What to Expect During Laser Hair Removal
Treatment sessions are quick and efficient
You may feel a mild snapping or warming sensation
No significant downtime is required
Multiple sessions are recommended for optimal results
Hair grows in cycles, which is why treatments are spaced several weeks apart to target follicles at the right stage.
Why Laser Hair Removal?
For many people, unwanted hair is more than just a cosmetic concern—it can affect confidence, consume valuable time, and become a constant source of frustration. Between daily shaving, frequent waxing appointments, ingrown hairs, razor burn, and skin irritation, traditional hair removal methods often become expensive, inconvenient, and uncomfortable over time.
Laser hair removal offers a smarter, more efficient solution by targeting the source of hair growth rather than simply removing hair at the surface. Instead of shaving every morning or scheduling monthly waxing appointments, laser treatments gradually reduce hair growth over time, allowing many clients to enjoy smoother skin with significantly less maintenance.
Save Time Every Week
Think about how much time you spend shaving over the course of a year. For many women, shaving legs, underarms, and bikini areas several times each week adds up to dozens of hours annually. Men who shave their neck or beard line frequently experience similar maintenance.
Laser hair removal dramatically reduces the need for constant shaving, allowing you to spend less time maintaining unwanted hair and more time enjoying your everyday life.
Say Goodbye to Ingrown Hairs
Ingrown hairs occur when hair becomes trapped beneath the surface of the skin, leading to painful bumps, inflammation, discoloration, and sometimes infection. These are especially common after shaving or waxing areas such as the bikini line, underarms, neck, chest, and face.
Because laser hair removal reduces hair growth at the follicle, many clients notice a significant improvement in ingrown hairs after only a few treatments.
Reduce Razor Burn and Irritation
Frequent shaving often causes:
Razor burn
Skin sensitivity
Small cuts
Dark shaving shadow
Dryness
Irritation
Laser hair removal helps eliminate the repetitive trauma caused by razors, allowing skin to appear smoother and healthier over time.
Long-Term Cost Savings
Although laser hair removal requires an initial investment, many clients are surprised by how much money they spend on temporary hair removal over the years.
Consider the ongoing costs of:
Razors
Shaving cream
Waxing appointments
Depilatory creams
Aftercare products
Time away from work or home
Over a lifetime, these expenses often exceed the cost of laser hair removal while providing only temporary results.
More Confidence Every Day
Many clients tell us that laser hair removal has improved their confidence just as much as their appearance. Whether it's wearing shorts without shaving first, feeling comfortable at the gym, enjoying a spontaneous beach day, or no longer worrying about facial hair, laser hair removal provides freedom that many people haven't experienced in years.
How Laser Hair Removal Works
Laser hair removal uses highly concentrated light energy to selectively target the pigment (melanin) found within the hair follicle. This process, known as selective photothermolysis, allows the laser to damage the follicle while minimizing injury to the surrounding skin.
When the laser emits energy, the dark pigment inside the hair absorbs the light and converts it into heat. That heat travels down the hair shaft and into the follicle, disrupting its ability to produce new hair. Over time, treated follicles become less active, resulting in slower, finer, and less noticeable hair growth.
One of the greatest advantages of laser hair removal is that it treats hair beneath the surface of the skin. Unlike shaving, which only removes visible hair, laser technology addresses the follicle itself—the structure responsible for producing future hair.
Why Multiple Treatments Are Needed
Not every hair is actively growing at the same time. Hair naturally cycles through different growth phases, and laser energy is most effective during the active growth stage.
Since only a percentage of your hairs are treatable during each visit, multiple treatments are necessary to gradually reduce hair growth as additional follicles enter the active phase.
Most clients require a series of treatments spaced approximately six to eight weeks apart depending on the treatment area and individual hair growth patterns.
What Happens to the Hair?
Following treatment, the hair does not immediately disappear. Instead, it gradually sheds over the following one to three weeks. Many clients mistake this shedding for continued growth, but it is actually the treated hair being naturally expelled from the follicle.
With each successive treatment, the hair generally becomes:
Finer
Lighter
Softer
Less dense
Slower to return
Eventually, many follicles stop producing visible hair altogether, leaving smoother skin with significantly less maintenance.
Understanding the Hair Growth Cycle
One of the most common questions we hear is:
"If the laser works so well, why do I need multiple treatments?"
The answer lies in the natural hair growth cycle.
Every individual hair on your body progresses through three different phases of growth, and laser hair removal is most effective when the follicle is in its active growing stage.
Anagen Phase (Active Growth)
The anagen phase is when the hair is actively growing and remains connected to the blood supply that nourishes the follicle. Because the hair contains the highest concentration of melanin during this stage, laser energy is able to travel efficiently down the hair shaft into the follicle.
This is the ideal time for treatment and when the laser can achieve the greatest reduction in future hair growth.
Catagen Phase (Transition)
During the catagen phase, the hair begins separating from the follicle and stops actively growing. Because the connection between the hair and follicle is weakening, laser treatments become less effective.
Some hairs treated during this phase may still respond, but results are generally not as predictable as during anagen.
Telogen Phase (Resting)
In the resting phase, the old hair remains within the follicle before eventually shedding naturally. At this stage, there is very little connection between the visible hair and the follicle itself, making laser treatment significantly less effective.
Eventually, the follicle enters a new anagen phase and begins producing another hair, which is why future laser sessions are scheduled several weeks apart.
Why Treatments Are Spaced 6–8 Weeks Apart
Only a portion of your hair is in the active growth phase during any given appointment. By waiting six to eight weeks between sessions, additional follicles naturally transition into anagen, allowing us to effectively target new groups of hairs with each treatment.
This gradual approach is what leads to the smooth, long-lasting reduction in hair growth that laser hair removal is known for.
Rather than expecting immediate permanent results after a single visit, think of laser hair removal as a progressive process. Each treatment builds upon the previous one, gradually reducing the number of active follicles until only minimal maintenance is needed.

-
Yes. Laser hair removal is extremely popular for reducing ingrown hairs and razor irritation.
-
Laser hair removal is a cosmetic procedure that uses concentrated beams of light to remove unwanted hair by targeting the hair follicles.
-
The laser emits a light that's absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair follicles, damaging them to inhibit future hair growth without affecting the surrounding skin.
-
During laser treatment, a diode laser beam passes through the skin towards hair follicles. The penetrating energy then heats up the root of the hair, which in turn prevents future hair growth.
-
Most people describe the sensation as a slight discomfort or snapping feeling, often compared to a rubber band snapping against the skin. Many lasers now incorporate cooling systems to minimize discomfort. DiolazeXL has a built-in skin cooling surface which is one of the largest for all hair removal devices. This makes treatment more comfortable than other devices, with most patients noting that DiolazeXL is virtually painless.
-
As with all laser hair removal methods, DiolazeXL requires a series of treatments. Laser hair removal works best when hair follicles are in their mature stage; however, at any given time your hair is in various stages of growth.
-
Hair is reduced with each treatment and results are observed after four to six sessions. Multiple sessions are usually needed for optimal results. The exact number varies based on skin color, hair color, and the targeted treatment area.
-
Advances in technology have made laser hair removal safer for a variety of skin tones. However, it's essential to consult with a skilled professional experienced in treating diverse skin types.

Laser Hair Removal Pre-Care
Avoid laser hair removal if pregnant or nursing
Shave the area to be treated with laser 1-2 days prior to your appointment. You can shave as often as desired between laser treatments.
Discontinue waxing, tweezing, threading, depilatories and electrolysis for at least 3 weeks prior to your treatment and throughout treatment.
Stop retinoids 2 weeks prior to your treatment unless otherwise advised.
Avoid applying makeup on the day of treatment if getting laser hair removal on the face.
Avoid tanning prior to your treatment. Any patient with a significant tan or sunburn may be rescheduled due to the sensitivity of the procedure to altered skin color and for the sake of your own safety.
If you have a history of cold sores, please let the provider know.
Caution is advised to persons with a history of herpes in the treatment area. Those who carry the herpes virus and receive laser treatment on their upper lip, chin, or lower cheeks may have a “flare-up” of their condition. The risk of this complication can be reduced if you take prescribed antiviral medication in the office on the day of your treatment, which we can provide to you. If you have an active herpes outbreak, your appointment will have to be rescheduled.
Laser Hair Removal Post-Care
The treatment area is very delicate and should be treated gently. It is common to experience slight swelling and redness at the treatment site.
Avoid direct sun exposure to treated areas for at least one-week post-treatment and all signs of redness and irritation have subsided. Always wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen with a minimum of SPF 30 daily, and reapply as directed.
Avoid trauma to the treatment area such as scratching, picking, or rubbing.
Avoid pools, hot tubs, jacuzzis, saunas, and steam rooms for 3 days.
Avoid any deep exfoliation treatments or creams containing a chemical exfoliator for 2 weeks pre and post-treatment such as microdermabrasion, retinoids, or glycolic acid.
You may apply cold compresses or ice packs to the treated area to ease discomfort.
