how effective is laser hair removal

Laser hair removal is generally very effective for reducing unwanted hair growth, but it is usually not 100% permanent. Multiple treatment sessions (typically 6 to 10 or more) are required to achieve significant long-term hair reduction. Most people can expect up to 80-90% reduction in hair growth after a full course of treatment. However, some hair may regrow over time, and occasional maintenance sessions might be needed to sustain results. Effectiveness depends on factors including hair color and density (works best on dark, coarse hairs), skin tone (best results on lighter skin with dark hair), and the specific body area being treated due to variations in hair growth cycles. Laser hair removal targets hairs in the active growth phase, so multiple sessions are needed to catch all hair follicles at this phase. Overall, laser hair removal provides long-lasting reduction and is a preferred method over temporary options like shaving or waxing but is not a guaranteed permanent cure.
