Calculating the optimum intervals between hair removal sessions.

Posted in Interesting stuff

I am often asked, during training, “what is the best time to leave between laser/IPL treatment sessions?” This is actually quite tricky to answer.

I wondered about this for some time and then realised that I had to build a computer model to answer it correctly. So, I used Excel and built such a model.

It turns out that the answers are remarkably simple – once you understand the growth cycles. Please watch the video above for the answers…
