Laser Hair Removal
There are many options for removing unwanted hair, but if you're not happy with shaving, tweezing, and waxing are too high-maintenance, then laser might be the perfect fit.
What is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser Hair Removal (LHR) is a treatment where beams of Light are used to remove unwanted hair from the face, leg, chin, back, arm, underarms, bikini line, and other areas.
How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?
Laser hair removal is one of America’s most commonly done cosmetic procedures. It beams highly concentrated Light into your follicles, destroying them by absorbing that laser’s energy and blasting away pigment inside them with its high-powered beam!
How Much Does Laser Hair Removal Cost?
A small area for LHR starts at around $50 and can go up to the thousands of dollars depending on the area you want Laser Hair Removal on and how many sessions you buy.
How Long Does Laser Hair Removal Last?
After you’re finished receiving all of your sessions, laser hair removal can last up to two years; however, it’s always a good idea to keep an eye on the area to avoid unwanted growth. Maintenance appointments may need repeating every few months or when new hairs start showing themselves because they grow fast!
Laser Hair Removal Made Easy
We’ve all been there: body hair maintenance can be a serious hassle. Sometimes you want to go to the beach without having to schedule a wax before you do; other times, you want to hang out with friends without worrying about those unsightly sideburns; and sometimes, it’s just a matter of wanting to put your most feminine face forward, without the worry of unwanted hair. And guys, we won’t forget you. You may want to rid yourself of that hairy back or chest. Whatever the case, laser hair removal may be the answer to your prayers.
The Benefits of Laser Hair Removal
Why choose laser hair removal over conventional hair removal techniques? There are many benefits to laser treatments, including the following:
- High precision: Unlike shaving and waxing, laser technology can selectively target dark, coarse hairs and leave surrounding skin undamaged.
- High speed: Laser light is emitted in super-fast pulses, which take a fraction of a second each. With advancements in laser technology, an experienced practitioner can treat many hairs at once – an area approximately the size of a quarter every second. This means treatment times are fast – the upper lip can be treated in under a minute, and large areas like the back or legs take up to an hour.
- Highly effective: Unlike conventional shaving and waxing, laser hair removal offers a permanent solution. You can expect permanent hair loss after an average of three to seven sessions.
Why We Use Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Laser Therapy
Studies have shown that pulsed laser light therapy is more effective and advanced than standard laser hair removal therapy. Pulsed Light can deliver hundreds or thousands of light colors at a time, and each color can be used selectively to reach a specific hair, blood vessel, or skin component requiring treatment. This capability allows our experienced Beverly Hills Rejuvenation Center Pulsed Light Physicians to vary the type and intensity of Light delivered to match the depth of the target hairs and avoid surrounding areas. IPL is more effective and safer for our customers.
Conditions laser hair removal
Laser hair removal is a treatment that uses concentrated Light to target the roots of unwanted hair. The pigment in the hair follicles absorbs the Light, causing them to overheat and eventually be destroyed. Laser hair removal can be used to treat a variety of conditions, including:
- Unwanted facial hair
- Ingrown hairs
- Hair loss due to medical conditions such as alopecia
- Excess body hair due to hormonal imbalances
Laser hair removal is a safe and effective way to reduce unwanted hair growth. It can be used on all skin types and is ideal for those who have tried other methods, such as shaving, waxing, or depilatory creams, without success.

If you’re considering a laser hair removal session with us, here’s what you can expect. Before your procedure, the target hair will be trimmed close to your skin surface, so the laser can be adjusted according to the color, thickness, and location of the specific hair follicles to be removed. Your actual skin color will also be determined so that any necessary blending can be done to ensure flawless, beautiful skin.
