Laser hair removal has quickly become one of the hottest trends in beauty, offering permanent solutions that save both time and money in comparison with shaving & waxing. When performed properly, laser can offer long-term benefits that could potentially free you from shaving & waxing altogether.
Laser treatments may cause mild discomfort; however, they’re considerably less painful than waxing and often faster too!
Face
Laser hair removal can be an ideal way for both men and women to quickly eliminate unwanted facial and body hair. This treatment significantly decreases time and effort required to keep a hair-free appearance by targeting pigment in hair follicles & converting it to heat, which destroys follicles & prevents them from producing new hair growth – unlike waxing which often results in ingrown hairs, razor burn & itchy skin conditions; laser treatments tend to be nearly painless treatments.
Laser hair removal treatments are safe and effective on all skin types, from fair complexions to those with darker complexions or artificial tanning. If you are contemplating laser hair removal treatments, tanning before or during your sessions may influence how the laser treats the skin; additionally, depilatory creams or waxing products that remove surface hair follicles could make it impossible for the laser to effectively target its root and destroy hair growth.
Herpes sufferers should notify their esthetician prior to beginning laser treatments as this heat could potentially trigger herpes outbreaks. Furthermore, these individuals should take antiviral medications before and after treatments so as to reduce any possible flare-ups of herpes virus outbreak.
Laser hair removal in Cedar Park & Austin, TX can provide the ideal solution to eliminating shaving, tweezing and waxing altogether. Multiple sessions (usually six) may be required to achieve long-term hair reduction – yet the benefits far outweigh their cost in terms of future appointments. A single session might cost more than waxing services upfront but will ultimately save money over time by eliminating future sessions altogether.
Chest
Laser hair removal offers a safe, permanent solution for unwanted chest hair. This treatment involves emitting a light beam which targets melanin (the pigment that gives skin its color) in hair follicles to destroy them and inhibit future growth. Laser treatment is faster and less painful than traditional methods like shaving, waxing or tweezing but requires multiple sessions to effectively inhibit hair growth; typically six or more treatments will be necessary before permanent hair reduction is achieved.
Before your initial treatment, it’s essential to prepare the area appropriately. Make sure it’s free from sunless tanners, exercise, hot showers, caffeine and anything that may increase skin sensitivity – such as tanning products.

Back
No matter the texture, thickness, density or sparsity of your hair, laser treatment can permanently reduce it. Safe for all areas of the body and quick to complete without causing discomfort – laser removal is FDA approved as a permanent method for hair removal!
Men can use laser treatments as an effective way of alleviating razor burn and ingrown hairs. Furthermore, laser can even help straighten beard lines and remove stubble. While they may initially experience red, inflamed skin following treatment sessions, this should subside over time – just follow your Aesthetician’s care instructions in regards to sun exposure etc.
Laser hair removal performed by an Aesthetician can be an enjoyable and non-anesthetic experience, often similar to snapping rubber bands against the skin. Laser rays mark melanin pigmentation within hair follicles to disable growth of new hair follicles; typically this process lasts 30 minutes.
Laser hair removal can be a less painful solution than waxing, which may be especially uncomfortable on sensitive areas. Furthermore, it provides a safer alternative than shaving as it doesn’t damage skin cells during removal.
Before your laser hair removal session, it is wise to refrain from using cosmetic creams or waxes on the target area as these can make you more vulnerable to heat from the laser. In addition, tanning should be avoided as well as taking aspirin or ibuprofen as they could make you more receptive to its heat from laser. If taking antibiotics such as tetracycline or doxycycline which could make you photosensitive should consult with a healthcare provider prior to proceeding. A week prior to treatment date you should avoid products containing Retin-A, Triluma Vitamin C or Nair products as these medications could make photosensitivity worsened during sessions of laser hair removal treatment.
Underarms
After years of shaving, underarm areas can often develop ingrown hairs and razor bumps that become infected with ingrown hairs or razor burn. Laser Hair Removal for underarms offers a quick, safe way to permanently eliminate unwanted hair growth – taking less than 10 minutes per treatment session for permanent results that mean never again dealing with stubble or razor burn!
Handheld laser devices are used to target pigment in unwanted hair and convert it into heat, which destroys its follicle and inhibits future growth. You may feel warmth or “rubber band snap” sensation during treatment but this should not be painful. Prior to laser hair removal sessions it’s important to avoid tanning, especially self-tanners as these can impede light’s ability to penetrate skin deeply enough for effective laser light absorption.
Men often turn to laser hair removal to soothe razor burn and the “shadow” effect from shaving their back and shoulders, and straighten their beard lines or eliminate unsightly stray hairs that often grow between the shaved areas.
During your treatment, protective goggles will be worn to shield your eyes from laser beam. Once on a treatment table, a technician will use hand-held laser to target areas on your body requiring permanent hair removal. Most likely you’ll require between 6-9 treatments as your body grows back hair on its own schedule.
Laser hair removal not only permanently reduces unwanted hair, but it can also provide numerous other skin health benefits. It can reduce fine lines & wrinkles, redness, sun damage minimization and texture improvement. Laser hair removal is an ideal solution for men and women alike looking to permanently get rid of unwanted hair on the face, chest, legs, back, underarms & bikini line.
Legs
Many women spend considerable time grooming their legs so as to feel confident when wearing skirts or shorts, and laser hair removal can be an excellent solution. One session with the Triton applicator’s cooling sapphire tip helps minimize discomfort; you also have the option of adding numbing gel for additional relaxation during treatment. In order to have optimal results from laser hair removal sessions it is recommended that both legs are completely shaven as the laser targets pigment in the root of each hair follicle, and sun exposure as well as self tanners should also be avoided prior to booking an appointment time slot.
