Legs: Nearly done after 3 treatments??

So I don’t really have a good picture of how my legs looked pre-laser (you can “kind of” see it in this photo):

Anyways, it’s been nearly 12 weeks since my last treatment with Gentlelase (18mm/16J), and here’s how it looks now:

That’s all the lower leg. The upper leg/thigh still needs a couple more treatments, but do you guys think I should do the lower leg again? If I don’t, I can save about $150 only doing half my leg, but I also wonder how much more reduction I could get on the lower leg, or even if such reduction would look ok. Clearly the inner side of the lower leg has a bunch of hair on it, but it seems to be a lot finer than what it was. Not sure if I should consider switching to electrolysis at some point to kind of be more precise, or just laser it a little more to reduce it further. I’m also wondering if I need to wait loner to see how much more hair grows, but I also don’t want to miss the cycle, so yea… thoughts please? :slight_smile:

So I realized I didn’t really ask a clear question (and I realize posting this also bumps this up – not sure what the rules are on that, so sorry!!) How long should I wait before I decide if I like the reduction I have or to do another treatment? I don’t really want to miss the cycle though so if I want to get another treatment, it should be in the next few weeks

You should not worry about cycles. If you see enough hair to warrant a treatment, have it.

For legs, it is usually recommended here to have treatments 12-16 weeks apart- even for the first few treatments. Since you have already had 3 treatments, I don’t think waiting for longer than 12 weeks would cause any problem. Just go when you think there’s enough thick hair.

Alright thanks. Normally I’m better at judging this haha. I’m doing it again next week. I hope it also helps to get rid of the parts of my leg that looks I shaved it -.-
