Laser Hair Removal in TX: Top FAQ’s
Believe it or not, summer is just a few months away. Warmer temperatures mean fewer clothes and, essentially, shaving more often. If you’re dreaming of investing in a life that’s worry-free about the last time you waxed, plucked, or tweezed, then Laser Hair Removal is your solution. And, if your goal is to remove hair by summer, YOU NEED TO START NOW.
This blog is going to answer all of your laser hair removal FAQs like, “How long does it take to see laser hair removal results?” and so much more. Let’s get to it.
What kind of laser does Lush RX use to remove hair?
There are many lasers on the market that remove hair, but they are not all created equal. At Lush RX Med Spa, we proudly offer the Soprano Ice—a newer and more advanced laser than most med spas are using.
The Soprano Ice is unique because it uses a “Cool Laser” unlike most devices that use heat. Earlier heat-powered lasers only worked effectively on lighter skin tones and could be extremely painful (especially in intimate areas).
Our Soprano Ice works on ALL skin types and tones and is virtually painless! In fact, our laser even features ultrasonic benefits that we leverage in other treatments, like Cool Laser Therapy.
What areas of the body can I get lasered?
The most popular regions that clients want laser hair removal performed include the bikini/brazilian area, armpits, legs, back, neck, abdomen, and chest. The beauty of laser hair removal is that it is non-invasive, making it safe to administer to most areas of the body. In short, if you have a region where you dislike hair growth, we can probably fix it.
How long does it take to see laser hair removal results?
The average patient needs 3+ laser sessions to start seeing noticeable results - which means up to 4 months! So, if you want to be hairless by summertime, the time to start is now!
Because our hair follicles are all in different growth phases at any given time, it takes multiple sessions to target every hair in a region. The average patient requires 5-8 treatment sessions to see the best results possible. These sessions are spaced out 4-6 weeks.
Is laser hair removal permanent? What can I expect?
YES (and no). The best part about laser hair removal is that once the hair follicle has been destroyed, the results are permanent! A new hair will rarely regrow once killed off.
However, laser hair removal won’t wipe an area clean 100%. Most patients report 70-90% hair reduction on their treated areas. Spare hairs that do emerge are thinner and softer than before. Plus, it drastically reduces the chances of ingrown hairs!
How long do Laser appointments last?
Treatment lengths vary 10-45 minutes depending on the body part, how many areas we’re treating, and your unique, hair follicle size. Comparatively speaking, laser hair removal is a quick procedure. Many patients squeeze them in during a lunch break!
Is there any recovery or after-treatment instructions?
There is no recovery required! Directly after treatment, you can go about your normal routine. Generally, clients experience minimal amounts of redness and no discomfort. We do recommend wearing loose clothing and staying out of the sun the day of and after your appointment since treated skin is sensitive and may be prone to burning.
How much does laser hair removal cost at Lush RX?
Pricing varies depending on what body part we are servicing due to the size and time it takes to treat. Lush RX laser hair removal starts at $300 for small areas. Over a consultation, we can give you a price estimate depending on the areas you’re interested in
