Frequently Asked Questions
How soon will I see the results from laser hair removal?
Most clients begin to notice hair reduction within 2-3 weeks after their first treatment. The full results develop gradually as you complete the recommended treatment series.
Is the laser hair removal process painful?
Most clients find the procedure quite tolerable. You might feel a warm tingling or mild snapping sensation with each pulse, but the Lutronic Clarity’s cooling features help minimize discomfort.
How many treatments will I need for complete hair removal?
In most cases, 6-8 sessions are needed for optimal results. The exact number varies based on your hair color, thickness, and the treatment area. Some areas with coarser hair may need additional sessions.
Can all hair colors be treated with laser removal?
The Lutronic Clarity works best on darker hair colors because the laser targets the pigment in the hair follicle. Very light blonde, white, or gray hairs may be more challenging to treat because they contain less pigment.
Is it normal to shed hair after treatment?
Yes! In the days and weeks following treatment, you’ll notice treated hairs falling out. This is a normal part of the process and shows the treatment is working effectively.
How long should I wait between treatments?
We typically recommend 4-6 weeks between facial treatments and 6-8 weeks between body treatments. This timing aligns with your hair’s natural growth cycles to maximize results.
