FAQs
Laser hair treatment permanently damages the hair follicles it targets. Once a hair follicle has been damaged, hairs will not grow out of it again. However, only hairs which are in the growing phase of the hair growth cycle can be targeted by our laser device. It’s unlikely that laser hair removal can stop all of your targeted hair follicles from producing hair, but your regrowth should be up to 80% less, and much more manageable.
