How many sessions of Laser will I need?

The average number of sessions we find is 8 to 9. Some lucky people are done in 6, and others... particularly blonder, finer hairs, take more, sometimes 12, to get a good hair free result. We normally say a minimum of 6 is required - but for most people it's a few more than that. Part of the reason is your expectations. One person’s definition of hair free can vary from another! As a general rule, around 50% of the hairs in a treated area will be destroyed in 3 to 4 sessions, then its diminishing returns from there, as fewer hairs remain which can be treated. See our question later on, titled 'why is my laser not working any more?' for a full explanation!
