Hair Removal FAQs

• Does laser hair removal work for permanent hair removal?

  Laser hair removal is a popular technique many use to achieve significantly smoother, longer-lasting results than conventional methods. While it isn’t necessarily permanent, the regrowth of hairs often appears lighter in color and finer than before treatment – meaning fewer touchups are needed over time with laser treatments for long-term reduction.

• Does hair grow back years after laser?

  Say goodbye to unwanted hair with a laser session that causes a visible reduction in growth – an effective solution for the long term! With every treatment, you’ll be one step closer to smoother skin as existing follicles are damaged. While it may take time before your treated areas start regrowing again, each successful session improves and maintains results.

• How many sessions of laser until the hair is gone?

  Every person’s hair growth cycle is unique, and the number of treatments to see results varies. Generally speaking, most patients will find success after four to six visits spaced out every few weeks – although some may need up to eight sessions.

• Do you shave before laser hair removal?

  To prepare for your laser hair removal appointment, give yourself a good shave the night before or in the morning. This will help ensure you don’t waste any precious laser energy – instead, focus on tidying up unwanted body fuzz!

• Why does the hair take two weeks to leave after the laser?

  Lasers can potentially eliminate hair, but they are most potent when used while the follicles are in their active growth stage. During one laser treatment session, only 15 percent of your hairs can be killed off – you’ll know it’s working as these will begin shedding five days after therapy and continue for up to two weeks afterward.

• What to expect after 1st laser hair removal?

  Utilizing the power of a laser, unwanted hair is quickly and effectively reduced with no need for tedious plucking or waxing. The skin may become temporarily inflamed following treatment – like after spending too long in the sun without sunscreen – but this sensation will soon pass.

• When can I shower after laser hair removal?

  After laser hair removal, give your skin a chance to rest! Wait at least 6-8 hours before you shower with tepid water. Avoid using harsh products such as scrubs or exfoliating mitts on the treated area for up to 24 hours to enjoy smooth, healthy-looking skin.

• Can I shave in between laser treatments?

  Laser hair removal is a great way to deal with unwanted facial and body hair! Additionally, you don’t have to stop shaving between sessions – it’s normal for some inches to start regrowing during your treatment. After just one session, you’ll likely find fewer hairs growing back than before. After several sessions, you can expect even more dramatic results – often only needing an occasional shave every 4-6 weeks!
