How Laser Hair Removal Works
Laser hair removal uses pulses of light to target hair follicles beneath the skin. The energy gently heats and disables each follicle, reducing future growth while leaving the surrounding skin unharmed.
Because hair grows in cycles, multiple sessions are needed to treat each follicle in its active phase. After just a few visits, most clients see visibly smoother skin and finer, slower regrowth until hair growth nearly stops altogether.
The Neo Elite Advantage
At Luminescence Aesthetics, we’re proud to use the Neo Elite by Aerolase—one of the most advanced laser systems available today. This technology delivers 650-microsecond pulses that reach the hair follicle faster than the skin can heat up, creating a pain-free experience without gels, numbing cream, or cooling devices.
Why clients love Neo Elite:
- Safe for all skin tones, from light to deep complexions
- No messy prep or recovery time—just quick, clean sessions
- Precision-focused energy that targets follicles while protecting skin
- Minimal irritation or redness, so you can continue your day immediately
Whether you’re prepping for a night out in the Theater District or a walk along Canalside, the Neo Elite laser delivers smooth results that fit your lifestyle.

What to Expect Before, During, and After Treatment
Before Your Session
A licensed Luminescence provider will review your skin and hair type to personalize your treatment plan. Avoid waxing, plucking, and tanning products for at least a week before your appointment.
Pro Tip: Shave 24–48 hours before your session. Leaving a light stubble allows the laser to better locate and treat each follicle.
During the Procedure
You’ll wear protective eyewear as the laser moves over your skin, delivering quick, gentle pulses. Most clients describe it as a mild warmth or soft snap—much more comfortable than waxing. Smaller areas take minutes, while larger zones like legs or back may take up to an hour.
After Your Appointment
You can go right back to your day. Mild redness or sensitivity may occur briefly but fades quickly. For best results:
- Avoid direct sunlight for several days
- Use SPF 30+ on treated areas
- Skip exfoliating or active products for 48 hours
With each treatment, you’ll notice smoother, thinner regrowth until it’s barely noticeable.
How Many Sessions Will You Need?
Most people achieve optimal results in 6–9 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. The number depends on your hair’s thickness, color, and growth cycle. Once complete, you’ll enjoy lasting smoothness and minimal maintenance.
Is Laser Hair Removal Right for You?
Because the Neo Elite is safe for all skin tones and hair types, nearly anyone can benefit. You may be an excellent candidate if you:
- Experience irritation or ingrown hairs from shaving or waxing
- Want long-lasting smoothness without constant upkeep
- Have sensitive skin that reacts to other methods
- Prefer a quick, gentle, and professional solution
For Downtown Buffalo professionals and residents alike, laser hair removal offers a time-saving, confidence-boosting way to look and feel your best.

FAQs About Laser Hair Removal
Does laser hair removal hurt?
Not with the Neo Elite laser. You’ll feel gentle warmth or a light snap—no numbing, cooling devices, or messy gels needed.
How long does a treatment take?
Smaller zones, like the upper lip or underarms, take minutes; larger areas, such as the legs or back, can take up to an hour.
Is laser hair removal permanent?
Laser hair removal offers long-term reduction. Most clients experience up to 80–90% permanent reduction after completing their treatment plan.
Can I shave between treatments?
Yes. Shaving is safe and encouraged between sessions. Just skip waxing or plucking and avoid shaving within 24–48 hours before your next treatment so there’s slight stubble for the laser to target.
Is there any downtime?
None. You can return to work, errands, or social plans right away—any redness or warmth fades within hours.
