Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal is a safe, effective way to permanently reduce unwanted hair on the face and body. At Zaleta Med Spa, we use advanced laser technology to target hair at the follicle, providing long-lasting results with minimal discomfort and no downtime.
Benefits of Laser Hair Removal
What to Expect
Treatments are quick and virtually painless, often described as a slight snapping sensation. Most clients need 6–8 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart for optimal results. Our providers customize each session based on your skin tone, hair type, and goals.
How Do I Prepare for Laser Hair Removal?
There isn’t a lot that you need to do; we aim to handle most of the work for our patients. However, there are a few things you have to do prior to your appointment:
-Avoid Sun Exposure
Stay out of the sun and avoid tanning (including tanning beds and self-tanners) for at least 2 weeks before your treatment.
-Shave the Area
Shave the treatment area 24 hours before your appointment. Do not wax, pluck, or use hair removal creams — the root needs to be intact for the laser to work.
-Clean Skin Only
Come to your appointment with clean, dry skin — no makeup, lotion, deodorant, or oils on the treatment area.
-Pause Certain Products
Discontinue use of retinoids, AHAs, BHAs, and other exfoliating products on the treatment area 3–5 days before your session.
-Let Us Know About Medications
Inform your provider about any medications you’re taking, especially antibiotics or photosensitizing drugs.
-Wear Comfortable Clothing
Choose loose-fitting clothes that won’t irritate the treated area afterward.
-Be Consistent
Plan to commit to multiple sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart for best results.
