Question:
Im 32, female, and I HATE my underarm hair. I have to shave it at least once a day to keep it from looking like an animal. Ive been thinking that laser treatments might be a good option for me. How many treatments would I need to get my underarm hair under control?
Answer:
You are a perfect candidate for laser hair removal. Underarm hair requires approximately 5 or 6 laser hair removal treatments to adequately control your hair. The fact that your hair grows so rapidly is a benefit in the for laser hair removal in that the laser targets hair follicles that are in the growth phase. If more follicles are in the growth phase during your laser hair removal treatments, the better the laser will work to alleviate the hair.
