Let’s face it: body hair is a part of life. If you are fed up with spending time and money on traditional shaving methods, you are not alone. Shaving, waxing, and depilatory creams are often ineffective and can be uncomfortable. Laser hair removal provides a solution for satiny smooth skin that lasts. If you are ready to ditch the razor and achieve your aesthetic goals, then look no further than LifeGaines hair removal treatment in Miami.
What is Laser Hair Removal Treatment?
Laser hair removal is a technique performed by specialists that uses controlled blasts of highly concentrated light (lasers) to surround hair follicles on certain parts of the body. The light from the lasers is absorbed by the pigment in the follicles, which destroys the hair within the follicle. After several treatments, the hair will be unable to grow back, leaving your skin soft and smooth.
Benefits of Laser Hair Removal Treatment in Miami
Laser hair removal provides numerous benefits to patients. Not only are patients able to get the look they want, but they also describe a renewed confidence using LifeGaines Med Spa Boca Raton laser hair treatments without the itch or unsightly bumps of razor burn. Common areas for treatment include the legs, bikini area, arms, shoulders, back, neck, chest, upper lip, and chin.
The benefits include:
Removing unwanted or excess hair
Leaving you with smooth, soft skin
Providing clients with confidence in their appearance
Who is a Candidate for This Treatment?
The techniques used in laser hair removal treatment work best if you have darker hair. This is because laser hair removal works by using the pigment in your hair follicles, and the darker the hair, the better the light from the laser can be absorbed, and the more effectively the hair can be destroyed inside the follicle.
Laser hair removal can still prove effective and provide tremendous benefits for those with less pigment in their hair. While the laser may not completely remove all unwanted body hair, the procedure can still drastically reduce the amount of hair in your problem areas.
Preparing for Your Laser Hair Removal in Miami
Consider these steps before your appointment for the most effective laser hair treatment:
Avoid sun exposure for two weeks
Shave the day before treatment or the day of your treatment
Avoid exfoliating cleanser, sugar scrubs, and bleaching creams for at least three days
Do not remove hair by waxing, tweezing, or using depilatory creams for at least four weeks before your appointment
During Your Laser Hair Removal Appointment in Miami
Before the treatment begins, our laser hair removal specialist will clean the skin where the treatment will be administered and apply a numbing gel to the area. Our laser will then send gentle pulses of light to your skin. We will always give you protective eyewear to put on during the treatment to protect your eyes from the laser.
The procedure typically takes one hour, but this depends on the size of the area being treated. Smaller areas can take just a few minutes to treat, whereas larger areas (such as the chest or legs) can take longer.
During the procedure, you are likely to feel a sensation similar to a snap of a rubber band. Most clinicians apply a numbing cream before the procedure which can relieve the discomfort.
After Your Laser Hair Removal Appointment
Specific experiences may vary, it is generally suggested to look for maximum results after six to ten treatments every five to six weeks. This gives the skin adequate time to heal between treatments. To promote healing after your laser hair removal appointment:
Avoid waxing, tweezing, or depilatory creams
Avoid high heat like hot tubs or saunas for 72 hours
Refrain from using sugar scrubs, exfoliating cleansers, and retinoids for up to three days
Ensure your skin is free from irritation when going into treatment. Irritation can react negatively to lasers.
Ensure natural hair growth is uninterrupted by any outside factors. This way, the laser can find and destroy any hair that has started to grow inside the follicle.
Because the follicle itself remains intact, you might need repeated treatments at some point down the road, but having smooth skin without worrying about razor burn or expensive depilatory creams makes this treatment worthwhile.

We will be able to determine how many treatments you will need and provide you with a cost estimate based on the body hair you are looking to remove and your aesthetic goals.

Our hair removal treatments can be applied anywhere throughout the body. Common areas for hair removal treatments include legs, arms, bikini area, shoulders, back, neck, chest, upper lip, and chin.
What is involved in laser hair removal in Miami?
Laser hair removal is a procedure that effectively removes hair from your body. Laser hair removal uses controlled blasts of highly concentrated light (lasers) to surround hair follicles. These follicles are small cavities within your skin where your hair grows. The pigment in hair follicles absorbs the light from the lasers, which then destroys the hair within the follicle. After a certain number of treatments, hair is not able to grow back, leaving the area with smooth, rejuvenated skin.
Before laser hair removal treatment begins, our laser hair removal specialist will clean the skin where the treatment will be administered and apply a numbing gel to the area. Our high-energy laser will then send gentle pulses of light to your skin.
The procedure typically takes 1 hour but will depend on the size of the area being treated. Typically smaller areas take just a few minutes to treat, whereas larger areas (such as the chest or legs) can take longer.
Are the results of laser hair treatments in Miami permanent?
Yes, you will experience permanent results from our laser hair removal treatment in Miami! Because laser hair treatments destroy the hair follicle itself, the result of our laser hair removal is permanent hair reduction. Laser treatments work on a wide range of hair types and body hair. This means you can save time and money while doing away with waxes, razors, and other temporary fixes for hair removal.
It is important to note that hair follicles must be destroyed and not just damaged in order to experience the full extent of laser hair removal results. Because of this, it is important to have an adequate number of laser hair removal work completed to ensure the hair will not grow back. We recommend you reach out and schedule a private consultation with one of our medical professionals in Miami in order to understand which type of treatment is best for you.
How many sessions will I need to remove my hair?
A laser hair removal treatment session typically takes 60 minutes. This will vary based on the areas being treated.
Does laser hair removal work?
Yes! Studies estimate that adequate laser hair treatment allows individuals to remove 85-90% of the unwanted body hair from armpits to the upper lip to the bikini line.
Laser hair removal works through the process of heating hair follicles with laser energy to damage and ultimately destroy the follicle. With the follicle destroyed, it is no longer able to grow hair, and you are left with smooth skin! At LifeGaines Med Spa, we prioritize customized treatments so that you reach your aesthetic goals, whatever they may be.
Is laser hair removal in Miami safe?
Yes! Our laser treatments use top-of-the-line laser energy technology that keeps your skin safe and targets the hair follicle directly. We always offer protective eyewear during laser hair removal work in Miami and recommend you stay out of the sun directly after the procedure to ensure you heal from your treatment efficiently and effectively.
Side effects are rare and generally include minor swelling. This discomfort, if experienced, generally dissipates a few hours after treatment. These treatments do not require downtime and you will be ready to get back to your day-to-day life as soon as you leave our office.
How long will my appointment for laser hair treatment last?
Your laser hair process will start with a consultation where our trained medical professionals learn more about your goals for laser hair removal treatment. From here, we will schedule your initial appointment at our office in Miami. The amount of time each appointment takes will vary depending on the amount of hair that must be removed, and the size of the area that is receiving laser treatment.
Keep in mind that we recommend between 6-10 sessions to receive the maximum benefits of hair removal. We are happy to advise you on the number of sessions that will work best for your aesthetic goals based on your needs and body details.
