Book An Appointment
With effective techniques and cutting-edge technology, we'll guide you through what to expect during the laser hair removal process and how it can transform your beauty regimen.
What is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal is a popular method for removing unwanted body hair. It works by targeting the pigment in the hair follicles with a laser, which damages and destroys them, preventing future hair growth. The procedure is safe and effective, with long-lasting results.
How Does it Work for Trans Women?
Trans women have unique concerns when it comes to hair removal. Hormonal imbalances can cause excess hair growth in unwanted areas or make existing hair thicker and coarser. At Laser Beauty Works, we take these factors into consideration and tailor our treatments to meet your specific needs.
We understand that each person's journey is different and requires personalized care. Our staff will work with you to create a treatment plan that addresses your individual concerns, respecting your identity and privacy at all times.
What to Expect: Before, During, and After
Before Your Treatment
Before your laser hair removal treatment, we recommend scheduling a consultation with our team. During this initial meeting, we will discuss your specific goals, assess your skin and hair type, and establish a personalized treatment plan.
To ensure optimal results, it's essential to avoid sun exposure and hair removal methods like waxing or plucking for several weeks leading up to your appointment.
During Your Appointment
On the day of your appointment, you'll be asked to shave the treatment area before arrival. Once you're comfortable and ready, our technician will clean the area. In the rare instance that the pain is too much to handle, numbing cream is available. Then, using a handheld device, they will administer quick pulses of laser energy to the treatment area, targeting individual hair follicles.
You may experience some mild discomfort during the procedure, but most people find it tolerable. The length of each session will depend on the size of the treated area but usually lasts between 15-60 minutes.
After Your Appointment
After your Candela Laser Hair Removal, you may experience some redness or mild swelling in the treated area. This is normal and should subside within a few hours to a day. You can apply ice packs or gentle lotions to soothe any discomfort.
It's essential to follow our aftercare instructions carefully to ensure optimal results. You may need 8-10 sessions for complete hair removal, typically spaced out every 4-6 weeks. However, most people start seeing a significant reduction in hair growth after just one session.
The Benefits of Laser Hair Removal for Trans Women
There are many benefits to laser treatments for trans women, including:
A more feminine appearance: By removing unwanted hair in areas such as the face, chest, back, and legs, you can achieve a more traditionally feminine look.
- Increased confidence: Many trans women report feeling more confident and comfortable in their own skin after laser hair removal treatments.
- Cost-effective: Laser hair removal is a long-term solution that can save time and money compared to temporary hair removal methods like waxing or shaving.
- Better skin health: The constant irritation from shaving can cause skin issues such as ingrown hairs and razor burns. Laser hair removal eliminates the need for daily shaving, promoting healthier and smoother skin.
- Saves time: With laser hair removal, you'll spend less time on your beauty routine, allowing you to focus on other aspects of your life and your transition.
- Preparation for transition-related surgeries: Laser hair removal can also be beneficial for those preparing for gender-affirming surgeries, as it helps to reduce the amount of hair that needs to be removed during procedures such as vaginoplasty and phalloplasty.
