Thanks for keeping this updated. I think the results look great.
It’s been more than 14 months now after my final laser treatment. The After photos were taken in July: exactly at 14 month post last treatment. I did not shave, trim or wax during this period. The Before photos were taken in May of 2010. I have observed no continuous regrowth of any kind so the reduction that laser offers is permanent. I’d guesstimate that my results are about 80%+.
I noticed that some of my earlier photos are gone by now. So I hope these photos stick around for a while to benefit others who are researching options for hair removal.

Thank you anotherdude.
Perfectly done. “Good on 'ya.”
Hair density and pattern is exactly what looks natural and correct. Nice!
Is that amount of hair normal after laser? I’d expect if the folicles were killed there would be minimal regrowth. Sure it’s alot less than he started with, but to me I would have expected there to be alot less.

It really depends on a lot of factors. To me, most of the remaining hair looks too fine to respond to Laser, so that would be a significant reason why it is still there. It may also be that the technician treated in such a way that there would be reduction in mainly thicker hairs rather than trying to clear everything.
That is exactly what I’d expect as it’s what I achieved with 5 sessions on brazillian and underarms, three years ago. There is still black hair growing but it’s less thick hair and looks heaps natural while being (to me) more aesthetically pleasing and comfy… Laser has its limits and no one has only dark, coarse hair without naturally thinner and lighter hairs dispersed around the areas as well.
I think for a guy it looks like the perfect outcome as well - still some hair left so it looks manly but not enough to be irritating. It’s at a stage, otherwise, where it could be finished off with electrolysis.
