hello again, just checking in, this is 4th day after treatment, looks the same as day three to me, itching has all but stopped though, which is nice.
if there is not much change I will probably post at day 7 and then not again until before my next session in 8 to 10 weeks.
Is there any disadvantage in waiting more then 10 weeks? Do I risk missing a follicles active cycle?
I would stick to the 8-10 week schedule just to be sure that most of the follicles being shot are producing growing hair. How much longer were you thinking of waiting beyond 8-10 weeks? I can’t tell if the fluid in the follicles is subsiding by this picture, even though I enlarged it. Glad the itching has lessened. An itch can be a b…!
probably only to about 12 weeks.
the fluid is subsiding.
it looks the same today as yesterday, will take a picture tomorrow i think.
It’s not easy taking a picture of the back of my own neck!

Twelve weeks is getting close to the borderline, but still may be okay? For simplicity, I tell my clients, after a hair is tweezed, it will regrow in 6-16 weeks. Simplicity is needed to explain hair growth cycles because there are so many if’s, and’s and buts’.
According to a published regrowth chart where the authors have observed hair growth cycles in some areas, the average resting stage of hair from area to area is anywhere from 4 weeks to 16 weeks with the exception of the beard where a hair can be in anagen for 52 weeks. This chart excludes scalp hair where the anagen stage can be seven years!
Looking forward to your next picture. Maybe someone can help you take a picture???
6th day
not much change from day 4.
Less redness, but little change… will post weekly from now on.
