How Laser Hair Removal Works
Laser hair removal targets unwanted hair at its source: the follicle. During treatment, pulses of laser energy heat and disable each follicle, preventing future growth while leaving the surrounding skin unharmed.
Because hair grows in cycles, multiple sessions are required to catch every follicle in its active stage. After just a few visits, most clients notice less regrowth and finer, lighter hair until smoothness becomes the new normal.
The Neo Elite Difference
At Luminescence, we’ve chosen the Neo Elite by Aerolase for its unmatched combination of safety, speed, and comfort. Its 650-microsecond pulses deliver energy so rapidly that the surface of your skin never overheats—creating a pain-free experience with no need for cooling gels, numbing cream, or downtime.
Why patients love Neo Elite:
- Safe for every skin tone, even deeper complexions
- Quick and comfortable, with no messy gels or pre-treatment prep
- Precision targeting that protects your skin while disabling follicles
- Minimal redness or irritation, so you can go about your day right away
This device blends medical precision with spa-level comfort, providing real results for smooth, healthy-looking skin.

What to Expect Before, During, and After Treatment
Before Your Session
Your licensed provider will evaluate your skin and hair type, discuss your goals, and create a personalized treatment schedule. Avoid tanning products and excessive sun exposure for a week before your appointment, and skip waxing or plucking.
Pro Tip: Shave 24–48 hours before your session so there’s a faint stubble—just enough for the laser to locate the follicles.
During the Procedure
You’ll wear protective eyewear while the laser gently pulses across your skin. Most clients describe it as a light warmth or soft snapping sensation—far more comfortable than waxing or older laser devices. Smaller areas take only minutes; larger areas such as the legs or back may take up to an hour.
After Your Appointment
You can return to normal activities immediately. Mild redness or swelling may appear briefly, but it usually fades within hours. For optimal results:
- Avoid direct sun exposure for several days
- Apply SPF 30+ daily to protect treated areas
- Skip exfoliating products and active ingredients (like retinol) for 48 hours
With each session, you’ll notice less regrowth until most follicles stop producing hair altogether.
How Many Sessions Does It Take?
Most clients need 6–9 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart to achieve their desired level of smoothness. Results depend on hair color, thickness, and area treated, but once your series is complete, you can expect long-lasting results—with only occasional maintenance if needed.
Is Laser Hair Removal Right for You?
Because the Neo Elite is safe for all skin types, nearly anyone wanting to reduce hair growth can benefit. You may be an ideal candidate if you:
- Experience irritation or ingrown hairs from shaving or waxing
- Want a low-maintenance, long-term solution
- Prefer a gentler, non-invasive option for sensitive skin
- Are ready to invest in smoother, healthier-looking skin

Frequently Asked Questions
Does laser hair removal hurt?
Not with the Neo Elite system. It feels like gentle warmth or a light snap on the skin—no numbing, cooling devices, or gels required.
How long does a session take?
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.
Is laser hair removal permanent?
It provides long-term reduction rather than instant removal. Most clients see up to 80–90 percent permanent reduction after completing their series.
Can I shave between treatments?
Absolutely. Shaving between sessions keeps follicles intact for the laser to target. Just avoid waxing, tweezing, or depilatory creams, and don’t shave within 24–48 hours of your next session so the laser has slight stubble to work with.
Is there any downtime?
None at all. You can return to normal activities right away; any redness or warmth fades within hours.
