Frequently Asked Questions

Each client's results may vary based on factors like hair color, skin type, and individual response. While we cannot guarantee a specific number of treatments, we recommend starting with 6-12 sessions for optimal results, with many clients seeing 60-90% hair reduction after the initial series. We advise ISL clients maintenance sessions may be required based on hair growth cycles, skin type, hormonal changes, and lifestyle factors to maintain results.
