Laser hair removal works by disabling the hair follicles responsible for creating unwanted hair growth, providing an effective long-term solution for decreasing unwanted hair and preventing future growth.
Contrary to in-office treatments, most at-home devices utilizing IPL technology use IPL-targeting devices instead of lasers for targeting pigment and disabling hair follicles through heat. Unfortunately, many devices may not be appropriate for all skin tones; particularly true type-six Fitzpatrick scale dark-brown skin tones.
1. Tria Beauty True Laser Hair Remover
The 4X laser hair removal device is FDA-cleared to use diode laser technology like those used by dermatologists at home, yet at an extremely cost-effective price. The 4X’s beams of light target melanin in hair follicles to temporarily disable them without harming nearby skin – over a series of treatments your hair should gradually return lighter and thinner, or even stop growing altogether!
As it’s cordless, the device offers more freedom during treatments (compared with IPL machines) and can be utilized in a wide variety of places. A dead battery could interrupt treatment in midway; for this reason it’s wise to keep extra batteries handy at all times.
One downside of laser devices is their potential discomfort; you might feel flashes of light warm your skin a little before snapping against areas with thicker or darker hair – although most devices offer sensitive mode settings that make sessions more bearable for all users.
2. ThermaCell Hair Remover
Laser hair removal provides an effective permanent solution to unwanted body hair. Laser light safely absorbs pigment in hair to convert to heat, damaging follicles that produce unwanted body hair follicles and eventually stopping or significantly delaying growth from those damaged follicles. After several treatments, future growth from these damaged follicles will either stop completely or significantly slow.
Laser hair removal offers an alternative that’s both quick and painless: unlike razors or waxing sessions which are costly in both terms of both time and expense, laser removal saves both money and hassle by negating the need to purchase and use razors, or pay for monthly waxing sessions.
An accredited esthetician provides your laser hair removal treatment. Depending on the area being treated, you may feel a slight stinging sensation similar to when snapping a rubber band; most individuals can tolerate the discomfort well and typically need six or more sessions for permanent reduction in body hair growth.
Laser technicians use a hand piece that presses against your skin surface, which directs laser’s light energy directly towards hair follicles. Prior to each appointment, it’s necessary for you to shave this area first.
3. Zeltiq Laser Hair Remover
Laser hair removal can save both time and money when it comes to shaving, waxing and depilatory creams. It’s a quick, painless and non-invasive solution; using pulses of light to disable cells responsible for hair follicle growth; suitable for most skin types; can even reduce ingrown hairs after waxing or shaving!
The Alexandrite laser system is one of the fastest available, covering large treatment areas in as little as 30 minutes. Due to its longer wavelength than other hair removal systems, this one may be particularly suitable for people with darker skin tones; yet is safe for most skin types.
Laser treatments involve targeting each hair follicle individually with high-energy light pulses to destroy it from within, stopping future growth. Multiple sessions may be necessary in order to achieve desired results and clients should avoid sun exposure and self-tanner before their appointments as stubble can hinder effectiveness of treatment.
4. NuSkin Hair Remover
Laser hair removal is an excellent cosmetic solution to diminish unwanted body hair. It can be applied to many parts of the body including legs, armpits, and face; many clients combine this treatment with other skincare services in order to treat their skin with great care.
Laser hair removal works by targeting unwanted hair with light. Once light has been absorbed by its pigment, energy from the laser is converted to heat that damages tube-shaped sacs in your skin (hair follicles), which ultimately prevent or delay future hair growth – although any that does return is usually lighter and softer than before.
Hair loss often happens a few days to weeks after laser treatments due to hair follicles entering a new phase of growth, necessitating multiple sessions for permanent reduction of unwanted hair.
Prior to and following laser treatments, clients should avoid sun exposure as much as possible. They should also stop shaving, waxing and plucking their targeted area; furthermore they must not use any creams which darken skin tone like self tanners.
5. Oasis Hair Remover
Laser hair removal works by sending pulses of light energy deep into the skin where they reflect off pigment and disable unwanted hair follicles, effectively disabling them permanently. Six to eight treatments sessions may be required before seeing results compared with waxing and shaving which only remove surface hairs temporarily; laser hair removal offers permanent reduction in growth rate.
Laser treatments are generally safe for most people. Compared to electrolysis, which may be painful for some individuals, laser treatments tend to be painless and do not damage skin cells; plus they require no downtime afterward. Some clients may experience slight discomfort or tingling sensation during their laser procedure.
Before receiving laser hair removal treatments, it is essential that you prepare properly. Avoid tanning beds and self-tanner or lotions in the area being treated; sun exposure could make skin hypersensitive to laser treatment; your Oasis Med Spa professional can advise on appropriate preparation based on your individual skin type and hair color.
6. Motus AY Laser Hair Remover
Laser hair reduction is an increasingly popular way to permanently get rid of unwanted body hair. This treatment involves exposing skin to pulses of laser light that target hair follicles, effectively stopping their ability to produce new hair growth. It can be performed almost anywhere on the body and usually involves multiple sessions over time.
Motus AY laser technology provides several unique advantages over other hair removal options, such as being suitable for all skin tones and colors compared to systems designed specifically for lighter complexions or lighter-colored locks. Furthermore, the Motus AY’s cool sapphire tip helps ensure treatments are comfortable and safe.
Sona Dermatology’s state-of-the-art system also offers other aesthetic treatments, including non-ablative photorejuvenation, vascular lesions treatment and pigmented lesion removal. Ideal for anyone seeking pain-free hair removal.

7. Zeltiq Hair Remover for Legs
Leg Laser Hair Removal provides an alternative to shaving, plucking and waxing for eliminating unwanted body hair follicles in targeted areas of your legs and leaving skin soft and smooth. A series of treatment sessions reduce the number of follicles within these targeted regions resulting in smooth skin feeling after just one session!
At each laser hair removal treatment session, your provider will direct a light technology laser beam directly at the pigment in your follicles containing melanin. Melanin absorbs this heat energy, damaging the follicle and ultimately stopping its ability to produce new hair growth.
Preparing for Leg Laser Hair Removal requires planning ahead. Avoid waxing six weeks prior, as this removes pigment and makes it harder for the laser to target hair follicles. Furthermore, sun exposure and tanning beds should be avoided one week prior to your appointment.
For optimal results, your Ideal Image provider may suggest multiple treatments to permanently reduce hair growth in the targeted area. This is especially beneficial for people with darker skin who require multiple laser hair removal sessions; at your initial consultation they will discuss a suitable plan of care.
8. NuSkin Hair Remover for Face
NuSkin is an industry leader when it comes to at-home beauty device systems, offering products for skin cleansing, hair removal, and anti-ageing treatments.
AgeLOC LumiSpa is a hands-free, cordless electric cleansing device suitable for use in the shower. Equipped with multiple silicon heads designed to cleanse in different ways and an innovative pause feature that warns if too much pressure or tugging are being used on skin surface areas, this hands-free cleansing device makes grooming your face easy!
Laser hair removal works by targeting light that absorbs pigment in your hair to heat and damage its follicle, effectively stopping future hair growth. You may achieve permanent reduction after just a few treatments, although for maximum effect we advise having six to 10 sessions over time.
Laser hair removal treatments don’t hurt, but may feel similar to rubber bands snapping against the skin when each follicle is targeted for treatment. Once treatment has completed, however, you’re free to carry on with life – no more tweezing or waxing required!
