Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal uses broad-spectrum light to target and heat the melanin in hair follicles, gradually reducing hair growth over time.
The light is absorbed by the pigment in the hair, converting to heat and damaging the follicle to inhibit future hair growth.
Most body areas can be treated including face, underarms, arms, legs, bikini line, chest, back, and more.
Most people experience a mild, quick snapping sensation similar to a rubber band flick. Cooling gel is used to enhance comfort.
On average, 6-10 sessions are required, spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Some may need maintenance sessions after the initial course.
There is no real downtime. You may experience mild redness or warmth, which usually settles within a few hours.
You may start to see slower regrowth and finer hairs after the first few sessions. Full results develop gradually over the course.
Yes, shaving is the only recommended hair removal method between treatments. Avoid waxing, threading, or plucking.
Avoid sun exposure, fake tan, exfoliation, and heat (saunas, hot showers) 24-48 hours before and after. Always wear SPF.
Mild redness, swelling, or tingling may occur. Rare side effects include pigmentation changes, especially in darker skin types.
Laser hair removal is suitable for Fitzpatrick skin types I-V. Caution is required with darker tones. Type VI is generally not recommended.
