Laser hair removal is a procedure that uses a laser – an intense, pulsating beam of light – to remove unwanted hair. During laser hair removal, a laser beam passes through the skin to an individual hair follicle. The intense heat of the laser damages the hair follicle, which inhibits future growth.

Results differ for each individual, most people need at least 8-12 treatments, additional sessions may be required depending on the individual and body area being treated. The sessions are spaced 4-6 weeks apart depending on the area and individual.

Results and amount of sessions depend on: The contrast of your skin and hair color, ethnic background and family history, hormonal level, consistency with appointments.
