I had Lazer done on face, chest, arms, legs, and genitals. You need to do like 8-12 sessions but I haven't had to shave in years. Though there are like 5 clear hairs now that I pluck.

You can get rid of the clear hairs with electrolysis, they have to target each hair individually but if you've only got 5 it won't take very long

Yeah, I just keep forgetting to make an appointment.

Are the many sessions because you only do small areas per session, or because you need to do the whole area repeatedly?

Repeated, hair growth happens on different cycles and not all will be active at the same time. Need a short root for the Lazer energy to kill the root and sometimes one hit does not kill the base and needs to be hit again. https://milanlaser.com/inclusive-clientele/trans

You need to get the whole area done repeatedly, the follicles only die if they get zapped during a certain phase in their growth cycle. Typically laser sessions are spaced about a month apart to allow time for previously killed hairs to fall out and the remaining ones to make some progress in their cycle, you can expect to lose like 10-20% of the remaining hairs with each session.
