I would like to remove hair from back, shoulders and upper arms. I am somewhat hairy male, and I would like to avoid a line between the lasered parts and non-lasered parts. Is there a way to fade, taper or transition with the laser by doing it less often in the transition areas? I went to two consultations, one place recommended doing my arms only 3 times the hair would thin out in those areas and doing the back/shoulders to completion. Another place, said that transitions don’t work and that I either have to do the whole arms or live with having an artificial looking line between the treated and untreated parts. Is there a way to successfully transition with laser? Has anyone who is hairy had success with fading/transitioning?
I’m currently undegoing laser for back, shoulders and upper arms. There is so much speculation on the internet about what can and cannot be done with laser, from personal experience I can say its all down to the laser technicians efficiency, I got screwed over by my first laser technician, resulting in burns and stimulated growth. However, I found another laser technician nearby who has people flying from different countries to use her and she has shown me several cases where she has tapered off the arm hair, i am currently one session in on the arms out of 3 and it looks good so far so I will let you know how it goes.
She is doing my lower arms 3 times, and my upper arms 6 times in total. In our sessions she marks out my arms into small sections to ensure she knows what parts she has covered and then she goes over them with one head, she then overlaps it again with another head so essentially she has covered it twice to avoid patchiness in the final result.
what did the first laser technician do to cause hair stimulation? I really want my upper arms done but worried about the mixed experiences i read about.
