What is Laser Therapy
LASER Hair Removal Therapy is performed with devices that produce transient, intense but gentle burst of light. This fragments and removes the hair with selective destruction causing minimum harm to the surrounding tissue. To protect eyes from the intense light, clients will have their eyes covered with an opaque material, or wear laser protective glasses. For best results multiple treatments are necessary.
Following treatment, the area may appear red with some form of discoloration (erythema) that may last up to 2-3 days. The treated area may feel like sunburn after treatment, and some darkening or peeling may be normal. Topical cream can be used on the area to alleviate any discomfort.

We have many different plans to chose from. Whatever your budget we have a plan for you.
PRE-TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS:
- Avoid the sun 1 to 2 weeks before and after treatment. Irritated skin may be more susceptible to injury.
- Please let us know of any topical medications or skin care products that you use. We may ask you to stop these 3 to 5 days prior to treatment.
- You MUST avoid bleaching, plucking or waxing hair for 4 to 6 weeks prior to treatment. The melanin-containging hair must be present in the follicles. This is the “target” for the laser light.
- If you have a history of peri-oral or genital herpes simplex, please let us know. We may recommend prophylactic antiviral therapy.
- RECENTLY TANNED SKIN CANNOT BE TREATED! If treated within one week for active (natural sunlight or tanning booth) tanning, you may develop hypopigmentation (white spots) after treatment. This may not clear for two to three months or longer.
- Please shave the area that is to be lasered as close to the time of your appointment as possible.
POST-TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS:
- Immediately after treatment there may be redness and swelling of each hair follicle in the treatment site. Redness may last 2 to 3 days.
- A topical soothing skin care product, such as Aloe Vera gel may be applied.
- Makeup may be used within 24 hours after the treatment if the skin is not irritated.
- Avoid sun exposure to reduce the chance of hyper-pigmentation (darker pigmentation). Always use a sunblock (SPF 30+) throughout the course of treatment.
- Avoid picking or scratching the treated skin. Do not use any other hair removal treatment products or similar treatment (waxing, electrolysis, or tweezing). This will disturb the hair follicle in the treatment area for 4 to 6 weeks after the laser treatment is performed. Shaving is the preferred method.
- Anywhere from 10 to 21 days after the treatment, shedding of the treated hair may occur and this appears as new hair growth.
- After the underarms are treated, you may wish to use a powder instead of a deodorant for 24 hours.
- There are no restrictions on bathing except to treat the skin gently.
- Hair growth occurs at different rates on different areas of the body. You may make an appointment for a follow up treatment in 4 to 6 weeks for face, underarms, torso, and bikini line. 2 to 3 months for the lower body.
