  1. Step 1

  2. Step 2

    CAN ANYONE USE LASER HAIR REMOVAL? Yes, during the 1990's the lasers were less sophisticated. They only worked well on light skinned, dark haired individuals. But, now, armed with new technology, lasers are able to successfully treat all skin pigments.

  3. Step 3

    NUMBER OF TREATMENTS: Generally speaking, a client will require 5 to 7 treatments. Some may require less, and some more, depending on the area of the body hair.

  4. Step 4

    WHAT AREAS CAN BE TREATED WITH LASER HAIR REMOVAL: Bikini, Legs, Facial Hair, Back, Chest and Abdominal Hair, Arms, and Underarms.

  5. Step 5

    PRICING: Prices can vary depending on the area and location. Here are some average prices for One Session: Bikini $130-$230, Lower Leg $235, Upper Leg $380, Back $400. The cost is expensive short term. However, if you add up the amount of money and time you spend long-term on waxing, shaving, and on other hair removal treatments that are not permanent, it will be easy to see why laser removal procedures have become so popular.

  6. Step 6

    FIND A DERMATOLOGIST IN YOUR AREA: Make sure they specialize in Laser Hair Removal. Ask who will be performing the procedure. Ideally, a doctor would be best; but, in many circumstances a certified laser technician will be appointed. Ask how long the technician has been certified and working on clients. Call and make an appointment for a free consultation.

  7. Step 7

    LASER HAIR REMOVAL MACHINES ARE NOT ALL THE SAME: Be sure to ask what kind of laser device the Dermatologist uses. Some models and brands are considered inferior to others.
