How Laser Hair Removal Works
Laser hair removal targets the source of unwanted hair—your follicles. The Neo Elite laser emits short, high-energy pulses of light that gently heat each follicle, disrupting future growth while keeping your surrounding skin cool and protected.
Because hair grows in cycles, multiple sessions are needed to capture each follicle in its active phase. Most clients see noticeable reduction after just a few visits, with smoother, finer regrowth until the hair stops producing altogether.
Why We Use the Neo Elite Laser
At Luminescence Aesthetics MedSpa, we’ve chosen the Neo Elite by Aerolase for a reason—it’s one of the most advanced and comfortable laser systems available today.
This technology uses 650-microsecond pulses, meaning the laser energy reaches the follicle so quickly that heat never has time to build up on the surface of your skin. The result? A pain-free, no-downtime treatment that’s safe and effective for every skin tone.
Other key advantages include:
- No gels, numbing, or cooling devices required — just quick, clean sessions.
- Safe for all skin tones, including deeper complexions.
- Precision targeting that protects your skin while disabling the follicle.
- Minimal redness or irritation so you can get back to your day right away.
It’s a treatment that combines medical precision with total comfort, giving our clients the best of both worlds—real results and a relaxing experience.
Areas We Treat
Laser hair removal with Neo Elite can safely target unwanted hair almost anywhere on the body — from small touch-ups to full-body transformations. Whether you’re tired of shaving your underarms or want baby-smooth legs year-round, we offer customizable treatment plans for virtually every body area:
Small Areas
Cheeks • Sideburns • Chin • Upper lip
Medium Areas
Underarms • Half arms • Bikini line • Neck
Large Areas
Abdomen • Full arms • Brazilian • Chest • Face • Half legs
Extra-Large Areas
Back • Full legs
Your provider will tailor a plan based on your skin tone, hair type, and the size of the area to be treated—ensuring efficient, consistent results across every visit.
What to Expect Before, During, and After Treatment
Before Your Session
A licensed medical provider will evaluate your skin and hair type, discuss your goals, and outline a personalized treatment schedule. You’ll be advised to avoid sun exposure and tanning products for a week before your appointment, as well as any waxing or plucking that removes the hair root.
Pro Tip: Shave 24–48 hours before your appointment. Leaving a hint of stubble helps the laser identify the follicles for optimal precision.
During the Procedure
You’ll wear protective eyewear while the laser pulses over the treatment area. Most clients feel only a mild warmth or light snap against the skin—far more comfortable than waxing or traditional laser devices.
Small areas like the upper lip take just a few minutes; larger areas such as the legs or back may take up to an hour.
After Your Appointment
You can return to normal activities right away. Temporary redness or slight swelling is normal and usually fades within a few hours. For the best results:
- Avoid direct sun exposure for several days.
- Apply sunscreen daily to protect the treated area.
- Hold off on exfoliating products or active ingredients (like retinol or glycolic acid) for 48 hours.
With each session, you’ll notice thinner, lighter regrowth until most follicles stop producing hair altogether.
How Many Sessions Will I Need?
Most patients require 6 to 8 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart to achieve full results. The exact number depends on your hair growth cycle, thickness, and the treatment area. Once your series is complete, you can expect long-lasting smoothness—with only occasional maintenance sessions if needed.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Laser Hair Removal?
Because Neo Elite is suitable for all skin types and tones, most people make excellent candidates. You may benefit most if you:
- Experience irritation or ingrown hairs from shaving or waxing
- Want to reduce hair growth permanently rather than temporarily
- Prefer a low-maintenance, time-saving solution
- Have sensitive skin and want a gentler treatment option
Residents throughout North Buffalo appreciate the convenience of having advanced, medical-grade laser technology available close to home—no long drives across town required.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does laser hair removal hurt?
Not with the Neo Elite system. Treatments feel more like a gentle warmth or light snap on the skin—no numbing, cooling devices, or messy gels needed. Most clients find it surprisingly comfortable, even in sensitive areas.
How long does a laser hair removal session take?
It depends on the treatment area. Smaller zones, like the upper lip or underarms, take just a few minutes. Larger areas, such as the back or full legs, may take up to an hour—but every session is efficient and precise.
Is laser hair removal permanent?
Laser hair removal offers long-term reduction rather than instant removal. Most clients see up to 80–90% permanent reduction after completing their full treatment series. Any regrowth that does appear is typically finer and lighter.
Can I shave between treatments?
Absolutely. Shaving between sessions is perfectly fine—and even encouraged—to keep hair follicles intact for the laser to target. Just skip waxing, tweezing, or depilatory creams since they remove the follicle completely. For the best results, avoid shaving 24–48 hours before your next appointment so there’s a light stubble for the laser to recognize and treat effectively.
Is there any downtime?
None at all. You can return to work, errands, or the gym immediately after your session. Some clients experience mild redness or warmth in the treated area, but it typically fades within a few hours.
