I have shaved my arm will i have normal soft hair after first session of laser not rough?

No: Laser hair removal is actually laser hair reduction. Hair has three growth phases, and only one phase is eliminated by laser. There needs to be multiple treatments to get a higher percentage of hair reduction. Usually 5-9 treatments are necessary
