ABOUT EYEBROW LASER HAIR REMOVAL

Laser hair removal uses laser light pulses to selectively destroy actively growing hair follicles by targeting the melanin (color) in them. The melanin in the hair follicle absorbs the laser’s light pulse, which travels down to destroy the root of the hair, as well as its surrounding structures.

A laser hair removal treatment can last anywhere from a few minutes to an hour, depending on the size and number of areas being treated. Before the treatment, your clinician will ask you a few important medical-related questions, and you’ll prep the area to be treated by removing deodorant, covering tattoos and wiping off any makeup, sunscreen or lotion. Then, you’ll be given protective eye gear. Once the treatment begins, you can just sit back, relax and enjoy episodes of your favorite reality shows or listen to your favorite music while your clinician does their work. If you’re having trouble relaxing, we also have stress balls! Once the treatment is done, we’ll give you some soothing cream and aftercare instructions to take home.

Maybe. It’s different for everyone—some find it stings & some are totally unbothered by it. The good news? Our clinical staff knows to assess your pain tolerance & plan accordingly with multiple ways to make the treatment as comfortable as possible for you. We have an awesome zimmer chiller with multiple settings to cool your skin off during the entire treatment, as well as stress balls (trust us: this works) and ice packs for those extra-sensitive areas. But ask yourself this: does having a huge razor bump in a not-cute location hurt? I think we all know the answer to that one.

LaserAway uses the Cynosure Apogee Elite, which is safe and effective for all skin types thanks to its dual wavelengths: the Nd:YAG and the Alexandrite. The lasers used in laser hair removal are highly sensitive to all skin colors and pigments. This means they can more precisely penetrate hair follicles without damaging surrounding tissue.

There are a few potential side effects, but nothing crazy. The most common ones include redness, swelling, itching or laser bumps, but by following our aftercare instructions, they should go away within a day or two. Your LaserAway Clinician will give you more detailed information at your appointment, or you can click here to get more info in advance.

Laser hair removal provides permanent hair reduction by up to 80 percent after a series of six to eight treatments.

You’ll be asked to discontinue waxing or tweezing six weeks before a laser hair removal treatment. You’ll also be asked to avoid sun exposure and spray tans two weeks beforehand. Click here for your complete list of pre-care instructions.

It depends on the hair’s density and the location of the area being treated. Because only hair follicles in the active growth stage can be successfully targeted during a laser hair removal treatment, you will need multiple sessions. It could be anywhere from 4-10 treatments, spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Check out our area-specific service pages or ask your LaserAway Clinician for specifics.

The good news: Our lasers treat all skin types and most skin and hair combos. The only catch: Since our lasers target hair pigment, we are unable to treat body hair that’s blonde, red, grey or white.
