• At time you may be frustrated that nothing happens
• New hair shafts continue to grow underneath the skin, reaching surface in 3-4 months
• By 6 months you will notice some difference when hair grows to cover the area
• It takes 10 months to actually see the result as hair grows 1 - 1.5 cm per month
