Why Winter is the Ideal Time to Start Laser Hair Removal Treatment

When there’s a chill in the air and the trees are shedding their leaves, the last thing you’re thinking of is swimsuit season. But winter is the ideal time to start laser hair removal treatments to ensure you have perfectly smooth skin by summer.

  • Neck, face, and upper lip
  • Back and chest
  • Arms and underarms

Both female and male clients love our laser hair removal treatment. 

How laser technology removes hair for the long-term 

Laser hair removal works using diode laser technology. We use the Venus Velocity™ laser system, the industry gold standard. The laser sends a beam of energy to the roots of your hair. Pigment in your hair soaks in the light, destroying the hair follicle. That hair is gone for good. 

The Food and Drug Administration approved laser hair removal in the mid-1990s. It’s one of the most common aesthetic procedures in the United States.  

That should be no surprise since women spend more than 1,700 hours — or 72 days over a lifetime — shaving legs and arms, and men spend over 1,000 hours shaving. Why waste so many hours over your lifetime shaving or waxing facial or leg hair? 

How many laser hair removal sessions do I need? 

If you want smooth skin for the holidays, start laser hair removal now. We advise between four and six laser hair removal appointments. 

You need to wait for about one month between sessions depending on the thickness of your hair. We let you know when to schedule your appointments. 

Does laser hair removal work on all skin types?

Years ago, laser hair removal was only effective if you had dark hair and light skin. With advances in technology, it’s now effective for all skin types. 

Will hair removed by laser be gone forever? 

You’ll likely be free of hair for years. If any hair grows back, we have a Beauty Promise Program that ensures we take care of any maintenance visits if they’re needed.
