If you’re tired of the endless cycle of shaving, waxing, or tweezing, laser hair removal might just be the smooth solution you’ve been searching for. At The Skin Co. in Fruitland, Idaho, we use the latest InMode Fusion Light and Dark technology to deliver safe, effective results for all skin tones.
Whether you’re considering your first treatment or have questions about how it works, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know before booking.
What Is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal is a non-invasive treatment that targets hair follicles with pulses of light energy. The pigment in the hair absorbs the light, damaging the follicle and reducing future growth. Over a series of treatments, most clients see long-lasting hair reduction—and in many cases, completely smooth, hair-free skin.
What Areas Can Be Treated?
Laser hair removal is highly versatile and can be used on almost any area of the body, including:
- Underarms
- Legs
- Bikini/Brazilian
- Face (chin, upper lip, jawline)
- Back & Chest
- Arms
- Stomach
Treatments are quick, with small areas like the upper lip taking just a few minutes, and larger areas like legs or back completed in under an hour.
How Many Sessions Will I Need?
Hair grows in cycles, so multiple treatments are necessary to effectively target all follicles. Most clients see the best results after 6 to 8 sessions, spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart. Maintenance treatments may be recommended once or twice a year depending on individual hair regrowth.
Does Laser Hair Removal Hurt?
While laser hair removal isn’t completely painless, most clients describe the sensation as a mild snap or flick—similar to a rubber band against the skin. The Fusion system is designed with comfort in mind and includes a built-in cooling mechanism to soothe the skin during treatment.
How to Prepare for Your Appointment
Before your session:
- Shave the treatment area 24 hours in advance.
- Avoid sun exposure and tanning (including self-tanners) for at least 2 weeks.
- Don’t wax, pluck, or use depilatory creams before treatment—hair follicles must be intact.
- Come with clean, product-free skin.
After treatment, it’s normal to experience mild redness or warmth. Applying aloe or a soothing cream and avoiding sun exposure will help your skin heal quickly.
