the face is very hormonal compared to other parts of your body, therefore more sessions are required.

If this all sounds confusing come in for a consultation and one of the therapist will look at your hair growth and will be able to explain the treatment more in detail.
