How many underarm laser hair removal treatments will I need?

Most patients need at least 8 underarm laser hair removal treatments, typically spaced 6 to 8 weeks apart, for optimal hair reduction. This schedule gives new hairs time to enter the active growth, or anagen, phase, which is the only stage when laser hair removal can effectively target the follicle.

According to Dr. Will Kirby, LaserAway Chief Medical Officer and board-certified dermatologist, "Patients can expect to receive 10 to 15% hair reduction per treatment." Dr. Kirby also explains, "Laser hair removal targets that bulb in the anagen phase," when the hair is actively growing. Because hairs enter this phase at different times, each session can target additional active follicles, leading to progressively less regrowth.

No. Underarm laser hair removal is considered an elective cosmetic procedure and is not covered by most health insurance plans.
