The laser targets the follicle—where hair is manufactured—deep under the skin. By disrupting the follicle, we prevent regrowth of the hair at its source.

Here's the key difference: Shaving, waxing, and depilatory creams all target the HAIR itself by cutting, removing, or dissolving it. Laser hair removal, on the other hand, targets the root cause—it disrupts the follicle itself. Damaging the follicle slows or permanently stops the ability to produce hair. This is why the results are long-lasting, and often even permanent, compared to other methods.

Your follicles grow in cycles—at times they are actively growing, later they become dormant, and then eventually fall out. The laser can only disrupt the follicle when it's actively growing.

Because your follicles are actively growing in cycles, it's impossible to target them all during a single treatment. Therefore, you'll need a series of repeated treatments to stop all the hair follicles from growing. Each session targets the hair in the active growth phase. Over time, fewer hairs grow back, and the ones that do tend to be finer, lighter, and slower growing.

With repeated treatments, we can target all the active follicles, preventing future hair growth. Most people need about 6-12 treatments to achieve hair-free results—this can vary based on your skin, hair, and body physiology.
