LASER HAIR REMOVAL FAQ

What is laser hair removal?

Laser hair removal is a non-invasive treatment that uses concentrated light energy to target hair follicles. The pigment in the hair absorbs the light, which damages the follicle and significantly reduces future hair growth over time.


How does laser hair removal work?

The laser emits a specific wavelength of light that is absorbed by melanin in the hair shaft. This energy heats and disables the follicle while leaving the surrounding skin unharmed. Treatments are most effective during the active growth phase of the hair cycle.


Is laser hair removal permanent?

Laser hair removal results in long-term hair reduction, not guaranteed permanent removal. Most clients experience a dramatic decrease in hair growth, with remaining hair becoming finer, lighter, and slower to grow. Occasional maintenance sessions may be needed.


How many treatments will I need?

Most clients require 6–8 treatments, spaced 4–8 weeks apart depending on the area treated. Hair grows in cycles, and multiple sessions are necessary to target follicles during their active growth phase.


Is laser hair removal painful?

Discomfort is minimal and often described as a quick snapping or warming sensation. Advanced laser technology and built-in cooling systems help keep treatments comfortable. Most clients tolerate the procedure very well.


Is laser hair removal safe?

Yes, laser hair removal is FDA-cleared and considered safe when performed by trained professionals. Side effects are usually mild and temporary, such as slight redness or warmth, which typically resolves within a few hours.


What areas can be treated?

Laser hair removal can be performed on most areas of the body, including:

  • Face and neck

  • Underarms

  • Arms and legs

  • Bikini and Brazilian

  • Chest and back

  • Abdomen


Does laser hair removal work on all skin types?

Modern laser systems are designed to safely treat a wide range of skin tones. During your consultation, your provider will determine the best settings for your skin and hair type to ensure safe and effective results.


How should I prepare for my appointment?

For best results:

  • Shave the treatment area 24–48 hours before your session

  • Avoid waxing, tweezing, or threading for at least 4 weeks prior

  • Avoid sun exposure and self-tanners before and after treatment

  • Arrive with clean skin, free of lotions or makeup


What should I expect after treatment?

You may notice mild redness or sensitivity similar to a sunburn, which usually resolves quickly. Hair will begin to shed over the following 1–3 weeks. Sun protection is essential after treatment.


Can laser hair removal be done year-round?

Yes, laser hair removal can be done year-round; however, avoiding sun exposure before and after treatments is important. Fall and winter are popular times to start treatments since there is typically less sun exposure.


Who is not a good candidate for laser hair removal?

Laser hair removal may not be recommended if you are:

  • Pregnant

  • Taking certain photosensitizing medications

  • Experiencing active skin infections or open wounds in the treatment area

  • Blond, strawberry red or grey hair

A consultation is required to ensure treatment is appropriate for you.


How long does each treatment take?

Treatment time varies by area:

  • Small areas (upper lip, underarms): 5–15 minutes

  • Medium areas (bikini, face): 15–30 minutes

  • Large areas (legs, back): 45–90 minutes


When will I see results?

You may notice reduced hair growth after the first session, but optimal results appear after completing a full series of treatments. Hair becomes finer, lighter, and less dense with each session.


Why choose professional laser hair removal over at-home devices?

Professional treatments use medical-grade lasers that deliver deeper, more consistent energy than at-home devices. This results in safer treatments, faster results, and significantly better long-term hair reduction.

 

What is the best laser wavelength for my skin tone?

Laser hair removal effectiveness and safety depend heavily on choosing the correct wavelength for your skin tone and hair type. Different wavelengths penetrate the skin at different depths and interact with melanin differently.

Common laser wavelengths used for hair removal:

  • 755 nm (Alexandrite)

  • 810 nm (Diode)

  • 1064 nm (Nd:YAG)


Why is 755 nm ideal for lighter skin tones?

755 nm (Alexandrite) is considered the gold standard for fair to light-medium skin tones (Fitzpatrick I–III).

Why it works best:

  • Strong absorption by melanin in the hair follicle

  • Highly effective on dark, coarse hair

  • Faster treatments due to larger spot sizes

  • Excellent long-term hair reduction results

Best for:

  • Very fair to olive skin tones

  • Clients with high contrast between hair and skin

  • Areas like legs, arms, underarms, and bikini


Why is 1064 nm best for darker skin tones?

1064 nm (Nd:YAG) is the safest and most effective wavelength for medium to deep skin tones (Fitzpatrick IV–VI).

Why it works best:

  • Penetrates deeper into the skin

  • Bypasses surface melanin, reducing risk of burns or pigmentation changes

  • Targets the hair follicle while protecting the epidermis

  • Safest option for tanned or naturally darker skin

Best for:

  • Medium to dark skin tones

  • Clients prone to hyperpigmentation

  • Year-round treatments when sun exposure is unavoidable


Why not use the same wavelength for everyone?

Using the wrong wavelength can:

  • Reduce treatment effectiveness

  • Increase discomfort

  • Raise the risk of burns or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation

That’s why customized wavelength selection is critical for safe, effective laser hair removal.


What about diode lasers (810 nm)?

810 nm diode lasers offer a balance between penetration depth and melanin absorption.

Pros:

  • Suitable for a broad range of skin tones

  • Good for coarse hair

  • Often used in combination systems

Limitations:

  • Not as aggressive as 755 nm for light skin

  • Not as safe as 1064 nm for very dark skin


Why clinics using both 755 nm and 1064 nm get better results

Practices that offer both 755 nm and 1064 nm wavelengths can truly customize treatments based on:

  • Skin tone

  • Hair thickness

  • Treatment area

  • Seasonal sun exposure

This approach allows:

  • Faster results

  • Safer treatments

  • Better long-term hair reduction

  • Improved comfort


How do I know which wavelength is right for me?

During your consultation, your provider will assess:

  • Skin tone (Fitzpatrick scale)

  • Hair color and thickness

  • Medical history

  • Sun exposure habits

From there, the optimal wavelength and settings are selected specifically for you.

    Charlotte's Best Aesthetician

    Nina is the best aesthetician in Charlotte! I have known her for several years and have not only seen the work she has done on her clients but experienced results myself. Her expertise with facials and skin care is unsurpassed. Her laser knowledge is my favorite, and I always have great results. Her passion and attention to detail are evident, and she always takes time to listen to concerns. I love how Nina has helped me meet my skincare goals over the years, and compliments from others prove that she is the best!

    I've always assumed I'd have to endure acne issues for the rest of my life. I'm in my early twenties and have had terrible acne for as long as I can remember. I've gone to every dermatologist in Charlotte, and after just one treatment with Nina, I began to see results. My skin has been a never-ending battle up until I started going here. It's affordable (I'm job hunting and can still manage coming here once a month), and it works like magic. I've had tiny acne bumps and constant painful breakouts all over my face for as long as I can remember, and not one doctor has been able to alleviate them or make them go away altogether. Nina can take each patient and customize their treatments, so there's a guarantee there are results. I wear my hair back and haven't touched my makeup drawer since my first treatment.

    I’ve been Nina’s client for several years and trust her with my skin completely. Over the years, I have done hydro facials, dermaplaning, laser hair removal, Virtue RF microneedling and face massages with Nina. The results are excellent. My favorite treatment is Virtue. PPS offers great specials almost every month, which makes treatments and medical grade products more affordable. I highly recommend Nina as an experienced esthetician.
