When will see shedding? Hair loss after treatment?

Hi everyone

I have had laser in the past but I’ve forgotten as its been 10 years when should I start to see loss of hair after treatment? Ive read so many different time frames online that Im not sure.

I am Fitzpatrick type 1 or 2 depending who you ask
Treatment with Polaris NG Yag
All I can tell you about settings on first appointment was it was set at 26 (means nothing to me)
No idea about spot size if Im honest

Treated on upper lip, underarms, bikini brazilian and legs/toes

5 days ago now and hair looks to be growing but from what I understand this is normal

Thanks all

I don’t remember exactly when I started shedding after treatments but it should start by week 2 and finish by week 3. At first the tombstone hairs will appear to be growing but they should fall out. You can take tweezers and slowly pull on these hairs,if they pull out without a lot of resistance or typical tweezing pain, then it’s a good sign.

Thanks for replying :slight_smile:

Im not ready to panic yet

It could be anything from a week to 3 weeks, but most prominent around the 2 week mark usually.
Fitzpatrick 1/2 on NdYag? I hope your hair is very black and thick so you get the desired results.

My hair is very dark indeed and thick course maybe everywhere except upper legs its dark but feels fluffy in comparison
