Everything You Need To Know About Laser Hair Removal

How does laser hair removal work?

Laser hair removal uses concentrated light energy to target the pigment (melanin) in your hair follicles. The light is absorbed by the follicle and converted into heat, which damages the follicle and inhibits  future hair growth,

how many session will I need?

Most clients need 6-8 sessions spaced about 4-6 weeks apart for optimal, long-lasting results. The number of sessions can vary depending on hair type, skin tone, and treatment area.

Can men get laser hair removal?

Absolutely. We treat many male clients for areas like the back, chest, neck, and beard line for long-term grooming ease.

When should I shave before my laser appointment?

Please shave the treatment area 24 hours before your session. Do not wax, pluck, or thread, as the hair follicle needs to be intact for the laser to work.

What should I avoid before my appointment?

Avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, and self-tanners for at least 1-2 weeks prior. Don't use active skincare products like retinols or acids on the treatment areas 3-5 days before.

What should I expect after my session?

You may experience mild redness or swelling, similar to a light sunburn, which usually resolves within 24-48 hours. Avoid heat, sweating, and sun exposure for 24 hours post-treatment.

Is there any downtime after laser hair removal?

There's no downtime. Most clients resume normal activities immediately, but we recommend avoiding workouts, hot showers, or saunas for 24 hours. 

How soon will I see results?

Many clients notice hair reduction after just one session, but full results develop over several treatments as the hair growth cycle progresses.

Can I get laser hair removal if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?

Laser hair removal is not recommended during pregnancy.

How long does each session take?

Treatment time depends on the area. Small areas like underarms take 15-30 minutes, while larger areas like legs or back make take 45-60 minutes.

What is the difference between shaving and laser hair removal?

Shaving cuts hair at the surface, while laser hair removal targets the follicle, offering long-term hair reduction and smoother skin without ingrown hairs or razor bumps.

Missing a session can delay your results. Try to stay on schedule every 4-6 weeks to ensure the laser targets the hair at the correct growth stage.
