Laser hair removal is a noninvasive technique that uses light pulses to interrupt or stop further hair growth. Melanin in hair follicles absorbs this light energy and converts it into heat energy, eventually disabling future hair growth.
Laser hair reduction treatments are safe to use on many parts of the body, including legs, arms, back, face and sensitive areas such as areolas and groins. Ultimately though, four to six treatments may be required before reaching permanent hair reduction.
1. Face
Laser hair removal offers an effective alternative to shaving and waxing for eliminating unwanted facial hair without the pain and expense. Treatment entails wearing protective eyewear while the laser emits pulses of light to dislodge unwanted follicles from your skin – it may take short sessions but most areas can be treated quickly and painlessly; unlike traditional methods, treatments don’t need to be repeated frequently; making laser treatments an attractive solution for women looking for relief from continually shaving their beard hair or men looking to eliminate beard hair growth.
Laser treatments can also be an effective solution for eliminating stretch marks. With the Icon fractional laser, you can effectively and non-invasively erase those stretch marks so they become less visible – an invaluable treatment option for anyone aspiring to look their best!
Schedule a session with one of our aesthetic practitioners, and discuss your desired results as well as ask any questions that arise. We can offer guidance as you prepare for your appointment; such as refraining from shaving the area prior to having treatment done and not using products which could irritate skin irritation.
Laser hair removal is most often applied to areas such as the face, arms, back, legs and underarms. This semi-permanent solution can drastically reduce or even eliminate the need for shaving, waxing and tweezing in these areas, saving time and money as well as potentially eliminating ingrown hairs altogether.
2. Bikini
Shaving is a time-consuming task that often leaves embarrassing rashes and bumps behind, whereas laser hair removal offers an effective, safe solution. Laser can permanently reduce or even eradicate unwanted body hair in sensitive areas like bikini lines. You’ll feel more confident wearing sleeveless tops and swimwear without fear of unsightly underarm hair or bumpy bikini lines with its bumps or bumps causing embarrassing rashes or rashes from shaving, as GentleLase Pro permanently reduces growth allowing you to stop shaving altogether – leaving behind unsightly underarm hair or bumpy rash-causing bikini lines or unsightly underarm hair causing them as you ditched the razor forever!
3. Chest
Hair removal is one of the most sought-after cosmetic procedures available to women today, with benefits including smooth skin free from hair as well as cost savings from not using non permanent methods like waxing and shaving. Unfortunately, laser hair reduction prices can be costly; their total costs depend on factors such as the area that needs treating as well as where and who will perform the procedure.
Large areas like the back and legs tend to cost more than smaller spots like chin or eyebrows for laser hair removal due to being more challenging and demanding of skilled practitioners. Furthermore, laser treatment costs usually per treatment session; depending on your unique case it could take four or six visits for you to achieve desired results.
Laser hair removal centers now provide cost-effective EMI options to make the procedure more accessible, and may offer discounted packages with multiple sessions that could save even more money.
Location will also play a factor in the price of laser hair removal treatments, according to the 2020 American Society of Plastic Surgeons Report. A majority of laser treatments take place on coastal regions compared with other regions, meaning costs tend to be higher there compared with elsewhere. You should expect higher costs if choosing an experienced provider as well.
4. Back
Laser hair removal offers an efficient and non-invasive solution for eliminating unwanted hair on arms, legs, back, underarms, chest, bikini line and bikini area. It’s non-invasive and quick compared with shaving, waxing and plucking while eliminating pain caused by shaving, waxing or plucking; any remaining small amounts that grow back can easily be managed through touch up treatments a few times each year.
Laser treatments can also be used to diminish the appearance of scars, stretch marks and other skin blemishes on your body. We utilize Icon fractional laser technology to effectively reduce scarring while evening out skin tone for a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
Laser treatments can also help enhance your facial features. Laser hair removal can be used to sculpt the jawline, define eyebrows, soften nasolabial folds and cheek areas, make the nose seem thinner as well as remove sagging facial skin rejuvenate necklines reduce wrinkles around eyes mouth cheeks

Your initial consultation will address how many laser treatments will be necessary to reach your desired outcomes. Some patients may require multiple sessions while others can see results after just one. Your treatment regimen depends on many factors including skin color and thickness as well as age and metabolism.
5. Legs
Laser hair removal is one of the most sought-after noninvasive cosmetic treatments, offering hair removal on facial, chest, back, armpits or legs as well as decreasing stretch marks after pregnancy. Laser pulses target pigment of hair follicles which then absorb them and destroy them while simultaneously inhibiting future hair growth. Multiple sessions are generally spaced four to six weeks apart depending on color/coarseness/hormonal influences as well as area treated.
Before your laser treatment, begin by shaving the area of skin being treated and applying a topical anesthetic. Your practitioner may then use cooling gel or air spray on your skin before administering a laser beam; you may feel something similar to rubber bands snapping against the skin or experiencing sunburn-like symptoms during this procedure; additional smoke puffs caused when hair follicles are destroyed may give off an unpleasant sulfurous scent.
Duration of procedure depends on the area being treated and may range from several minutes to an hour or more. Following treatment, skin may feel red and swollen for some time afterward; you can moisturize with cream while applying a cold compress for relief from pain and swelling. In order to ensure best results from sunlight exposure for treatments using light sunscreens is advised.
Opting for laser treatment requires selecting a licensed practitioner as the procedure is tightly regulated and potentially life-threatening if performed incorrectly. Only practitioners holding either registered nurse status (RN) or higher levels of professional certification are authorized to offer laser therapy treatments.
