Unhappy After laser treatment- how long till the hair falls out???

It's been a week, and I still look, well, awful. Isn't the hair supposed to start falling out now???
Please help - I'm starting to think the laser treatment did not work.

Hi there. . .I've been getting laser done for about 6 months now, and they say that sometimes it can take up to 2 weeks, so be patient (I know it's hard sometimes!). But if nothing happens after 2 weeks, then I'd call them and get it checked out. Good luck!

oh, and also, don't expect all the hair in any given area to fall out after just 1 treatment. . .for me, only about a third of the hairs (if that) actually fell out after the first treatment. It usually takes at least 3 times to get a significant reduction.

Thanks for your reply. I am going nuts - patience has never been my strength. Since I had some falling out the same night I thought it would happen more quickly. Sigh... two weeks?
Can't wait for the next treatment then.

after my first treatment, I found that I had loads of hairs coming out after about 10 days. I can now go about 4 days without shaving (which is a record!), I am not completely hair free, but its more patchy, and the areas where the laser worked are either hair free or the hair has grown in fairer and softer.

don't panic....it WILL work!

Thanks both of you for the encouragement. Since you've done laser, would you mind taking a look at my post from last week? No one answered my questions.
Thank you thank you thank you!
