Frequently Asked Questions about Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal can provide long-lasting results, but it is not technically considered a permanent solution. After completing a full series of treatments, most patients experience significant reduction in hair growth, but some regrowth may occur over time. It is normal to have a touch-up treatment every one to two years.

The exact length of time the results last varies depending on the individual and the area being treated. Hair follicles treated during the full series typically do not regrow. However, new hair follicles or inactive hair follicles can become active over time and will require touch-up treatments. Factors such as hormone changes, pregnancy, and some medications can stimulate new hair growth.

The level of discomfort experienced during laser hair removal varies depending on the individual’s pain tolerance and the area being treated. Our Soprano hair removal laser incorporates a self-cooling tip to make the treatments as comfortable as possible. Most patients experience little to no discomfort.

If you stop laser hair removal before completing the recommended series your hair will grow back. We typically recommend 6 treatments done at 4 to 6 week intervals.

Some regrowth may occur after laser hair removal due to hormonal changes or hair follicles that were not fully treated during the initial sessions. Maintenance treatments may be required to maintain results.

It is recommended that you continue to shave the treated area between laser hair removal sessions. This ensures that the laser can effectively target the hair follicle without interference from surface hair.

Stubble after laser hair removal may occur if the hair was not fully treated during the initial session. It may also occur if the hair was not shaved prior to the session.

After the first laser hair removal session, you may experience mild redness or swelling in the treated area. Some patients also experience a mild sunburn-like sensation that typically subsides within a few hours.

If you do not shave the area being treated prior to laser hair removal, the laser may not be able to effectively target the hair follicle. This can result in less effective results or additional treatment sessions.

Some patients may see a reduction in hair growth after the first laser hair removal session. However, it typically takes multiple sessions to achieve significant and long-lasting results.

Our experienced and certified technicians are highly trained in providing comfortable and discreet laser hair removal services, including Brazilian treatments. We strive to create a comfortable and welcoming environment for all of our clients.

How does laser hair removal work?

Our laser hair removal technology emits a concentrated beam of light that is absorbed by the melanin (pigment) in your hair follicles. This damages the hair follicles and inhibits future hair growth. The surrounding skin remains unharmed as the laser only targets the hair follicles.

 

What areas can we treat?

Our laser hair removal service can be used on virtually any part of your body including your face, legs, arms, underarms, bikini area, chest, and back.

 

Is laser hair removal safe?

Yes, our laser hair removal service is safe and FDA-approved. Our experienced technicians use the appropriate settings and protocols to ensure a safe and effective treatment for all skin types.

 

What should you expect during the treatment?

Prior to the treatment, our technician will evaluate your skin and hair type to determine the appropriate laser setting. You may experience a mild discomfort during the treatment, but our technicians use cooling methods to minimize any discomfort. The length of the treatment depends on the size of the area being treated but typically ranges from a few minutes to an hour.

 

How many treatments are necessary?

The number of treatments required depends on your hair and skin type, as well as the area being treated. On average, most patients require 6-8 treatments spaced several weeks apart for optimal results. Our technician will create a personalized treatment plan for you during your consultation.

 

What are the benefits of laser hair removal?

  • Long-lasting results: Unlike shaving, waxing, or plucking, laser hair removal provides long-lasting results.
  • Time-saving: No more daily shaving or monthly waxing appointments!
  • Cost-effective: Over time, laser hair removal is a cost-effective option compared to the ongoing expenses of other hair removal methods.
  • Improved skin appearance: Laser hair removal can improve the appearance of your skin by reducing ingrown hairs and hyperpigmentation.

 

How painful is laser hair removal?

  • Pain-Free, Hair-Free™ combines cutting-edge Soprano ICE medical laser technology with the comfort and convenience of a trip to BPWC. The amazing technology has been described as one of the most comfortable hair removal options you can get.
  • Pain-Free, Hair-Free™ debunks the the idea that to get rid of hair it must hurt. The treatment gently heats the targeted area. Pulses of energy gradually heat the follicles in the sub dermal layer of the skin. Plus, an additional cooling mechanism ensures that the surface of your skin remains cool throughout your treatment.
  • Most patients find the laser hair removal process comfortable. While we understand that tolerance to pain is subjective, many patients compare it a soothing hot stone massage. While most conventional laser hair removal technologies utilize high levels of heat to destroy hair follicles and ensure permanent reduction, our Pain-Free, Hair-Free™ system delivers low heat levels at a fast delivery. By using low heat, pain and side effects are decreased.
