Questions to Ask Before Your Laser Hair Removal Treatment

Can’t stand shaving your legs every day? We don't blame you! Whether you have a stubborn patch of hair you’d rather do without or you’re tired of spending money replacing your dull razor blade, permanent laser hair removal treatment might be a great option for you!

If you have an appointment lined up or you're deciding whether or not you should go for it, you might have a few questions on your mind about the process. Don’t fret - we’ve got your answers below!


How does it work?
Most permanent laser hair removal treatments involve the use of an intense pulsed light (IPL) to get rid of the cells responsible for growing those unwanted, new hairs. This IPL spreads light over a wide area of the skin and allows faster coverage of the skin and quicker treatments as a result! However, ask your trained technician how they approach the treatment.

How do I prep?

Knowing the proper steps to prep your skin is important for best results. For example, your technician might tell you to have the hair shaved on the desired area of removal, or to make sure your skin is also clean for optimal results. If you have hard-to-reach areas, don’t worry - a technician can always help you. 

How many treatments do I need?
Each individual’s needs are unique, which means the number of treatments you will need can vary. However, the average person will need about 4 to 6 treatments. With that being said, ask when it’s a good time to start treatment and when you should expect to complete the process.

Is there any downtime required?
Typically, there is no recovery time needed after permanent laser hair removal. However, it’s crucial to understand your unique situation and if there are steps you need to take or tasks you should avoid post-treatment.
