Hi,
Welcome and thanks for posting oyur query to HCM.
I can understand your concern about facial hair but you have not told us about certain things related to hair growth such as- any menstrual irregularities, growth of hair on other parts of body, any pimples on face, obesity or overweight status, family history and the type of laser used with frequency of laser done in twp years.
Hair growth is a common problem in today's word and can be treated well with different lasers. But if someone have any above of the enumerated factors then these also need proper correction for long period of time. As these important factors leads to the excess of the testosterone hormone which is the main factor in hair growth. It needs a proper follow up with an endocrinologist who can take care of hormonal excess and a dermatologist to take care of the hair by most effective laser technique.
Hope this information will help you.
