Laser Hair Removal: Smooth Skin Starts Here
Laser Hair Removal: Smooth Skin Starts Here
Say goodbye to constant shaving, waxing, and plucking. At our aesthetic medical spa, we offer laser hair removal, a highly effective treatment that uses focused light energy to reduce unwanted hair growth—leaving your skin silky smooth for the long run.
How It Works
Laser hair removal targets the pigment (melanin) in your hair. When the laser is applied, the light is absorbed by the hair follicle, converting to heat and safely damaging the follicle at the root. This slows or prevents future growth.
While it's not always permanent, laser hair removal offers long-lasting results—and most guests notice significantly reduced regrowth after a series of treatments.
Ideal for Many Skin Types
Laser hair removal works best on individuals with lighter skin and darker hair, but thanks to advancements in technology, we can treat a wide range of skin tones safely and effectively. It’s important to note that lighter hair colors—like blonde, red, gray, or white—may respond less effectively, but new innovations are constantly improving outcomes.
Common Treatment Areas
We can treat almost any area of the body with unwanted hair, including:
Legs
Underarms
Bikini line
Upper lip and chin
Back and chest
We avoid the eye area for safety reasons and cannot treat skin with tattoos.
What to Expect
Laser hair removal typically requires multiple sessions—usually spaced a few weeks apart—since your hair grows in cycles. The number of treatments depends on the area being treated and your individual hair type. Smaller areas, like the upper lip, can be treated in just minutes, while larger areas, like the back or legs, may take longer.
During your session, we’ll provide protective eyewear and may apply a cooling gel or device for comfort. Most clients describe the sensation as a quick snap or warm pinprick.
Aftercare and Results
Mild redness or swelling may occur post-treatment, similar to a light sunburn, and typically subsides within a few hours. You can apply ice packs for relief, and we may recommend a gentle cream if needed.
It’s important to avoid sun exposure and tanning beds before and after your treatments. Always wear SPF 30 or higher on the treated areas.
Hair doesn’t fall out immediately—you’ll notice gradual shedding over the following days or weeks. With each session, you’ll see less regrowth, and what does return tends to be finer and lighter.
Is Laser Hair Removal Safe?
Absolutely—when performed by trained professionals in a medical setting. At our spa, treatments are performed by licensed providers under the supervision of experienced medical professionals. We tailor each session to your skin and hair type to ensure both safety and the best possible outcome.
Side effects are generally minimal and may include:
Temporary skin irritation
Slight changes in skin tone (more common in darker skin tones or those who tan before/after treatment)
Rare side effects can include blistering or scarring, but these are extremely uncommon when treatment guidelines are followed.
Preparing for Your Appointment
To ensure the best results:
Shave the area the day before your treatment
Avoid waxing, plucking, or electrolysis for 4 weeks beforehand
Steer clear of sun exposure and tanning products
Skip blood-thinning medications (consult your provider first)
What About At-Home Devices?
Home laser devices do exist, but they typically deliver less powerful results and aren’t suitable for all skin or hair types. For optimal safety and effectiveness, professional treatments in a clinical setting are the gold standard.
