Laser Hair Removal Latham
Laser hair removal is popular among both men and women since it employs light-based technology to remove unwanted hair from the body safely and efficiently.
Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal has become one of the most popular elective procedures in America. It’s an effective method for the long-term reduction or removal of unwanted hair on the face and/or body.

Ideal Candidates
Clarity laser hair removal is a safe and successful therapy for a wide range of people. We will discuss your issues, needs, and objectives at your initial appointment so that we can determine whether or not you should get this therapy. The following people are good candidates for laser hair removal treatments:
- Want to reduce hair on their face or body
- Want to stop using other hair removal techniques (waxing, shaving, bleaching, depilatory creams)
- Have dark hair and light skin
- Are in good, overall physical health
Procedure Technique
On the day of your appointment, you will be requested to lie down in a separate treatment room while oil, grime, and lotions are removed from the parts of your face and body being treated. A team member will slightly stretch the region throughout the process to establish a clear channel between the laser and the hair follicle root. The Clarity laser beam will focus on the follicle and destroy it, effectively stopping the hair from growing back.
To receive the optimum results, you’ll need 3–5 sessions spread out over 3–4 weeks. Your treatments are spaced apart to allow time for the damaged regions to recover. It also gives follicles in the latent phase time to cycle into active development, allowing the laser to be effective. Hebe Medical Spa’s unique laser hair removal technique targets just the hair follicle, leaving the skin and other tissue in the treatment region unharmed.
What To Expect
Despite the fact that laser hair removal is generally mild, the treated parts of your skin may seem sunburned owing to the usage of lasers. You can resume all regular activities once you leave our clinic, but you should avoid exercise and direct sun exposure for at least one day to allow the treated skin to heal. We recommend using soothing creams or cold packs at home after your session to relieve any moderate pain.
Frequently Asked Question
How Much Does Laser Hair Removal Cost?
Laser hair removal is a procedure that varies in cost, depending on the coverage area being addressed on the body, as well as how many sessions are needed to obtain a smooth, hairless result. When we discuss pricing with our patients, we often bring up the costs associated with waxing and how this can add up over time, especially if you get waxed on a regular basis year after year. Laser hair removal is more costly than waxing or other hair removal methods, but it is generally the most effective.
We will create a custom plan for you that includes the total number of sessions recommended and pricing options to consider.
How Effective Is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal is known to be a solid solution for hair removal. While some men and women can enjoy the benefits of the treatment for years, it is considered semi-permanent in some cases. Meaning, there could potentially be some hair growth that occurs in areas where the laser technology did not hit. Regardless, patients find the majority of the hair will be gone after their treatment plan has concluded and even if some hairs pop up, it is very easy to manage. Most patients find they receive a smooth result.
Additional laser hair removal treatments can also be scheduled to take care of any stragglers or new growth as well.
Does It Hurt?
Laser hair removal may cause some minor discomfort, but it is not considered a painful procedure. Most patients will feel a slight sting when the laser targets and removes the hair follicle. We can apply a numbing ointment to the surface of the skin prior to the start of the treatment session. For patients who are used to getting waxed, they report that laser hair removal causes much less discomfort than a normal waxing session.
Do I Need Multiple Laser Hair Removal Sessions?
Hair growth occurs in varying cycles. While some hair may be in a live growing phase, others may be dormant. Since each follicle grows in various stages, multiple treatment sessions are typically needed to target each hair and follicle at its growing phase. Between treatment sessions, the hairs that do grow can be shaved because the follicle is not affected. Laser hair removal removes the hair from the follicle, but the laser must be able to see the hair to remove it. If a follicle is dormant, it is harder for the laser to read.
Spreading out your sessions over various weeks helps remove each follicle for the smoothest, most effective result.
Which Laser Is Best To Remove Hair?
There are many great lasers on the market today. Hebe Medical Spa is proud to offer the latest hair removal technology for patients of varying hair types. The Clarity lasers we invest in offer excellent results, and we continue to upgrade our technologies as newer lasers enter the marketplace and become available. We encourage you to ask us about our in-house technology during your laser hair removal consultation.
