What is laser hair removal, and how does it work?

Laser hair removal is a non-invasive treatment that uses a concentrated laser beam that targets the melanin pigment in the hair. The light energy converts to heat, destroying the hair follicles beneath the skin and permanently delaying or stopping hair growth. Multiple sessions are typically needed for optimal results. For clients, both the Splendor X and Soprano Ice lasers are available, with the Splendor X offering the benefits of faster, more precise results and comfort across all skin tones.

What to expect during laser hair removal?

Your experience begins with a consultation to determine your hair type, skin tone, and desired areas for treatment. During your session, a laser device will be applied to the target area. You might feel mild discomfort, similar to a rubber band snap. Sessions vary from a few minutes to an hour, depending on the treatment area. Post-session, slight redness or swelling may occur but usually fades within hours. For those interested, we also offer Innogene hair restoration and LED light therapy, which can support skin healing and hair regrowth in targeted areas.

Treatable Zones, Tailored to You

What areas of the body can laser hair removal treat?

Both men and women benefit from permanent hair reduction in high-maintenance or irritation-prone areas. Laser hair removal is ideal for almost any part of the body, including:

  • Face (upper lip, chin, sideburns)
  • Underarms
  • Arms and forearms
  • Chest and back
  • Bikini line and Brazilian area
  • Legs and thighs
  • Neck and shoulders

No Stubble. No Struggle. Just Smooth.

What are the benefits of laser hair removal?

Laser hair removal provides long-lasting hair reduction, saving time compared to waxing or shaving. The Splendor X laser allows for precise targeting of dark, coarse hairs while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged, making it an ideal choice for a variety of skin tones.

We offer that option as well for clients familiar with Soprano Ice, allowing flexibility based on your comfort. Additional benefits include long-term cost-effectiveness and the convenience of treating multiple areas of the body. For clients looking to enhance skin health or support hair regrowth, our Innogene hair restoration and LED light therapy options offer further treatment customization.

Let’s Find Out if Laser’s a Fit

Is laser hair removal right for me?

Most people are ideal candidates for laser hair removal, including those with:

  • Individuals with dark hair seeking permanent hair removal
  • Those tired of regular hair removal methods
  • People looking for a hygienic and convenient hair removal solution

However, patients with very light blonde, red, or grey hair may not respond as well, as the laser targets pigment. A consultation at Avané Clinic will determine your eligibility and create the ideal treatment plan.

Low Downtime. High Satisfaction.

Laser Hair Removal Recovery

There’s no downtime after laser hair removal. You may experience:

  • Slight redness or sensitivity for a few hours
  • A sunburn-like feeling in the treated area
  • Light shedding of hair in 7–14 days

Post-care includes:

  • Avoiding direct sun exposure for 1–2 weeks
  • Using SPF on exposed areas
  • No waxing or plucking (shaving is allowed between sessions)

Most clients return to work, gym, or social activities the same day.

Laser Hair Removal Results

Results are gradual and cumulative. You’ll begin to notice reduced regrowth after the first or second session, with the best results seen after a full course of 6–8 treatments, spaced 4–6 weeks apart. After completing your sessions, most patients enjoy up to 90% permanent hair reduction in the treated areas, with occasional maintenance sessions recommended yearly or biannually.
