Wax on, wax off! No matter how many waxing appointments you make, you can always count on unwanted hair to return. The stubble usually starts creeping back after a few weeks, and before you know it, you’re back in the salon and throwing away money on temporary results.
But here’s a hair removal solution that’s not a ripoff: laser hair removal. It’s the high-tech solution to unwanted hair—no sticky mess, ingrown hairs, or yanking required. To compare costs, results, pain, and other aspects of hair removal, St. Louis experts at Milan Laser Hair Removal, the nation’s largest laser hair removal provider, shared insights on going hair-free for good.

Treatments
We’ve all seen the cringy scenes in movies with waxing, and, yes, the pain is very real. Hot wax sticks to unwanted hair (often in sensitive areas) and rips the hair away from the skin. While this method rids the hair, it’s not for the faint of heart, and the results are fleeting. The hair is removed, but the follicle is still active, which means hair grows back month after month.
During laser hair removal treatments, concentrated laser light targets melanin in the hair follicle and disrupts the growth cycle permanently. Many say that it feels like a rubber band snapping against the skin—in the laser hair removal industry, that's called “spicy.”
The Candela GentleMaxPro used at Milan Laser Hair Removal works with cooling technologies to reduce potential discomfort, providing clients with comfortable laser hair removal treatments.
Results
Depending on the area and growth, most people make waxing appointments every three to four weeks. The hair growth never slows down and keeps on growing. You may enjoy smooth, hair-free skin—but not for long.
Many Milan Laser clients see noticeable results after their first treatment. After two sessions, you can expect dense, thick hair to be more fine and less visible. Because hair is in different growth cycles, it takes multiple treatments to see the desired results. The average Milan Laser client is more than 95 percent hair-free in treated areas within seven to 10 treatments. Milan Laser offers the industry’s first and only Unlimited Package™, providing clients with as many treatments as they need at any location for life.

Cost
Do you value time and money? Yes! If you choose to wax, then you’re throwing both away. Here’s the truth: Waxing is more expensive than laser hair removal. For Brazilian waxing appointments at salons, you could spend around $27,000 over a lifetime. But what did that money do?
The results of each laser hair removal treatment are permanent. And because you’ll be hair-free after multiple treatments, you’ll no longer need to pay for salon appointments or carve out time for them. Milan Laser also offers affordable payment plans to fit anyone’s monthly budget, so you’ll never break the bank on smooth skin.
Accessibility
Waxing salons are everywhere, and they all vary in terms of skill and efficacy. But one thing is certain with places like Milan Laser: The treatments are consistent. Milan Laser has five locations in the St. Louis area, all with the same safety protocols and lifetime guarantees.
Laser hair removal is safe and effective for all skin tones. Milan Laser uses the Candela GentleMax Pro, which contains two separate laser technologies: Nd: Yag and Alexandrite. The Alexandrite is used for lighter skin tones, while the Nd: Yag is best for deeper skin tones.

Skincare
There’s nothing quite like the smooth feeling from a fresh wax—even if it is short-lived. But waxing can wreak havoc on your skin. It can cause bruising, bleeding, clogged pores, and redness. Some people are even allergic to certain wax brands. Waxing is also the culprit for one of the most pesky skincare woes: ingrown hairs, which appear when a strand of hair curls into the skin and grows in the wrong direction after waxing.
If you already deal with ingrown hairs, then laser hair removal can help. Laser hair removal goes to the source and destroys the hair follicle at the root, so there's no more playing hide-and-seek with rebellious ingrown hairs.
