Laser hair removal

I purchased 8 sessions for laser hair removal (lip) pre covid. Had 3 done then everything was shut down. Have done 4 since they reopened and have 1 left in 5 weeks. I’m pretty sure I will still have hair left because before this last session, I had a decent amount of growth in a few spots.

If you’ve had this done, how many sessions did it take you? Should I buy another 4 and would that be enough?
Also, you think because I had to wait 4 months In-between some sessions bc of covid that it made it not work as well?

I got back first week January for my last treatment. So I’m just trying to see if it’s worth it to get a few more or if this is the best I’ll get. It’s def less than it used to be but nowhere near being able to “forget about it” still visible in between shaving w the little buzzer

Re: Laser hair removal

Where are you having the hair removed? I don't remember how many sessions I had per area, but just remembered that the hair grows differently and I had to go at different times. I did legs, bikini, arm pits and chin. If it is only one area, I'd think 8 should be enough.

My lip. 7 in and I still have some growth. I didn’t have much to begin with so I’m surprised it’s still coming in. I wonder if she didn’t do enough. I hardly felt it every time.

Oh gosh I didn't know they resumed doing upper lips. I need to go back! I too had bought another package right before shutdown. I have to call them!

I’m considering trying a different place if I still have significant growth after my last session. Can you share where you went?

I go to Spa Fit! I hadn't been since March and just went yesterday! Prior to the shut down, I would go every 4 weeks. I'm SUPER hairy and my hair is dark and thick. All Summer I just had little regrowth and was thin. I feel like it's thicker now, probably because it's been so long since I went. My tech had told me 12 sessions is what you really need, then you go into maintenance and come like once a year or so. So after going yesterday, I will do the 4 left on my package, and then probably just have to do maintenance!

Hmmmm
So maybe I should get 4 more for the total of 12 before jumping ship ....
I’ll see how my appointment goes in 2 weeks and what they charge to add another 4 sessions.

Thanks. If it doesn’t work out with them, I’ll check our spa fit
