Can laser hair removal be done every 2 weeks on the face?My clinic recommends getting laser on the face at two week intervals due to the fact that I haven't noticed any hair fall out between sessions. I questioned this as I thought 4 weeks is recommended between treatments but they said that this is only applies to every other area of the body except the face which can be done at 2 week intervals. I would like to know if it is common to have treatments every 2 weeks and am I likely to start noticing hair shed by doing this instead of every weeks5 EXPERT ANSWERS
Do some lasers result in full shedding of treated hair while others have only partial shed?I had a number of sessions two years ago with a clinic that went very well. To the best of my recollection they used an Alexandrite laser. I'm a male looking for thinning of chest hair and after each session all hair shed and I was very happy with results. I moved in the meantime and went to a new local clinic 3 weeks ago. They used a Soprano Ice. I've only had two small patches of hair shed. Most hair seems untreated. They told me this is normal for this laser, is this true?1 EXPERT ANSWERS

It is alexandrite laser, but everytime i get my treatment done the hairs dont grow back and shed at all until exactly 6th week after and they dont fall by themselves, i have to pull them out with my fingers, and between my sessions i always see my hair folicles in my skin so there are black dots on my skin all the time. i want to know if this means the laser is working or not? and if its normal.2 EXPERT ANSWERS
No results with Candela GentleMax Pro laser hair removal?Hi, I did about 5 sessions of laser hair removal and saw almost no results. The hair would shed, but I did not notice any reduction. The levels used were 6, 7, 8, 8, 9 and 9. Is this too low? Should I try again at another place, or is this my own body's reaction?3 EXPERT ANSWERS

Is one laser hair removal treatment enough to remove all hair on chest? Will it grow patchy or uniform on the chest area?I had my first treatment of laser hair removal on chest and abdomen two weeks ago and I almost have any hair. Im hairy with black dense hair (and light skin). I wanted to know if is it possible to have almost 90% of the hair shed out with one treatment or will it grow (less and thiner) almost totally. The idea of my treament is to reduce density but not remove hair of the area. I'm surprised because its two weeks and it didnt grow the hair just a few ones. Will it grow patchy o uniform on the chest area?3 EXPERT ANSWERS
