What Is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser treatments are one of the most commonly done procedures in the U.S. as more men and women are trying them out. Medical lasers have such a wide variety of uses, ranging from tackling body hair to improving the appearance of skin. Laser hair removal uses this advanced system to permanently eliminate unwanted hair, wherever it might be. It’s a simple treatment that destroys hair follicles, thus saving you from a lifetime of shaving and wax. These traditional methods only pause the issue, with waxed or shaved hair always returning sooner or later. But laser hair removal goes to the literal source of body hair, delivering lasting results and an aesthetic you will love.
Laser hair removal works over a series of quick treatment sessions, gradually reducing hair in your treatment areas. With as few as three sessions, you say goodbye to the tyranny of body hair for good and enjoy smoother, vibrant skin.
What Body Parts Can Have Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal treatments can be carried out on different target areas of the body. If there is hair there that you do not want, the odds are this treatment will be able to remove it. Treatable body areas include:
- Underarms
- Back
- Bikini area
- Chest
- Face, especially the upper lip and chin
- Legs
- Neck
- Shoulders
The Benefits of Laser Hair Removal
There are many advantages of laser hair treatment, especially when compared to traditional methods. Some of the greatest advantages it can give you include:
Laser treatments are safe because the lasers are designed to target specific areas of the body to destroy hair follicles while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged. In other words, the hair follicles are destroyed, and the rest of your skin stays untouched.
A laser is able to treat an area approximately the size of a quarter every second. Small areas like the upper lips take less than a minute, while large areas require about 45 minutes, depending on the treatment. This means you can drop by to undergo the treatment and resume your daily activities without any interruption to your life.
Laser treatments for hair removal deliver consistent results every time, which is permanent hair loss. Most patients experience permanent hair loss after an average of 3-7 sessions. Say goodbye to regular waxing. No need to spend time shaving. Instead, you are freed to enjoy lasting results and spend your time doing the things you love.
Laser treatment is a safe procedure that poses no serious risk to patients as the side effects (like redness and swelling) disappear after a few days. You can undergo the treatment without any fears of complications when working with one of our experienced specialists.
Brightcraft’s practice is located near Target at the crossing of N Hollywood Way and Chandler Blvd, providing quality laser hair removal near me in Burbank.
How Many Sessions Of Laser Hair Removal Do You Need?
Like most people, you probably find it hard to bare your skin when it is covered in hair you wish you could get rid of. Unwanted hair can be frustrating as it affects your confidence during spring and summer when you would love to feel the warmth of sunlight on your skin. Shaving might seem like a great solution, but constantly buying new razors and shaving cream adds up quickly. If you are not looking to spend all that money (and time) on shaving, laser hair removal sessions are the effective solution to try.
Laser hair removal is best done in sessions, but the number of sessions required for best results varies. Below are some of the factors
-
Body type: We all have different amounts of hair, and hair growth occurs at a different rate. For most people, their body type requires about 4 sessions, while others may require up to 6 sessions. It is rare for patients to need up to 8 sessions to get the desired results.
-
Areas to be treated: Another factor determining the ideal number of sessions needed for optimal results is the treatment of the target areas. Commonly treated areas include legs. Underarms, areas of the face, bikini line, and Brazilian area. The larger the areas you want to be treated, the more likely you will need more than 4 treatment sessions.
-
Desired results: Like many other procedures, all patients do not have the same goal. While some want to reduce the amount of hair in certain areas of their body, others want to eliminate hairs from their body completely. For example, some men prefer to retain some facial hair, so they typically have the amount of hair reduced so they can shave their beards easily. The advantage of partial elimination is that there are fewer incidents of razor burn.
-
Hair growth cycles: Hair follicles are at different stages of growth, making it impossible to get rid of them all at once. While some hair strands fall out, others are robustly in their prime. Hair removal sessions are effective for hair follicles that are active and visible above the skin’s surface. After the first session, you might have to wait for some time for new hair strands to emerge so they can be eliminated.
Do Laser Remove Hair Permanently?
Laser hair removal is often praised as a ‘permanent’ way of removing unwanted hair, but that is not entirely true. Laser hair removal puts the hair follicles in a state of dormancy for a long time. One of its biggest attractions is keeping the skin completely free of hair for much longer than shaving and waxing. Depending on various factors, laser hair removal can last for months or even years.
After you complete the recommended number of sessions, your treated skin will remain free for a long time, but since it’s not permanent hair loss, regrowth will occur, but the hairs will be lighter, finer, and fewer. In effect, this means that laser permanently reduces hair. In other words, it damages hair growth but doesn’t destroy them.
If you’re looking to prevent regrowth, it’s crucial to have a yearly touch-up session as recommended by your dermatologist. Also, keep in mind that hair growth may still occur in other areas of your body not targeted after undergoing the treatments.
Tips to make laser hair removal last longer
If you’re looking to get more out of the treatment, here are a few things you can do to make the removal last for as long as possible:
- Choose a qualified dermatologist with years of experience in providing laser hair removal treatments
- Don’t wax for at least 4-6 weeks before your appointment
- Protect your skin by avoiding the sun for at least 4-6 weeks
- Shave a day before the treatment to remove hair above the skin but leave the shaft intact
Is Laser Hair Removal Right for Me?
For many patients, choosing to start laser hair removal ends up being one of the best decisions they can make. Traditional hair removal methods can even put your body at risk. Ingrown hairs, infections, and more can all occur because of waxing or shaving. But laser hair removal is different, freeing you from unwanted body hair without putting your well being at risk. The treatment is also open to a wide range of patients, with almost any skin or hair type being suitable for the treatment.

I got my first ever injections at BrightCraft. My nurse Lilit went over all the questions and explained how the product works and what to expect. Definitely will come back here. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Best clinic with highly qualified and friendly staff. Definitely recommend this clinic.
This is the best Med Spa and the best customer service around! I really appreciate the time they take with you, they are very thorough and personable. The doctor and staff are truly caring and accommodating. Great experience overall! Thank you Doctor and Elen!
First time trying laser hair removal, and been really satisfied with the experience and the results! The place is clean, the people are great, and reasonably priced. I've been coming back, and no reason not to. Recommended.
Elen is so nice and welcoming. She made my entire visit feel very comfortable and familiar. I received a HydraFacial treatment from Ruzanna, who was very helpful and kind. She walked me through each step of the process before she did it and answered any questions that I had. I'm happy with my results so far and would definitely book here again.
The friendliest staff and the cleanest most modern facility ever! I’ve been to numerous med spas and doctors offices in Glendale, Burbank, the valley and even the west side, but BrightCraft aesthetics is now my go-to! Their facial is beyond personalized and they also offer skin care products for you to continue effective skin care at home. I love this! Laser hair removal services are also amazing, and I’ve gotten great results in a fraction of the time, compared to other med spas. I can't wait to try the rest of their services soon. They also have plenty of parking and a very nice accessible location for easy in and out. I can’t wait to try to rest of the services they have to offer!
I’m so happy I found this spa early this summer because my skin has completely transformed!!! I can not stop getting comments on my skin from my family & friends and even strangers! Debbie and the team is amazing and can’t stop recommending Brightcraft to everyone!
Amazing staff and experience. Looking forward to my next visit. Very nice.
I recently got my full skincare regiment and it is amazing! Elen was very specific and gave me great instructions on how to use the ZO Skin Health product. I’ve been using it for two weeks now and already see changes in my skin. If you ever need detailed instructions, ask for Elen. ❤️
Got hair laser done here and will be returning soon. Wonderful staff, immaculate clean and great procedure prices!! God bless them.
This place has become my go to one since they opened. Im always pleased by their great customer service and the organization they have. Elen, the receptionist always finds a time to give an appointment when I am in a rush and a true kind soul. Ruzannna on the other hand does my laser and I cannot say enough how nice and patient she is.
Hands down the best medspa I have ever walked in to! The staff is super friendly and kind and they helped me with everything I need. Very accommodating. The spa is very clean and well kept! I went in for a few laser treatments and the results I’m seeing are amazing. I highly recommend stopping by there if you’re interested in any type of medspa treatments and procedures. They also have amazing specials throughout the year so make sure to check on that as well!
I recently had a fantastic experience at BrightCraft Aesthetics for microneedling. The staff was incredibly professional, and the treatment itself was rejuvenating. My skin feels noticeably smoother and more vibrant. Highly recommend this medspa for anyone considering microneedling!
Great Experience!! I came in and tried the hydrofacials which helped with my acne/inflammation and helped create a new skincare routine. I highly recommend!
I came for a skincare consultation and I was suggested to get micro-needling. I was a bit worried at first since I have a very sensitive skin, but trust me the results are so worth it.
Very clean office and friendly staff members. I was a dental patient here and decided to give the medapa a try. I just got my third micro needling session and i love the results!
The best service!!!! Everyone is so wonderful and my laser hair removal experience has been perfect! Can’t say enough good things!
Very beautiful and clean place. Everyone is great and every staff is amazing, including all the doctors. I went through a lot of procedures throughout time and they were all amazing. Love this place and I absolutely recommend it.
