Chicago Laser Hair Removal - Is Laser Hair Removal a Permanent Solution?

Many men and women dream of a day when they no longer have to shave, wax, or use depilatory creams. Thanks to technological advances, one popular solution to unwanted hair is the use of laser hair removal. But many wonder if laser hair removal is a permanent solution for them.

Whether it is hair on your legs, back, chest, underarms, or anywhere else on your body, laser hair removal can help address this unwanted hair.

The key to increasing the likelihood of successful laser hair removal is completing numerous sessions over a period of approximately a year. The reason is because hair grows in different cycles. At any point in time, hair can be in a growth phase or a dormant phase. By coming in regularly for sessions, an individual should be able to catch most hair, regardless of its growth phase. One single treatment will only be able to address visible hair in the growth phase, and will not be able to treat hair in the dormant phase. Approximately 20% of unwanted hair can be removed after each treatment.
