Question 1

Does laser hair removal hurt?

Accepted Answer

Laser hair removal is significantly less painful than waxing — most clients describe it as a brief warm snap. Our Candela GentleMax Pro has a built-in cooling system that sprays a burst of cold air before each pulse, keeping your skin comfortable. Each session hurts less than the last because there's less hair to treat. By session 3-4, most people barely notice it.

Question 2

How fast will I see results from laser hair removal?

Accepted Answer

You'll see treated hairs start falling out within 1-2 weeks of your first session. By session 3-4, most clients see a dramatic reduction. Clinical studies confirm significant, lasting hair reduction after a full treatment series. Many clients are bikini-ready after just 4 sessions.

Question 3

How long does a laser hair removal session take?

Accepted Answer

Most laser hair removal sessions take 10-20 minutes depending on the area. Upper lip takes 10 minutes, underarms 15 minutes, bikini 20 minutes. Full legs take about 45-60 minutes. You can do this on your lunch break and go right back to work.

Question 4

What happens at my first laser hair removal visit?

Accepted Answer

Your first visit includes a patch test and a full treatment — you're in and out in about 30-45 minutes. You'll meet your provider, get an honest assessment of your skin and hair type, and leave with smooth skin plus a personalized treatment plan.

Question 5

Is laser hair removal permanent?

Accepted Answer

Yes, laser hair removal is permanent. Clinical studies confirm that once the hair follicle is disrupted, it can't produce new hair. An occasional touch-up (once or twice a year) handles any new growth from hormonal changes, but the treated hairs are gone for good.

Question 6

Can laser hair removal treat ingrown hairs?

Accepted Answer

Laser hair removal is one of the most effective treatments for ingrown hairs. By permanently eliminating the hair at the root, you eliminate the conditions that cause ingrowns. This is the #1 reason bikini and underarm clients come in — they're tired of the bumps and irritation from shaving and waxing.

Question 7

Can I shave between laser hair removal sessions?

Accepted Answer

Yes — shaving between laser sessions is recommended. Shave 24-48 hours before each appointment. Just avoid waxing and plucking, as those remove the hair root the laser needs to target. Between sessions, you'll notice you need to shave less and less until you don't need to at all.

Question 8

How much money does laser hair removal save compared to shaving?

Accepted Answer

Laser hair removal saves over $10,000 compared to a lifetime of shaving and over $23,000 compared to regular waxing. The results are permanent and you get back hundreds of hours you'd spend shaving every year.

Question 9

What is the aftercare for laser hair removal?

Accepted Answer

Aftercare is minimal — just avoid sun and hot baths for 24-48 hours and apply SPF daily. Your skin might look slightly pink for a few hours. Apply aloe vera if needed. No bandages, no downtime — you can go right back to your day.

Question 10

Why choose laser hair removal over shaving or waxing?

Accepted Answer

Laser hair removal provides permanent results after just a few quick sessions, while shaving takes 182+ hours per year and waxing is painful and temporary. You save over $10,000 compared to a lifetime of shaving, eliminate ingrown hairs and razor burn forever, and never have to worry about stubble again.

Question 11

What is the difference between electrolysis and laser hair removal?

Accepted Answer

Electrolysis treats one hair at a time with a tiny electric current, while laser hair removal treats hundreds of hairs per pulse. Laser is significantly faster — underarms take 15 minutes vs. hours with electrolysis. Both provide permanent results, but laser covers larger areas in far less time with less discomfort. Our Candela GentleMax Pro works on all skin tones, which was once an advantage only electrolysis had.
