How long does hair removal take?

Laser hair removal treatments are very effective, and the process is very quick and easy. You will usually be able to see changes in the growth of your hair after 1-3 session. However we do require a series of 10 treatments to ensure the best results.

During each of your sessions, the laser targets the pigment in the hair on your face, legs, or other treatment areas. Your individual hairs will grow at different times. As a result, we will be able to treat more of your hair follicles if we wait 4 to 6 weeks between each of your sessions.

The appointment time depends on the area that you are having treated. For facial areas or underarms it can be as quick as 5 minutes. If you are doing multiple or large areas, it can take up to 45 minutes.

What do I do in between appointments?

After your treatment, your provider will go over your after care instructions to ensure that you don't have any complications from your treatments. This includes things such as not elevating your body temperature for 24-48 hours after your treatment and exfoliating to avoid ingrown hairs. You are still able to shave remaining hairs in between appointments.
