How many treatments does Exel HR Laser hair removal require?

The total number of treatments varies based on the area treated. Typically, 5-6 treatments spaced 4-12 weeks apart is recommended.

Why does laser hair removal require multiple treatments?

Laser and other energy-based hair removal requires multiple treatments because hair grows in different phases. You know when you are due for your next treatment session when hair in the treated area begins to grow back. It is very important to stick with the treatment schedule that your practitioners suggest—missing a treatment could allow your hair to enter the next stage where hair begins to detach from the hair follicle which can increase the number of treatments originally required.

What areas can be treated?

Due to excel HR’s superior technology, exceptional results are achievable on all hair types—fine or coarse. The device does require the hair to be dark in color. Hairs that are light, blonde, white, or grey cannot be seen by the laser and therefore cannot be treated.

Commonly requested areas include: underarms, face, legs, arms, bikini, and men’s chest and back.

Is Excel HR Laser hair removal really worth it?

While traditional methods of hair removal, like shaving, waxing and depilatory creams are still the go-to-methods for many, these methods are all temporary and must be repeated on a frequent basis…forever! excel HR laser hair removal is the quick and efficient solution to rid yourself of unwanted hair. Additionally, excel HR laser hair removal helps you to be much more efficient, economic and green.
