Having yourself sun baths in summer will be excluded from your list when planning for LHR, even before commencing the treatment.hellogiggles.com
You can’t get LHR with tanned skin (though newer technologies may help). Plus, exposing your bare skin after treatment into the sun increases the chances of pigmentation disorders. - The timeline

Even the best physicians out there would say that usually 70% of the hairs (single hair follicles) are permanently removed. The remaining hair follicles will regrow over time and thus, you might need to undergo maintenance treatment every 4 to 6 months to remove those new hairs.
When it comes to investing a chunk of your hard earned money on your appearance, you can’t turn eyes over ears to any factor. So, think briefly. Hope this checklist will clear your few doubts on LHR.
