A Comfortable, Step-by-Step Experience

Consultation & Prep
Your session begins with a consultation to assess skin and hair type, expectations, and treatment area. The specialist will clean your skin, trim hair as needed, and apply a topical numbing cream for comfort.

Laser Application
A high-energy laser delivers gentle light pulses to target hair follicles. Cooling gel or cold air minimizes discomfort while protecting the skin. A “test pulse” ensures the settings are correct before full treatment begins.

Treatment Sensation
You may feel a mild “zap” as the laser targets each follicle, but most patients find it tolerable. The length of the session depends on the size of the area being treated, typically less than an hour.

Post-Treatment Care
After treatment, a soothing gel is applied, and your provider will give instructions for caring for the treated area. Hair will gradually fall out over days and weeks following the session.

Sessions & Results
Laser Hair Removal works on hairs in the growth stage, so 3–7 treatments are usually needed for long-term results. Sessions are spaced based on the area being treated, and occasional touch-ups may be recommended.
