Silky Smooth Confidence
At Perfect Skin Laser Center, we understand how frustrating and time-consuming traditional hair removal methods can be. Shaving, waxing, and depilatory creams are not only temporary, but they often lead to ingrown hairs, irritation, and missed spots. That’s why more people are turning to laser hair removal — a safe, effective, and long-lasting solution for unwanted hair on the face and body.

What is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses concentrated beams of light to target hair follicles. The laser emits light that is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair shaft, generating heat that destroys the follicle’s ability to regrow hair without damaging the surrounding skin.
Because hair grows in cycles, multiple sessions are required to catch each follicle in its active growth phase. Over time, this results in a significant and permanent reduction in hair growth.
Common Areas Treated with Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal is a versatile treatment that can target unwanted hair nearly anywhere on the body with precision and long-lasting results. Whether you’re looking to smooth a small facial area or treat larger body zones, our advanced laser systems allow us to safely and effectively address a wide range of treatment sites, including the following:
- Upper lip
- Chin
- Sideburns
- Cheeks
- Neck (front and back)
- Underarms
- Arms
- Forearms
- Hands and fingers
- Abdomen
- Stomach line
- Back
- Shoulders
- Bikini line
- Brazilian area
- Inner thighs
Benefits of Laser Hair Removal
Long-Term Results
After completing a whole series of sessions, most patients experience a 70–90% reduction in hair growth in the treated area. Some individuals may require occasional touch-ups, once or twice a year, to maintain their results.
Precision Targeting
The laser selectively targets dark, coarse hairs while leaving the surrounding skin untouched, ideal for delicate areas such as the bikini line, face, or underarms.
Time and Money Savings
Over time, the cost of razors, waxing appointments, and hair removal creams adds up. Laser treatments reduce the need for these repeated purchases, offering a long-term solution that saves you both time and money.
Reduced Ingrown Hairs
Laser treatments significantly reduce or eliminate ingrown hairs, razor bumps, and irritation — especially beneficial for patients with curly or coarse hair.
Minimal Downtime
There’s little to no recovery time after a laser hair removal session. You can return to work or daily activities immediately, with only minor redness or warmth in the treated area for a few hours.
How Laser Hair Removal Compares to Other Hair Removal Methods
When it comes to achieving smooth, low-maintenance skin, laser hair removal stands in a class of its own:
Laser Hair Removal vs. Shaving
- Long-Term Reduction, Not a Daily Task: Shaving only removes surface hair and requires frequent upkeep. Laser hair removal targets the root, resulting in permanent hair reduction and significantly fewer regrowth cycles.
- No Razor Burn or Ingrown Hairs: Shaving can cause irritation, nicks, and bumps. Laser treatment helps reduce or eliminate these issues, particularly in sensitive areas such as the bikini line or underarms.
- More Time Back in Your Day: Imagine not having to shave every other day. With laser treatments, many patients enjoy smooth skin for months or years with just a few sessions.
Laser Hair Removal vs. Waxing
- Less Pain, More Precision: While waxing pulls hair from the root, it’s often painful and can cause redness or bruising. Laser treatments are described as a gentle snapping sensation and become more comfortable with each session.
- No Waiting for Growth: Unlike waxing, you don’t need to wait for visible hair to regrow. In fact, you’re encouraged to shave before your laser appointment.
- Fewer Treatments Over Time: Waxing requires appointments every few weeks. Laser hair removal significantly reduces the need for ongoing maintenance.
Laser Hair Removal vs. Electrolysis
- Faster for Large Areas: Electrolysis treats each hair follicle individually, making it a slow process, especially for areas like the legs or back. Laser hair removal treats multiple follicles at once for more efficient coverage.
- Comfortable and Non-Invasive: Both methods offer permanent hair removal, but laser treatments are generally more comfortable and don’t require needle insertion.
Best for Medium to Large Areas: While electrolysis can be effective for small or light-colored areas, laser hair removal is the preferred option for fast, full-area treatment.

Revlite “Laser Waxing” – Gentle Removal for Fine or Light Hair
Revlite laser hair reduction is ideal for patients with finer or lighter hairs that are typically resistant to other lasers. While not as permanent as our other systems, this treatment provides an advanced alternative to traditional waxing, eliminating discomfort and the need for frequent maintenance.
What sets Revlite apart:
- Targets Hard-to-Treat Hair: Beneficial for facial areas where hair is lighter and more delicate.
- Low-Sensation Treatment: Patients describe it as nearly painless—no ripping, no stinging.
- Longer-Lasting Than Waxing: Delivers smoother skin with results that outlast conventional waxing methods.
We often refer to Revlite sessions as “laser waxing” because they offer a semi-permanent solution with significantly less irritation than manual hair removal techniques.
How Laser Hair Removal Works
Consultation and Preparation
Every treatment begins with a consultation, during which we evaluate your skin type, hair texture, and medical history to determine the best course of action. We’ll also discuss your goals and the number of treatments likely needed.
You’ll be asked to shave the treatment area 24 hours before your appointment. Avoid waxing, plucking, or using depilatory creams, as the root of the hair must be intact for the laser to be effective.
Treatment
During the treatment, a handheld device emits precise laser pulses onto the skin. Most patients describe the sensation as a mild snapping or tingling feeling, often compared to the flick of a rubber band.
Our laser systems include integrated cooling technologies to keep your skin comfortable and safe throughout the process. No numbing agents are required for most treatments.
Recovery
Laser hair removal is considered a no-downtime treatment, but there are a few steps you should follow to keep your skin healthy post-treatment:
- Avoid Direct Sun Exposure: Protect the treated area from the sun for at least a week. Use SPF 30 or higher daily.
- Skip Harsh Products: Avoid retinoids, glycolic acid, and exfoliating products for 48 hours.
- Cool the Skin: Apply cold compresses or aloe vera gel to ease any temporary redness or warmth.
Let Hair Fall Out Naturally: Don’t wax or pluck between treatments—shaving is okay if needed.
FAQs About Laser Hair Removal
How Much Does Laser Hair Removal Cost?
The cost of laser hair removal depends on the size of the area being treated and the total number of sessions required to achieve optimal results. At Perfect Skin Laser Center, we offer transparent pricing, bundled treatment packages, and monthly specials to make long-term hair reduction more affordable.
During your consultation, we’ll create a custom plan based on your goals, hair type, and treatment areas — and provide clear pricing upfront.
Is Laser Hair Removal Safe For People With Hormonal Imbalances?
Yes, but results may vary. If you have a condition like PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome) or another hormone-related disorder that causes excessive hair growth, laser hair removal can still reduce hair density and slow regrowth. However, maintenance sessions may be needed more frequently.
Can I Get Laser Hair Removal If I Have Tattoos?
Laser hair removal cannot be performed directly over tattoos, as the pigment in the ink can attract the laser energy and cause burns or pigment changes. We can treat the area around the tattoo, but not directly on top of it. Let us know during your consultation so we can plan accordingly.
What If I Miss A Session Or Two?
Laser hair removal cannot be performed directly over tattoos, as the pigment in the ink can attract the laser energy and cause burns or pigment changes. We can treat the area around the tattoo, but not directly on top of it. Let us know during your consultation so we can plan accordingly.
Can I Tan After Laser Hair Removal?
We recommend avoiding direct sun exposure and tanning (including self-tanner) for at least one to two weeks post-treatment, as freshly treated skin can be more sensitive and prone to pigmentation changes. Always use SPF 30 or higher to protect the treated areas.
