How should I prepare for laser hair removal?

An initial consultation is required to assess suitability. Clients should avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, spray tanning, waxing, plucking, or bleaching before treatment. The area should be shaved before the appointment, and clients should advise Glow Luxe if they have recently used Accutane, antibiotics, or photosensitizing medications.

What body areas can be treated with laser hair removal?

Common laser hair removal areas include upper lip, chin, cheeks, neck, hairline, underarms, bikini, Brazilian, legs, arms, chest, and back.

Is laser hair removal permanent?

Laser hair removal provides significant long-term hair reduction. Most clients require a series of treatments because hair grows in cycles. Some maintenance treatments may be needed over time due to hormonal changes, dormant follicles, or new growth patterns.

Is laser hair removal safe?

Laser hair removal is considered safe when performed by certified and experienced technicians using Health Canada-approved devices. Glow Luxe provides a consultation before treatment to review skin type, medical history, medications, and suitability.

How many laser hair removal sessions are required?

Most clients require approximately 6 to 8 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. The number of treatments may vary depending on hair colour, hair density, skin tone, hormones, and treatment area.

What should I expect after laser hair removal?

Mild redness similar to a light sunburn may occur and usually subsides within 2 to 24 hours. Treated hair may shed over the following 7 to 14 days. For the first 24 hours, clients should avoid hot tubs, chlorinated pools, tight clothing, and vigorous exercise that may create friction.

Are you tired of "the pricklies"? Are you frustrated by painful ingrown hairs, expensive waxing appointments, or the constant cycle of nicks and cuts from shaving? If you answered yes, then laser hair removal is exactly what you’ve been looking for.

While there are many ways to remove body and facial hair, most are temporary, painful, or incredibly slow. Our laser hair removal technology is fast, comfortable, and provides permanent hair reduction.

5 Reasons to Choose Laser Hair Removal

1. Gentle on Sensitive Skin

If shaving leaves you with rashes and irritation, laser is your best friend. Because the laser targets the follicle directly, there is no surface abrasion or chemical irritation, making it ideal for sensitive skin types.

2. End the Nightmare of Ingrown Hairs

Laser hair removal is the gold standard for treating and preventing ingrown hairs. By neutralizing the hair at the root, it eliminates the "trap" that causes painful, red bumps.

3. Reclaim Your Time

Personal grooming shouldn't be a part-time job. Laser is significantly faster than electrolysis and eliminates the daily chore of shaving. That’s more time for the things you actually love to do.

4. A Smarter Long-Term Investment

While there is a cost upfront, the "long-term math" is undeniable. Over your lifetime, you will save thousands of dollars on razors, shaving creams, and professional waxing sessions.

5. Permanent Smoothness

Enjoy silky-smooth skin that’s a pleasure to touch. No more rough stubble to snag your sweaters or cause abrasion to your partner—just effortless, soft skin.
