How many sessions are needed for permanent laser hair removal?

For many people, opting for laser hair removal is the first step towards smooth skin without shaving, waxing or depilatory creams. However, a frequently asked question is:
"How many sessions are necessary to be permanently hair-free?"*.

In this article, we answer the most important questions about the number of treatments - based on experience, technology and skin type - and show you why you should choose Laserazor you are in the best hands.

✅ On average 6-8 sessions for visible, long-lasting* results

For most clients, between 6 and 8 sessions are necessary to achieve long-term hair reduction. It depends:

In which body region is treated
What skin and hair type you have
The extent to which hair growth is hormonal
Whether other methods (e.g. waxing) have been used previously

Experience has shown that:
The darker and stronger the hair and the lighter the skin, the faster the laser takes effect.

📌 Important: Laser only works on hair in the active growth phase (anagen phase). Therefore, several sessions are necessary to reach all follicles.

🔬 Why alexandrite and Nd:YAG lasers are ideal

With Laserazor we only use medically certified Alexandrite and Nd:YAG lasers - both technologies known for their effectiveness in *permanent hair reduction:

Alexandrite laser (755 nm): ideal for light to medium skin types (Fitzpatrick I-III)
Nd:YAG laser (1064 nm): especially for darker skin types (Fitzpatrick IV-VI)

This combination enables a customized treatment that is tailored to your skin type and target region.
