Only one round of laser hair removal?

So it's been about 2 weeks and every time I look in the mirror I see little to no hair on my upper lip or chin! Will this be permanent

or do I still have to go for more sessions?

Many thanks

Hairs develop in different waves. You will have new follicles develop and repopulate your face. Complete elimination of the current crop is an excellent result.

I agree with the others, hon. I was also told that facial hair grows in cycles, and that it takes at least a few months to get them all. Whether it is permanent or not only time will tell. I got my LHR done two years ago, and have not seen any increase in hair growth. But it did not remove all my hair. I still have a fair amount of fine white hair, but it doesn't bother me, and I have no beard shadow still, even after 24 hours.

This may be in the cards for me so i hope your hairs don't come back. I'm not looking forward to the process and have a consult in May.

Hope my hairs disappear as well!

Hugs,

Charlie

Spring,

From my experience, I have noticed that after the 10 - 14 Day mark after a LHR treatment, I had had little to no dark hairs growing on my face. I only had to shave every 2-3 days but that was mostly just my chin and jaw line, where I have some lighter colored hair. The period of no to little growth lasts about 10 - 14 days before the next cycle of growth begins.

I've had similar experience, only one session so far but after about a week and a half I started to notice the difference. Not as much hair reduction as you describe, Spring but still I was actually amazed. there are a few clear patches and I love rubbing them to feel how smooth they are in the midst of remaining stubble. The right side of my face was best, I never had much beard there and the laser knocked it right down to the very jaw line, I can totally notice if i don't shave a couple of days because the remaining isolated white hairs now stand out a mile! Don't know if anyone else noticed but they haven't said anything if they have. Anyway, hope you continue to get such great results it'll sure save a lot of money :)

      Congratulations and Happy Anniversary!!!! A beautiful milestone.    I hope to see you tonight...I just have to stay awake long enough!!

      It's funny with photos isn't it, how we think we look in them vs. how we actually do look in them! I'm hopeless at smiling and I have to try really hard not to frown or look like a zombie. I'm never sure how I come across to others.   I had a moment late last night when my eldest daughter facetimed my wife for some now forgotten reason, and when I was handed the tablet and talking to her, I was fixated on my image in the corner. My hair was wild at the time, I was a bit tipsy and all I saw was a woman! I have no idea what she saw in that context. I'll probably never know.

      I hope to see you on the Zoom meeting tonight, April.  I might be late, since I am doing lights and sound for a play that opened last night.  I was home before ten last night, so I think I'll be able to make it.   Today is an anniversary for me.  Seven years ago today, I stood up at the weekly community kaffeeklatsch as <deadname> and announced that henceforth I would be Kathy.  It went as well as I could have imagined: there were some surprised looks, but no hostility and lots of support.  A whole layer of stress disappeared that day and has never come back.  (There have been other stresses, but that one is gone.)  I have been me full-time ever since that moment.

      This is a scarily accurate description of what I feel!   I hope I don't sound too schmaltzy by saying this, but I remember when I signed up to this forum last year, during the sign-up process the question is asked, "Why do you want to join TransPulse?" to which I wrote, "Looking for a home where I can freely write about my issues and interact with similar people."    I think I just found one. ❤️

      Loving this woman I am becoming.

      Good morning, everyone!! I was up early again - already on my third cup of coffee having walked/fed the dog and read the local paper.   We have a birthday party for a friend to go to this afternoon but no real plans otherwise.   I hope to be able to attend tonight's TGP Zoom session. It's been weeks since I've been able to participate with the illness/loss of our dog, two horrible colds in succession and our trip to chase the solar eclipse.   Have a wonderful day and look for the goodness in it.

      I think we tend to be overly critical of our looks, whether we're trying to express ourselves as masculine, feminine or anywhere along the gender spectrum. For me, I use photos as a way to track my progress, to help me find my style and look and to help me find ways to improve myself in posture, looks, make-up, style......   I didn't really think about our FB avatar being public but then realized that when people search they do see it.   Since I'm not out to anyone but my wife, therapist, priest and people here, my FB page remains "that guy." I have created a Bitmoji that is relatively androgynous moving slowly towards the feminine. Long gray hair, earrings, softer features...I'm transitioning it along with myself. :-)
