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.
