How does laser hair removal work?
Laser hair removal uses concentrated light energy to target the pigment in hair follicles. The heat disables the follicle’s ability to produce new hair without damaging surrounding skin. Over a series of treatments, hair growth is significantly reduced or eliminated.
How many sessions will I need?
Most clients require 6 to 8 treatments spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Hair grows in cycles, so multiple sessions ensure all follicles are effectively treated during their active phase.
Is laser hair removal permanent?
Laser treatments provide long-term hair reduction. While many enjoy permanent results, some may experience new hair growth due to hormonal changes and require occasional maintenance sessions.
Does it hurt?
Most patients describe the sensation as a mild snapping or warming feeling. Our devices have integrated cooling technology to keep treatments comfortable, and numbing options are available if needed.
Can all skin tones be treated?
Yes. We use advanced laser technology that is safe and effective for a wide range of skin tones, including darker complexions, with customized settings to ensure safety and results.
How should I prepare for my treatment?
Shave the treatment area 24 hours before your appointment. Avoid waxing, plucking, or bleaching hair for at least 4 weeks prior, and minimize sun exposure or tanning for 2 weeks before treatment.
What should I expect after treatment?
You may notice mild redness or swelling that typically resolves within a few hours to a couple of days. Avoid heat exposure, vigorous exercise, and direct sun for 24–48 hours. Use broad-spectrum sunscreen daily.
