How many sessions do I need for laser hair removal on my upper or lower back?
Our package for laser hair removal of the entire upper or lower back includes six sessions. Each session must be six weeks apart because of the hair growth cycle. Laser treatments only work on hair that is actively growing. The growth phase of the hair cycle is called the anagen phase. This is the only time that the hair and the hair follicle are connected, so that the energy can pass from the hair to the follicle. Since 20% of your hair is in the anagen phase, one session can treat 20% of the hair. Each subsequent session treats another 20%. The back is a hormonal area. The hair is darker, thicker and coarser, so it is harder to remove. That is why patients will probably need extra sessions.
How do I prepare for a laser hair removal session for my back hair?
A treatment for laser hair removal of the entire upper or lower back in women is simple and convenient. It is a quick and handy way to remove back hair. Here are some friendly tips to prepare for your session:
- Avoid direct sunlight: It is important to protect your skin from sun exposure before your session. Avoid tanning beds and intensive treatments with UV rays. Artificial tanning can put the skin in an excited state, which can disrupt your treatment.
- Medication and sensitivity: Some medicines can increase your skin’s sensitivity to light, which can make the laser treatment feel more uncomfortable. Therefore, inform your certified laser specialist about your medical history before undergoing the session, so they can take this into account.
- Cleanse your skin: Make sure your skin is free of lotions, creams, moisturisers, perfumed scents and make-up before starting the session. This ensures that the laser can penetrate optimally and work effectively.
- Preparing for the session: To make the treatment more efficient, we recommend shaving your upper or lower back one to two days before your appointment. This optimises the laser targeting the hair follicles. If you cannot reach it well, do not worry. During the treatment we take care of shaving the hairs.
