Laser hair removal is not a one-time fix. It is managed over several sessions, so the most common questions are how many sessions, how far apart, and how it compares with waxing. This guide from Linh Lan Waxing in District 1, Saigon covers maintenance and intervals, and how to choose between waxing and laser. Results and skin reactions vary from person to person.
Laser maintenance and intervals
Laser does not remove all hair at once. Hair grows in different phases, so we treat over several sessions and watch whether hair becomes finer and sparser.
- Sessions: Many people need several, depending on the area, hair thickness and skin.
- Interval: We usually suggest a gap of a few weeks (generally around 3 to 4 weeks), adjusted to the area and how fast your hair grows.
- Packages: Many guests choose a package with a set number of sessions. Please check the price list for what is included.
In the first few sessions, some hair may seem to come back. This relates to the hair growth cycle and varies a lot by person. If you are worried between sessions, contact your therapist.
Waxing or laser: which suits you?
- Laser may suit you if: Waxing pain bothers you or ingrown hairs keep coming back, and you have time for several sessions.
- Waxing may suit you if: You want to tidy up in one visit before a trip or event, or your skin or hair is not suited to laser.
For sensitive areas such as Brazilian, checking skin condition first matters whichever method you choose. If you are not sure, we can advise at a consultation based on your skin, hair and schedule.
How laser works at Linh Lan
Linh Lan uses a diode laser, and the manufacturer holds FDA, CE, ROHS and TUV certifications. We use cooling air before and after treatment and soothe the skin afterwards. Preparation and precautions are in part 1: women’s Brazilian laser hair removal guide.

Frequently asked questions

It depends on the area, hair thickness and skin. We explain the expected number at your first consultation.
Hair is growing back between sessions. Is it not working?
Hair grows in different phases, so some may come back. If you are worried, show your therapist.
