How Laser Hair Removal Delivers Effective & Long-Lasting Results
Laser hair removal works by using a laser to emit light that’s absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in your facial and body hair. The light energy converts into heat and damages the hair follicles. This damage can delay or reduce future hair growth, providing long-lasting results.
Using laser treatment to remove hair is a cost-efficient, worthwhile investment. This time-saving solution gives our patients more time to do what they love, and less time shaving, waxing, or plucking. It also saves our patients money in the long run by making shaving cream, razers, and waxing appointments unnecessary.

Does Laser Hair Removal Hurt?
The treatment may be uncomfortable for some, but any discomfort is usually tolerable. It can feel like a rubber band snapping against your skin, but this feeling varies from person to person. Some factors can affect your pain tolerance, such as skin thickness in the area. Areas with thinner skin, like the underarms, upper lip, and temples can be more delicate. Menstrual cycles also impact how laser skin removal feels, since your skin may also be more sensitive during your period phase, and less sensitive during your luteal phase.
Preparing for Your Laser Hair Removal Treatment
For best results, avoid tanning or waxing the treated area prior to your appointment. Additionally, avoid taking blood thinners, NSAIDs, pain relievers, and retinoid medications in the week leading up to your treatment. These medications can increase your skin’s sensitivity and cause your hair removal process to be painful and irritating.
Make sure to shave the area being treated. This will allow for maximum energy delivery of the laser device to your hair follicles and ensure more effective results. Additionally, you should avoid tweezing or waxing the treatment area before your appointment to avoid disrupting the hair follicles. Refrain from applying topicals such as lotions, moisturizers, oils, deodorants, or sunscreen to the treatment area on the day of your laser hair removal as these can impact the effectiveness of your treatment.
Comfort-Enhancing Tips for Your Laser Hair Removal Treatment
Laser hair removal is generally considered painless and manageable; however, some patients may be more sensitive to this treatment. Here are some tips to reduce pain during laser hair removal:
- Apply a numbing cream
- Avoid caffeine and alcohol
- Schedule your appointments around your menstrual cycle
- Use a cooling device such as a handheld fan
- Take a pain reliever if your practitioner approves
- Take breaks as needed
You should avoid direct heat and sweat, such as steam rooms, saunas, hot tubs, swimming, and exercising for at least 48 hours after your treatment. In addition, you should avoid topical products that can irritate your skin such as scrubs, retinols, medicated washes, and peels for at least 2 days following your laser hair removal.
Laser Hair Removal Aftercare
There are several tips you can follow to properly care for your skin after laser hair removal. If you have any redness or irritation, you can apply an ice pack to the treated area and reduce discomfort. You can also apply aloe vera gel to soothe irritated skin. It is best to wear loose fitting clothing for up to 48 hours post-treatment to avoid any friction to the treated area.
If you had laser hair removal on your face, arms, or legs, you should apply sunscreen (at least SPF 50) with zinc for at least 2 weeks following your treatment. Poor aftercare, such as not thoroughly cleaning or moisturizing the treated area, can also make your skin more prone to irritation and bacterial infections.
How Many Laser Hair Removal Sessions Will I Need?
Most people need about 6-8 sessions to achieve permanent hair reduction. The number of sessions can fluctuate depending on skin tone, hair color, and the size of the area(s) you’re treating. Because hair growth is cyclical, treatments must be spaced at 4-6 week apart. This ensures follicles have enough time to go through their natural growth cycle and are targeted during their growth phase.
Hair regrowth is to be expected during your hair removal treatment series. With each treatment session, you will notice your hair become thinner and lighter until there is little, to no hair at all.

Laser Hair Removal FAQs
Is Laser Hair Removal Safe for Tattoos?
Laser hair removal is generally safe in the vicinity of a tattoo. However, it is not recommended to perform laser hair removal directly over them as they can interfere with the process. Lasering over a tattoo can result in burns, blisters, and even scarring. During your treatment, your tattoos will be covered.
Can I Get Laser Hair Removal If I Have Keratosis Pilaris?
Yes, laser hair removal is both safe and effective for keratosis pilaris. It can improve the appearance of small, hard bumps on the skin by destroying the hair follicles responsible for inflammation and irritation. By removing the hair, you can reduce inflammation and promote smoother, healthier-looking skin.
How Much Does Laser Hair Removal Cost?
Prices will vary depending on the size and number of treatment areas, as well as the number of treatments you will need. Our laser specialists at Dōcerē Medspa will discuss pricing and treatment plans with you during your complimentary consultation.
Is It Normal to Breakout After Laser Hair Removal?
Yes, acne and breakouts are a normal side effect of laser hair removal. The laser’s heat opens up your pores and can cause temporary irritation and inflammation. Additionally, it may disrupt your skin’s bacteria balance and create an increase in acne-causing bacteria. This can lead to the appearance of pimples or red bumps, which will go away on their own within a few days.
