What is laser hair removal?

Laser hair removal is a non-invasive procedure that uses concentrated light beams to target and destroy hair follicles, resulting in long-term hair reduction. Imagine the freedom of no longer needing to wax, tweeze, or shave—just smooth, hair-free skin. Laser hair removal in Baltimore with our team can give you a new lease on life by eliminating the discomfort of ingrown hairs, razor bumps, and stubble. For those tired of the repetitive cycle of shaving or painful waxing, laser hair removal offers a convenient, mess-free solution with long-lasting results, freeing up your time and boosting your confidence.


How does laser hair removal work to restore smooth, silky skin?

A Comprehensive, Personalized Approach

The Candela Gentle Max Pro and Motus AY lasers are powerful devices that are capable of treating all skin tones. It is safe for use on skin of color and is extremely comfortable. During your treatment, the laser will beam highly concentrated light right into the hair follicles. Pigment in the follicles will absorb the light, destroying the hair at its root. You can remove unwanted hair from your face, legs, arms, underarms, bikini line, back, and chest.

Laser treatments target hairs without damaging the surrounding skin. Each pulse takes a fraction of a second and can treat many hairs at a time. In most cases, our Baltimore patients will see significant, permanent hair reduction with ongoing treatment.

“Had a few treatments so far and I don't know why I didn't start sooner! They work with my hectic schedule and I've always been seen on time. Staff is great. Helpful with questions before and after appointment. I even called a few days later to ask something and they were so amazing!”

How should I prepare for laser hair removal treatment?

Make sure you do not pluck or wax the area you plan to treat for about six weeks prior to your treatment. You should also decrease your exposure to the sun before the procedure to make sure you get the best results.

What remarkable improvements should I expect from my laser hair removal session?

You will experience minimal to no discomfort during the procedure. You will need to schedule your next treatment four to six weeks later and continue treatments until all the hair stops growing. You should see significant hair reduction after your first treatment.

What are the benefits of laser hair removal?

  • Uniform results: The outcome with laser hair removal in Baltimore is smooth, predictable and aesthetically pleasing. Within just a few treatments sessions, most patients experience significant freedom from unwanted hair, improving their quality of life and self-confidence.

Laser Hair Removal FAQ's

Is laser hair removal suitable for all skin types?

Laser hair removal is generally effective for a wide range of skin types, but its success can vary depending on the specific laser technology used and the individual's skin and hair color. Consulting with a qualified practitioner is essential to determine suitability for your skin type.

Does laser hair removal work for blonde or red hairs?

Laser hair removal is less effective on blonde or red hairs because the laser targets melanin (pigment) in the hair. Since lighter hair has less melanin, it may require more sessions or alternative treatments to achieve desired results.

Does laser hair removal hurt?

Laser hair removal may cause some discomfort, often described as a sensation similar to a rubber band snapping against the skin. However, the level of pain is generally tolerable and varies among individuals.

How many treatments are required for permanent hair reduction?

While the actual number of treatments may vary on a variety of different factors, most patients would need an average of 10 treatments to see long term results.

Is it safe to get laser hair removal if I have a tattoo?

Yes, you can get laser hair removal if you have a tattoo, but not directly over the tattooed area. The laser targets pigment, and treating a tattoo could result in burns or pigment scattering, so it's important to disclose any tattoos before starting treatment.

How much does laser hair removal cost?

The cost of laser hair removal varies depending on factors such as the size of the treatment area and the number of sessions needed. Generally, larger areas and more sessions will increase the overall price.
