How Laser Hair Removal Works

Laser hair removal uses concentrated light energy to target the pigment (melanin) in hair follicles. The light converts to heat, damaging the follicle so it can no longer grow hair as effectively. Over a series of treatments, hair becomes finer, lighter, and less dense, with many follicles stopping growth altogether.

Because lasers target pigment, your consultation is essential to provide safe, personalized settings for your skin and hair type.

  • Face (upper lip, chin, jawline, sideburns)

What to Expect During Laser Hair Removal at InMySkin

Laser hair removal is a safe, effective, and convenient way to achieve smooth, low-maintenance skin, but understanding what will happen before, during, and after your session helps you feel confident and prepared. 

At InMySkin, our experienced providers guide you through every step, with treatments customized to your skin and hair type, comfortable, and designed for long-lasting results.

Proper preparation helps maximize results and make sure that your session goes smoothly. Here’s what to do before your appointment:

  • Shave the area 24 hours before your appointment
  • Avoid waxing, tweezing, or threading for at least 4–6 weeks
  • No tanning or direct sun exposure for 2–4 weeks
  • Remove lotions, deodorant, makeup, or self-tanner before your session

Knowing what to expect during your laser hair removal session helps ease any concerns. During treatment, our providers:

  • Will provide protective eyewear
  • Use a cooling tip or gel to promote comfort and skin safety
  • Deliver precise laser pulses, each producing a quick snap or warm sensation

Following proper post-care instructions supports your skin’s recovery and long-lasting results. After your session:

  • You can expect mild redness or swelling to be common and to fade within hours
  • Avoid hot showers, saunas, and strenuous workouts for 24–48 hours
  • Apply sunscreen daily to protect treated areas
  • Expect hairs to shed naturally over 1–3 weeks, and avoid tweezing or waxing during this time

Because hair grows in cycles, multiple treatments are needed to catch follicles in their active growth phase:

  • Face: Every 4–6 weeks
  • Body: Every 6–8 weeks
  • Typical course: 6–8 sessions
