How Effective Is Laser Hair Removal?
This treatment can stop hair removal entirely with the proper number of treatment sessions. However, the number of treatment sessions needed for unwanted hair to stop coming back is going to be different for each person. The number of sessions needed will depend on hair thickness and hair pigment and typically, once our experts evaluate the unwanted hair, they can give you a better idea of how many sessions you will need.
So, laser hair removal is highly effective when the right amount of treatments are used. Most people find that 6 to 10 treatments are enough to stop the hair from returning for good.

There are quite a few areas where unwanted hair grows and this treatment can help! If you do have an area that’s not mentioned, do not hesitate to bring that up with our professionals so they can let you know if this treatment can help in those areas also.

This treatment can take care of that unwanted hair once and for all so you won’t have to worry about shaving or making matters worse.

At-home hair removal on the back can be a real pain and sometimes impossible for many people. If you have unwanted hair on the back and are tired of waxing appointments to combat it, this treatment can help! It will get rid of unwanted hair on any part of the back in no time.

How Does Laser Hair Removal Work
This treatment works by using a laser that heats up the hair follicle of the unwanted hair. Since the laser is highly concentrated, it does this without harming or even impacting the surrounding skin. Once the hair follicle is heated enough, it destroys the pigment and therefore kills the hair at the source. Often, the hair follicle needs to be heated in various stages of regrowth so that the hair will cease to return for good!
