I would like to inquire about the recommended number of laser hair removal sessions and the frequency.

May is almost over.

I am planning to schedule laser hair removal to prepare for the upcoming summer. Shaving with a razor at home every time has made my skin rough and caused severe irritation, so this time I intend to consult a professional to receive proper laser hair removal care. I am posting this to gather some information before my consultation. Generally, how many laser hair removal sessions are recommended to achieve semi-permanent results?

I understand that 5-session packages are commonly used, but I am wondering if the recommended 5 sessions are sufficient to achieve sufficiently smooth skin even in areas with thick, dark hair. If hair continues to grow after 5 sessions, I will need additional treatments; I would like to know how much the recommended number of sessions required to achieve a satisfactory result varies from person to person on average. Also, what is the most efficient way to adjust the intervals between treatments to meet the recommended number of sessions? I don't think simply getting treatments frequently is necessarily better, so I would appreciate it if you could provide a guideline for the most effective recommended number of sessions.
