Introduction to Laser Hair Removal
What is Laser Hair Removal?
No more razors, waxing, or worries
Laser hair removal uses focused light energy to target and destroy hair follicles, reducing hair growth over time.
It’s a non-invasive and mostly pain-free procedure, suitable for various skin types and body areas.
Unlike waxing or shaving, laser hair removal offers smooth, hair-free skin for the long term with minimal maintenance.
Laser hair removal is a safe and effective method to reduce unwanted hair permanently. Different laser technologies are used depending on skin tone, hair type, and the area being treated. Here’s a breakdown of the most commonly used laser types:
The Science Behind It
Laser Hair Removal
The best candidates have light skin with dark hair because the laser targets pigment in the hair follicle. With the technology ever improving, a candidate even with dark skin is also still able to safely get treatment. Hormones, hair growth, or long-term hair reduction candidates are great candidates. Pregnant women and patients with certain skin conditions should talk to their doctors about whether they should get a laser hair removal treatment.
Laser hair removal provides long-term hair reduction for smoother skin. It saves time and money compared to regular waxing or shaving. It prevents ingrown hairs and reduces skin irritations. Typically, as hair grows back, it is finer and grows slower, and many clients have near-permanent results.
Generally, clients will need between 6 and 8 sessions with 4–6 weeks between the sessions. The characteristic of hair growth being cyclical means that you will need more than one session to treat every follicle. Maintenance sessions may be required once or twice a year. The number of sessions will vary according to the treatment area and type of hair.
Indeed, try to avoid waxing, plucking, or bleaching hair for at least 4 weeks before your treatment. You should shave the area 24 hours before your session. Avoid sun or tanning beds to lessen the risk of side effects. Disclose to your doctor any medications you are taking or any skin conditions you have.
Laser hair removal achieves long-term hair reduction but is not always 100% permanent. Most patients have a significant reduction in hair growth and will see the majority of their regrowth finer and lighter. Results can last for years, especially with maintenance sessions once or twice a year. Results can also be affected by hormonal changes.
Expect mild and temporary side effects, such as redness, slight swelling, and a sunburn-like feeling straight after your session. Reaction is generally mild in nature and should resolve within a matter of a few hours. Blisters and pigmentation can happen when not performed correctly or if neglecting aftercare but are rare.
Laser hair removal is generally safe for almost anywhere on the body, including the face, underarms, arms, legs, bikini area, chest, back, and even the toes. Areas that are sensitive are treated with appropriate laser settings. Both males and females have the option of full-body treatments or specific treatments where you choose the area to treat.
Definitely! Laser hair removal is a common treatment for men on the back, chest, shoulders, neck, beard, and ears. It is a successful way to permanently reduce thick and/or coarse hair and help maintain a clean, manicured appearance. The sessions will also accommodate male skin and hair types.
Avoid sun exposure, hot showers, saunas, and workouts for 24–48 hours post-treatment. Don’t wax or pluck hair between sessions—only shaving is allowed. Always apply sunscreen if the treated area is exposed to sunlight. Follow your technician’s aftercare advice for the best results.

Yes, laser hair removal is a medically approved and safe procedure when performed by trained professionals. It uses concentrated light to target and destroy hair follicles without harming the surrounding skin. At My Aesthetic+, we use FDA-approved laser technology and follow strict safety protocols tailored to your skin type to ensure a comfortable and risk-free experience.
While pain tolerance varies from person to person, most people describe the sensation as a quick snap—similar to a rubber band lightly hitting the skin. Modern machines are designed with built-in cooling systems to soothe the skin instantly, making the process much more comfortable. For sensitive areas or first-timers, a numbing cream may also be applied to minimise discomfort.
Hair grows in different cycles, and lasers are most effective on active-growing follicles. That’s why most clients need around 6 to 8 sessions, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. The number of sessions may vary based on factors like your hair type, skin tone, and the body area being treated. After completing the initial sessions, occasional maintenance treatments may be recommended to maintain results.
Yes, thanks to advancements in laser technology, individuals of all skin types—including darker skin tones—can now safely undergo laser hair removal. Our team uses advanced triple-wavelength and diode laser systems that can be calibrated to suit your specific skin and hair type. A consultation will help us determine the safest and most effective settings for you.
Laser hair removal offers long-term hair reduction rather than complete, permanent removal. Most clients experience up to 80–90% reduction in hair growth after completing their sessions. Any regrowth is usually finer, lighter, and much less noticeable. With occasional maintenance sessions, results can last for years—eliminating the need for shaving or waxing.
