It is necessary to have more frequent hair removal sessions at the beginning of laser or electrolysis treatments, as complaints are common when the interval between the first two sessions exceeds two months.
When is it necessary to have more frequent hair removal sessions?
- At the beginning of treatment, always, even in low hair populations.
- In cases with high thickness and density of hair
- High population cases of lighter colored hair
- Advanced cases when it is shown that some hairs do not respond or were not seen by the operator.
If all hairs are not treated, it is necessary to ensure complete coverage with touch-ups. Incomplete coverage is evident when, during the monthly check, some hairs are observed to be much longer than others (1 centimeter).
Short-term laser hair removal for thick hair with greater density and lighter color
After 3 weekly sessions of diode laser (Primelase 810), hair regrowth was controlled in the first month of treatment. Electrolysis was necessary for hairs that did not respond to the laser.
laser (Primelase 810) were observed: the non-reappearance of new thick
black hairs and the reduction of inflammation caused by self-manipulation.
Some black hairs remained in place without having grown, showing that
they had been affected. Abundant hairs of smaller diameter were observed
and in the following weeks, the amount of white hairs increased, making
electrolysis necessary. The patient did not need to self-depilate. The amount
of hair and the need for electrolysis will extend the treatment for another
year at a fortnightly interval.

light-colored hair, it was easier to perform electrolysis.
Waxing of thin hair, at least a touch-up, is necessary.
Upper lip waxing with fine hair often leaves residual hair if follow-ups are performed within the same month of the session.

case, it is not possible to perform a reinforcement session.
Ideally, the laser pulse should not burn the hair and the hair
should fall out or be pulled out by gentle traction.
Areas with incomplete reduction:
On the legs, it often happens that hair removal is incomplete because some small hairs or lighter ones are not captured by the lasers:
hairs were also observed that if not treated will continue to
grow.
