Why Do I Need More Than One Laser Hair Removal Treatment?

Human hair has 3-4 different growth phases: anagen (growth), catagen (transitional phase between growth and rest), and telogen (resting). For laser hair removal to be effective, hair must be in the anagen phase. The human body has around five million hairs on it, and each hair operates independently. That’s why repeated hair removal sessions are needed to catch more hair in the growth phase. Laser energy has little effect on follicles in the transitional or resting phases, as the hair is already on the way out and not fully engaged in the follicle.

Frequently Asked Questions – Laser Hair Removal with Lutronic Clarity II

How does the Lutronic Clarity II work?

The Clarity II uses dual wavelengths — Alexandrite 755 nm and Nd:YAG 1064 nm — to target hair follicles safely and effectively while protecting surrounding skin. The laser energy disables the follicle, reducing hair growth over time. During treatment, the laser energy penetrates the skin to selectively heat and disable the follicle, preventing future hair growth while leaving surrounding skin untouched.

Who is a good candidate?

Ideal candidates are individuals with unwanted hair seeking a long-term solution. The Clarity II is safe and effective for all skin types, including darker tones, making it versatile for diverse clients.  More aggressive treatments can be provided during the winter and spring months. 

How many sessions are needed?

Hair grows in cycles, so multiple sessions are required for optimal results. Most clients need 6–8 sessions, spaced 4–8 weeks apart, depending on the treatment area and hair growth patterns.  Skin Bar in Austin encouraged patients to plan ahead, and begin treatments during the winter months.

Does it hurt?

Most clients experience minimal discomfort, often described as a mild snapping sensation. Cooling technology integrated into the Clarity II increases comfort during treatment.

Is there downtime?

Downtime is minimal. Temporary redness or mild swelling may occur, usually resolving within a few hours to a day. Most clients can resume normal activities immediately.

When will I see results?

Hair reduction becomes noticeable after the first few sessions, with progressive improvement after each subsequent treatment. Full results are typically seen after completing the recommended series of sessions.

How do I maintain results?

Periodic maintenance sessions may be recommended to target any remaining or newly grown hair. Daily sun protection and proper skincare help optimize treatment outcomes.
