Say goodbye to the hassle of hair removal and hello to smooth, beautiful skin!
In this blog post, we'll explore the ins and outs of ditching your razor for good with the help of advanced laser treatment.
How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?
Laser hair removal is a popular, non-invasive cosmetic procedure that eliminates unwanted hair from various parts of the body.
A concentrated laser beam targets the pigment in the hair follicles with a laser beam. The light energy from the laser is absorbed by the pigment, which damages and destroys the hair follicle and inhibits hair growth.
Our laser hair removal therapist, Sonia, uses Triton by Inmode, the FIRST and ONLY FDA-cleared device to fire multiple wavelengths simultaneously! This unique technology allows us to treat deep as well as newly emerging hairs, giving our clients greater results in fewer sessions!
Many clients notice a 20-30% decrease in hair after just one session!

How Does the Procedure Work?
At the beginning of your appointment, you will have a comprehensive consultation with our laser hair removal specialist, Sonia.
Feel free to ask questions – this is a judgment-free zone! Sonia will create a personalized treatment plan for you. And at The Beauty Block, we value your privacy. Your treatment information stays confidential with us.
Preparation
To get ready for your laser treatment, here are a few things to keep in mind:
Avoid tanning beds and prolonged sun exposure for at least two weeks before your appointment.
Do not wax, pluck, or tweeze the area being treated for at least four weeks before your appointment.
Shave the area being treated 24 hours before your appointment.
Do not apply lotions, makeup, or deodorant on areas being treated before your appointment.
During the Procedure
You will be given protective glasses to shield your eyes from the laser beam during the laser treatment. Sonia will use a hand-held laser hair removal device to target the areas being treated with short pulses of light energy.
The Triton by Inmode laser hair removal machine is designed with cooling technology and is virtually painless! Most clients rate it as a 2-4 out of 10 in discomfort. You may feel a slight sensation like a rubber band snapping against the skin.
Post-Procedure Care
After your session, it's normal to have redness and bumps in the treated area, lasting up to 2 hours or longer. The treated area may feel like a sunburn for a few hours. If sensitivity continues, apply a cold compress.
Here are five post-procedure care steps to remember:
Avoid sun exposure
Avoid saunas and hot tubs
Avoid tanning lotions
Avoid lotions with perfumes and fragrances for 48 hours
Apply aloe vera if irritation continues

FAQs About Laser Hair Removal
How many sessions do I need?
The number of sessions required depends on factors such as hair type, skin color, and the treatment area, with most clients needing only 4–6 sessions.
What are the bumps after laser treatment?
After laser hair removal, it’s common to experience follicular edema, which is the swelling of the hair follicles. Typically, this reaction diminishes within 30 minutes. However, in some cases, this may lead to itchiness and sensitivity. For such situations, consider applying Aloe Vera to soothe the area.
How long does laser hair removal last?
Laser hair removal offers long-lasting results, with most clients experiencing permanent hair reduction after completing the recommended number of sessions. It is important to note that some hair may still grow back due to hormonal changes or other factors, but it will be significantly less and easier to manage than before the laser treatments. Touch-up sessions will be able to take care of it.
How much is laser hair removal?
The cost varies depending on the area being treated and the number of sessions needed. We offer competitive pricing at The Beauty Block, and we also have promotions and discounts available.
