There are many variables that determine how many sessions one needs.

Here are some of them:
1. Type of laser
2. Patient tolerance to treatments – if one can’t tolerate a higher setting then it will take many more sessions.
3. Individual response to laser
4. Skin color – the darker the skin the more conservative you will have to be to avoid burns
5. Color of Hair – the darker the hair, the more the laser will affect the the hair follicle.
6. Skill of operator
7. Area of the body – facial hairs are usually less stubborn, pubic areas require more
8. Gender – males often will need more treatments
It is always best to get a consultation to have at least an estimate of the number of treatments. It is a must ask for the type of laser, the experience of the center and the person who will perform your treatments.
