Come one, come all! For the month of March we are offering 20% off laser hair removal treatments! Therefore, we thought it would be beneficial to our clients and patients to go over some frequently asked questions about this treatment. As one of our most popular lasers, it is in the best interest of your skin health to know what to expect before and after treatments.

How many treatments will I need? Is is permanent?

Typically clients need a minimum of six treatments. In some areas, faster results will be achieved. Results will vary based on hair growth and area being treated. However, the results achieved will be permanent.

How far apart are treatments?

It’s best to treat the hair during its growth cycle therefore, each treatment is done 6-8 weeks apart.

Can I wax or shave between treatments?

You cannot wax while receiving laser hair removal, but you can shave. The hair remaining between sessions will begin to shed. Some people may only experience very fine hair growth.

Will it work on my skin tone?

Yes! The GentleMax Pro laser currently in use at Coccolare can treat all skin tones. However, it can only treat dark pigmented hair. It cannot treat white, grey, blonde, or red hair.

Is laser hair removal painful?

You will experience some mild to moderate discomfort, depending on the area being treated.

How long do sessions last?

It depends on the treatment area. For example, treating a lip or chin area, it may take roughly 15 minutes, while a bikini area may take around 30 minutes.

What should I do prior to my sessions? Is there any downtime after treatments?

Your hair should be as short as possible for laser hair removal treatments to be successful. It is advised that you shave a day or two prior to your appointment. There is no downtime, but it is best to avoid direct sunlight to the area. Clients should avoid sunbathing or tanning beds. Treat your skin with care for the 24 hours following your sessions. Taking a hot bath, excessive sweating, or the use of exfoliants can irritate your skin in the treatment areas.

Do I need a consultation? Do you offer a package series?

Yes, new clients to this treatment need a consult prior to service to rule out any contraindications, as well as speak with our laser technicians about concerns or desired results. We do offer packages; prices vary by area, as well as the number of treatments per package. All of these can be discussed in your consultation.

Do I need a consultation? Do you offer a package series?
