LASER HAIR REMOVAL FAQ

The cost of laser hair removal depends on the area we address and the number of sessions you need to get a smooth result. When you consider the cost benefits of laser hair removal, think about the energy and time you spend on shaving, waxing, or other temporary options. In comparison, laser hair removal is generally cheaper and can save you energy and time in the long run. Our team can create a plan that includes the total number of sessions you need and pricing options.

Laser hair removal is an effective treatment that provides lasting improvements. While you can enjoy the results of your treatment for a long time, it's considered semi-permanent because some follicles may not get eliminated by the laser. Often, patients find that some of their hair follicles remain dormant after completing their treatment plan. However, even if a few hairs pop up, they are very easy to deal with. More laser hair removal sessions may be scheduled to take care of any stragglers or new growth as well.

Your hair growth occurs in cycles. When some hair follicles are in a live growing phase, others are resting. Since each follicle is at various stages, patients generally need several treatment sessions to target each hair during the growing phase. Scheduling your sessions over a few weeks will help you get effective results and smoother skin.

The process of laser hair removal can cause mild discomfort, but it is not considered too painful. Most patients feel a small sting when the Harmony XL PRO handpiece targets and removes each hair follicle. To reduce discomfort, we can apply a local anesthetic to the surface of the skin prior to the treatment session. For patients who have gotten waxed, they report laser hair removal feels much less uncomfortable compared to getting waxed.
