Laser hair removal is a cosmetic procedure that uses a concentrated beam of light (laser) to remove unwanted hair. The light is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair, which converts the light energy into heat. This heat damages the hair follicle, inhibiting or delaying future hair growth. It is a safe and effective treatment that provides long-term reduction of unwanted body hair.
Laser hair removal uses a handheld laser device to direct light at a specific area of the skin. The special kind of light emitted from the laser is absorbed into the pigment of the hair, which heats up to the point that it kills or damages the surrounding follicle. When the follicle is damaged, it either dies and the hair is gone forever, or it can be damaged so that the hair that grows back is finer and softer than before.
You’ll come into our office for a laser hair removal treatment every 6 to 8 weeks, which generally lasts 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the area we’re treating. In total, you’ll need between eight and 12 treatments to achieve the hairless, smooth look you’re craving – and the convenience of not worrying about excess body hair ever again!
Laser hair removal is highly versatile and can be used on almost any part of the body where you have unwanted hair. Whether you want to clear a small, targeted spot or a large area, we can help.
The most obvious benefit of laser hair removal is the gift of time. Imagine never having to add "shave legs" to your morning routine again! This treatment offers a permanent reduction in hair growth, keeping your skin smoother for much longer than any razor or wax could.
Beyond convenience, laser hair removal is the ultimate cure for ingrown hairs and painful razor bumps. Because the laser targets the hair at the root, it prevents the hair from curling back into the skin and causing irritation. This results in much clearer, softer skin texture over time. It is a safe, effective investment that helps you feel confident and ready for anything.
For laser hair removal to be effective, the hair should be dark, as the laser's light targets melanin in the hair. The more melanin in the hair, the more likely it is that you’ll see faster and better results from laser hair removal. People with blonde hair are usually not good candidates for laser hair removal.
We also consider your skin type to ensure the highest level of safety. During your consultation, we will review your medical history and any medications you are taking that might make your skin sensitive to light. Our goal is to ensure you receive the most effective treatment possible while keeping your skin healthy and glowing.
Recovery from laser hair removal is nearly instant. Your skin might look a little pink or feel like a mild sunburn for a few hours after the session, but this typically fades very quickly. The most important rule of recovery is to stay out of the sun! You should avoid direct sun exposure and tanning beds on the treated area for at least two weeks before and after your appointment.
We also recommend avoiding hot tubs, saunas, and strenuous exercise for the first 24 hours to prevent follicle irritation. Between your sessions, you should not wax or pluck the hair, as the laser needs the hair root to be present to work. You are, however, welcome to shave as much as you like!
You will begin to see a difference after your very first visit. About a week or two after your treatment, you will notice the treated hairs begin to shed. As you continue through your series of appointments, the hair that grows back will be significantly thinner, lighter, and grow much more slowly.
By the time you finish your recommended 8 to 12 sessions, most patients see an 80% to 90% reduction in hair growth. Any hair that does remain is usually so fine that it is barely noticeable. These results are long-lasting and often life-changing for those who have struggled with thick or dark hair for years. You can finally enjoy the freedom of always being ready to go.

Led by Dr. Asaf Yalif, our team is highly trained in laser safety and skin health, ensuring you get the best results without compromising your skin. We have been a trusted part of the Roswell community since 2005, and we are dedicated to helping you feel Ageless every day.
Laser hair removal permanently removes hair. Once a follicle is dead, it cannot regrow. However, some hair follicles are tougher than others. Some hair follicles may remain, even after 12 treatments, but you will see a dramatic difference in the speed at which the hair from that follicle grows. It should also be tremendously finer and softer, too.
Many of our patients who have their legs lasered find that they shave much less often than before treatment, and only need to “touch up” here and there in the shower on occasion. A patient who says they used to hate shaving now breezes through it with ease, as it takes less time and is less painful than before.
The price of laser hair removal depends on how many treatments you’ll need and how much surface area you’d like to have treated. Come in and see us for a consultation, and we can tell you an exact price!
Most people find the treatment very tolerable. It is often described as a quick snap of a rubber band against the skin. We use cooling technology to keep your skin surface comfortable throughout the process. Compared to the recurring pain of waxing, laser hair removal is a much more comfortable long-term solution.
It is safest to perform laser hair removal on your natural skin tone. If you have a recent tan, whether from the sun or a bottle, we recommend waiting until it fades. This ensures the laser can accurately target the pigment in your hair rather than the pigment in your skin, keeping you safe from potential irritation.
The most important step is to arrive with a clean shave! Please shave the area you want treated about 12 to 24 hours before your visit. This allows the laser energy to travel straight down to the follicle rather than being absorbed by the hair above the skin. Please also avoid applying lotions or deodorants to the area on the day of your treatment.
