What Are the Benefits of Laser Hair Removal?
There are many benefits of Laser Hair Removal that separate it from other forms of hair elimination treatment – such as tweezing, waxing, or threading. These include:
- Permanent hair removal
- Quick sessions – typically ranging from a few minutes to a half hour
- Relatively painless procedure
- May also prevent ingrown hairs and skin irritation
- Works on all skin tones and types
- May be used on all areas of the body
How Laser Hair Removal Works
Ingrown hairs are a common issue, but laser hair removal offers a truly permanent solution. It’s a safe procedure involving a laser device applied briefly to the targeted area. This laser’s heat damages hair follicles, rendering them unable to regrow, effectively destroying them at the root.
The effectiveness can vary based on individual hair levels and body areas. Those with dark hair and light skin typically respond well and often require fewer sessions. For areas like the mustache or underarms, the treatment takes only about 20 to 30 minutes.
Laser hair removal is generally not painful; many compare it to a mild snap of a rubber band on the skin. For sensitive skin, a numbing cream can be applied beforehand for added comfort.
Following just one session, you’ll notice a significant reduction in unwanted hair. After completing the entire treatment course, you can expect long-lasting or permanent results. Any occasional regrowth can easily be managed with a simple touch-up session.

Frequently Asked Questions
This depends on where you are using the laser treatment. The face may only take 10 minutes, while larger areas like the legs or back can take 30 minutes or more.
Most experts recommend at least two laser hair removal treatments to achieve the best results -with many people receiving up to six or eight. This is due to the fact that hair follicles develop in unique stages, and need to move far enough towards the surface of the skin to be zapped by the laser. While you’ll see significant results after each treatment, it’s best to discuss with your practitioner how many visits you’ll need for your best results.
Since the heat from the lasers stays in your skin for at least 24 hours after treatment, you need to avoid excess warmth to prevent the spread of bacteria. This means no gym, sauna, hot shower, sun exposure or anything that will heat up your skin. You should also avoid strong skincare products, such as Retinol or chemical peels, for about 2 weeks after treatment. Stick to gentle facial mists and hyaluronic acid serums, and get back to your beloved Retinol in a few weeks!

Here’s the best part - laser hair removal is permanent. While some may need to go in for a touch-up every one to two years, the vast majority of people agree that the hair won’t come back. Ever.
And even if aging or hormonal changes cause a bit of hair to return, it will likely be significantly finer and thinner than it ever was before treatment. And it’s nothing a quick touch-up can’t fix!
This varies by individual, along with the areas of the body being treated. Contact Youth Haus for laser hair removal services in West Hollywood. We can give you a consultation and let you know the cost.
