Over the course of their lives, women spend a total of 72 days shaving their legs. For men, the total days shaving is 45.

Laser hair removal is a safe and effective laser procedure that removes unwanted hair from almost any part of the body. According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, laser hair removal was the third highest non-surgical aesthetic procedure performed in the U.S. in 2016, with more than a million people undergoing pulsed light and laser hair removal treatments annually.
Laser hair removal at Ethos Spa works for all skin types and tones, from light to dark, and for both men and women. It reduces hair growth on all parts of the body including the face, legs, arms, underarms, and back. We also cover sensitive treatment areas such as the bikini line, nipples, and chest.
During treatment, a hand-held laser device is passed over the skin of the treatment area. The device focuses controlled laser light into each individual hair follicle. The light is absorbed by the pigment in the hair, which heats up the hair follicle and causes damage that hinders or delays regrowth.
Since it’s the dark pigment of the hair that absorbs the light, laser hair removal is safe for the surrounding skin of the treatment area.

Every client is different, and so the number of treatments needed will vary. However, it’s important to understand that hair grows in three stages: anagen, telogen, and catagen. For laser hair removal to be most effective, it needs to be applied during the early part of the anagen stage, when the hair is actively growing. As a result, multiple sessions will be needed in order to guarantee treatment occurs during that stage of growth. Sessions are spaced about a month apart to accommodate the hair growth cycle. This repeating method provides optimal hair reduction in the selected area.
Areas of coarser darker hair, like the lower legs, underarms, and bikini line do the best with the fewest treatments. The face and arms may require more sessions because hair in these areas are finer.

Interestingly, laser hair removal was first studied in women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). This condition affects hormone levels, which in turn results in excessive hair growth.
It’s important to remember that laser hair removal does not provide permanent hair removal for anyone. That said, laser treatments can be effective and can make a significant impact for individuals with PCOS.
Because of the nature of PCOS, hair growth is harder to control. As a result, individuals with PCOS may require a greater number of laser treatments. In addition, a more vigorous maintenance schedule may be required in order to maintain the results.
An experienced physician will be able to talk to you knowledgeably and honestly about the results you can expect and should be able to provide before and after photos of previous clients with PCOS.
No. Laser hair removal is not a plastic surgery - it is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure. Plastic surgery is a type of medical surgery dedicated to reconstruction of facial and body defects, including tummy tuck, fat reduction through liposuction, breast augmentation or breast reconstruction, and various types of face lifts.
While lasers are used to remove tattoos as well as unwanted hair, the types of lasers are different for each procedure. For example, a laser system called Vbeam Perfecta is used to treat acne scars, age spots, rosacea, port wine stains, and remove stretch marks. On the other hand, the Picosure laser system is used to remove tattoos.
However, the hair removal laser may still affect a tattoo by causing the ink to scatter. This may reduce the color of the tattoo by up to 75%.
It is possible to maintain your tattoo and still receive laser hair removal. One option is to laser around the tattoo, then use alternative methods for hair removal on the tattooed skin. Another option is to complete your laser hair removal sessions prior to getting a tattoo. You can discuss these options and more with an Ethos Spa physician during your initial consultation.
Side effects are mild and temporary. They usually vary according to each patient’s skin tone and hair color. There is a greater risk of skin damage for people with little contrast in hair and skin color, but our experienced physicians and latest techs Ethos Spa ensure that laser hair removal works for all skin types and tones.
Some of the most common side effects of laser hair removal include discomfort, redness, swelling, and pigment changes.
These symptoms can be reduced by following the recommended skin care instructions before and after the procedure.
During your initial consultation, one of our specialists will clearly explain the procedure and your options, to ensure your complete peace of mind about the procedure. Your comfort and safety are always our first priority.

Treatment times vary depending on the several factors, including the size of the area being treated. For example, a treatment to remove hair from the legs or back may take an hour or more. Treatments for small areas such as the upper lip or sideburns will take significantly less time.

Every patient is different -- unwanted hair in various parts of the body respond differently to the treatment because of the hair’s texture and color. Overall, however, results can last anywhere from several months to several years.
When hair does return, it becomes finer and less noticeable.
Periodic maintenance visits are recommended to help manage any unwanted regrowth. Laser hair removal rarely results in permanent hair removal.
