If you’re tired of shaving, waxing, or plucking unwanted facial and body hairs yourself, laser hair removal could be the perfect solution to achieving smooth skin quickly and efficiently. Laser is quick, safe, and provides effective results – the ideal combination.
Different body parts respond differently to laser therapy treatments. Areas like the face and neck require precise laser spot sizes in order to target pesky hairs while other areas, like legs, are usually easier to treat with laser.
Face & Neck
Laser hair removal is an increasingly popular aesthetic treatment as it eliminates the need for shaving or waxing, and effectively gets rid of unwanted facial and neck hair. A diode laser heats the pigment found in hair follicles to destroy them without harming nearby skin cells – an easy noninvasive solution!
Women typically seek laser hair removal treatment on their upper lips, cheeks, chin and neck areas while men usually opt for their beard lines or necks. Laser treatments can effectively and permanently eliminate hair in all these regions without pain or discomfort; additionally they can prevent ingrown hairs, razor burns and reduce facial shaving frequency significantly.
Prior to undergoing laser hair removal, it’s advisable to avoid sun exposure and tanning products as this treatment cannot work effectively on tanned skin. You should also avoid chemical peels or procedures which might irritate the skin on the day of your procedure; for advice regarding skincare practices prior to the appointment consult a dermatologist.
Before your laser hair removal appointment, it’s wise to shave the area, making sure only enough shaving has occurred to expose hair follicles. Also avoid any other forms of hair removal like waxing or plucking within six weeks prior to scheduling your laser appointment. For lighter complexions a doctor can prescribe bleaching cream that will prepare the surface of skin for laser treatment.
Men tend to use laser hair removal on their faces and necks, helping them forgo shaving altogether. Furthermore, it can help with back and shoulder hair removal that’s hard to reach with razors – all the while being much less painful than waxing – thus decreasing ingrown hairs after shaving.
Laser hair removal for women typically focuses on armpits and legs; it may also be suitable for buttocks and peri-anal regions. As shaving and waxing can be time consuming and painful tasks, investing in laser hair removal could save both money and time over time.
Bikini Line
Bikini area hair removal can be a delicate matter for some people, as shaving and waxing may result in razor burn or ingrown hairs, and for women it may even be embarrassing if even small amounts of pubic hair remain. Laser hair removal offers an effective yet safe solution, suitable for most skin types and colors.
With bikini laser hair removal, you can finally say goodbye to razor burn and ingrown hairs while enjoying smooth skin in all the latest swimwear this summer! Laser treatment is one of the most efficient means of eliminating unwanted hair permanently.
There are various techniques for laser hair removal in the pubic region, but two of the most popular are bikini line and Brazilian. Bikini line laser hair removal removes only those strands of hair visible beneath a swimsuit or panties between your creased thighs and hipline; leaving only a little strip at the front of your pubic region visible; Brazilian laser hair removal can eliminate all but a tiny landing strip (known as landing strip in Brazil).
Both options are popular among our South Florida clients who strive to look beach-ready during the summer. It is recommended to schedule six to eight treatments prior to beginning, to ensure optimal results and prevent regrowth when other parts of your hair reach active phase.

Underarms
Armpits are an excellent area for laser hair removal as the results can last long-term. While shaving may be uncomfortable and waxing may cause painful ingrown hairs, laser treatment offers an efficient alternative that provides long-term relief.
Laser energy passes through the skin and into hair follicles that contain dark pigmentation, heating up and destroying them in order to stop further hair production. This is what makes laser treatment such an effective treatment – not only is its aim color specific, but also structural.
Before beginning, your professional will cleanse and apply mild anesthetic cream to alleviate discomfort if necessary. They’ll then use a handheld device over your underarm area and deliver short pulses of light energy; you may feel little “stings,” like rubber bands snapping against your skin; this pain should only last several minutes and is tolerable; your professional may use cooling gel or sprays on the skin to reduce any unnecessary pain.
Once your procedure is finished, your skin may feel red or swollen – this is often an indicator that the hair follicles have been destroyed and should subside within several hours. If irritation continues after this period has elapsed, an ice pack can help soothe irritation in that area. Furthermore, any use of sunless tanning or hair removal methods before treatment should also be avoided to minimize side effects.
If you have been shaving your underarms on an ongoing basis, laser treatment could help provide desired results. Shaving can lead to the regrowth of coarse dark hair in this area; laser therapy helps minimize this. Note that laser treatments don’t offer permanent solutions and touch-up treatments may be needed occasionally.

Legs
As hair growth on legs is typically more noticeable than elsewhere on the body, laser hair removal treatment of unwanted leg hair is increasingly popular among both men and women alike. Shaving or waxing require messy manual procedures with potential discomfort associated with waxing; laser treatment takes less than 5 minutes without leaving behind any debris or residual pain after treatment is completed.
Laser treatments offer an alternative method of hair removal that targets hair follicles directly, and destroys them so they cannot regrow over time, leading to permanently smooth skin with no signs of unwanted hair growth.
Though laser treatments may yield long-term results, annual maintenance sessions should be attended for optimal results and to keep legs looking hairless and smooth. Attending these sessions may help limit hair growth as well as limit frequency and thickness of new growth.
Before your laser hair removal session, we advise avoiding sunless tanning creams as these can darken your skin and darkening of existing spots on the surface of the skin. Furthermore, you should also shave or trim any existing hair a day prior to treatment, when we will apply topical anesthetic for added comfort during each step – you may experience a snapping sensation as Harmony XL PRO handpiece targets and removes each individual hair.
Laser hair removal has quickly become one of the most sought-after solutions for both men and women who seek an easy alternative to shaving and waxing. Thanks to our cutting-edge laser technology, large body areas can now be treated efficiently in less time with better results than ever.
