Does laser hair removal really work?
Yes, it really does! While there are plenty of ways to temporarily get rid of hair, laser hair removal (not IPL!) is the most reliable and safest option for long-lasting, even permanent results. It works by targeting the hair follicle to reduce future growth. With Cervello technology, it’s safe for most skin types—and most people see up to 70–90% hair reduction after completing their sessions. Any regrowth is usually finer, lighter, and much less noticeable.
-
What body hair can I have removed with a laser?
Laser hair removal can be done almost anywhere you have unwanted hair! Popular treatment areas include:
Face (upper lip, chin, cheeks)
Underarms
Arms and legs
Bikini line or full Brazilian
Back and chest
Stomach
Hands, fingers, feet, and toes
If the area has pigmented hair (not white, gray, or very light blonde), it’s likely treatable. Not sure if your area can be treated? We’re happy to chat and help you find the right plan!
-
How long does a treatment take?
Treatment times vary depending on the area, but most sessions take anywhere from 10 minutes for small areas (like the upper lip) to about an hour for larger areas (like legs or back). During your consultation, we’ll give you a clear idea of how long your sessions will be.
-
What does laser body hair removal feel like?
Most people describe the sensation as a quick, gentle snap—kind of like a tiny rubber band flicking your skin. Thanks to advanced Cervello technology and our expert care, treatments are generally comfortable with minimal discomfort. Some areas may feel a bit more sensitive than others, but any irritation usually fades quickly.
-
How should I prepare for laser hair removal?
To get the best results, it’s important to prepare your skin before treatment:
Avoid sun exposure and tanning for at least 2 weeks before your session.
Shave the treatment area 24–48 hours before your appointment—don’t wax, pluck, or bleach.
Avoid using lotions, deodorants, or makeup on the day of your treatment.
Let us know about any medications or skin conditions you have during your consultation.
Following these steps helps ensure a safe, effective, and comfortable treatment!
-
How much does laser hair removal cost?
The price depends on the area you want treated and how many sessions you need. Smaller areas like the upper lip usually cost less, while larger areas like legs or back cost more.
Here’s something to consider: the average person who shaves legs and underarms spends over $10,000 in razors, shaving creams, exfoliants, and more over their lifetime. And those are just temporary fixes. Laser hair removal offers a more permanent solution, helping you save money and time in the long run.
At Sweet Lily, we offer affordable payment plans, so you can find an option that fits your budget comfortably.
-
Is laser hair removal with Cervello effective for PCOS?
Yes! Many people with PCOS experience unwanted hair growth due to hormonal changes, and laser hair removal with Cervello technology can be a great option to manage this. Cervello’s advanced system is designed to safely and effectively reduce hair growth on a variety of skin types and hair colors, including the coarse, stubborn hair that’s common with PCOS.
While results can vary, many clients with PCOS see significant, long-lasting hair reduction, making their daily hair management easier. We recommend scheduling a consultation to create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs.
