Laser Hair Removal in Downtown Los Angeles

MedBeautyLA offers targeted laser hair removal in downtown Los Angeles. Laser hair removal is a safe and effective option for those sensitive to shaving, ingrown hairs, or for anyone who wants to spend less time and money on waxing, shaving, and unwanted hair. Studies show that the average person spends over $10,000 on shaving accessories alone over a lifetime.

At MedBeautyLA, we use the state-of-the-art laser hair removal technology, which includes a cooling mechanism and time-diffused energy pulses.

  2. Notice a difference by session threeMost clients notice a significant reduction in hair density after just three sessions.

Comfort and the Stellar M22

Numbing cream is applied to any especially sensitive areas before your treatment to make the experience as comfortable as possible. Our Stellar M22 laser also includes a cooling mechanism, as well as time-diffused energy pulses, which reduce the intensity of each pulse without compromising results. Many describe the experience as a "rubber band" being snapped against their skin.

How Pricing Works

An accurate price estimate requires a consult, and all clients must schedule a pre-treatment exam to make sure they are a good candidate for laser hair removal. Ready to get started?

Frequently Asked Questions

Does laser hair removal hurt?

Most patients describe the sensation as a rubber band snap. Our advanced lasers have built-in cooling systems for comfort. Sensitive areas may have more sensation but it's very tolerable.

How many treatments will I need?

Most patients need six to nine sessions spaced about four weeks apart for optimal results. Hair grows in cycles, so multiple treatments are needed to catch all follicles in their growth phase.

How does laser hair removal work?

Most laser hair removal devices don't actually use laser energy. Instead, they use IPL, or intense pulsed light, to target and kill the hair follicle in specific areas. Multiple sessions are required in order to treat your follicles at their different growth cycles.

Is it really permanent?

Yes! Laser hair removal provides permanent hair reduction. Most patients see 80-95% permanent hair loss. Occasional touch-ups may be needed for hormonal changes or new growth.

Can I get laser hair removal on dark skin?

Absolutely! Our advanced laser technology is safe and effective for all skin types, including darker skin tones. We customize settings for your specific skin and hair type.

What should I avoid before treatment?

No waxing, plucking, or threading for 4 weeks before treatment (shaving is fine). Avoid sun exposure and tanning for 2 weeks. Come to your appointment with freshly shaved skin.

Is laser hair removal for men?

Absolutely! Laser hair removal is for almost anyone who would like to see a significant reduction in hair density on specific areas of the body. Many of our laser hair removal clients are men, with back, shoulders, and the back of the neck typically being the most common treatment areas.

When will I see results?

Hair will shed 1-2 weeks after treatment. You'll notice less hair growth after each session, with significant reduction visible after 3-4 treatments.

How much does laser hair removal cost?

It's priced per session by area size: $85 for an extra-small area like the upper lip or chin, $105 for a small area, $195 for a medium area like the underarms or bikini, and $265 for a large area like the legs, back or a Brazilian. See the full price list. An accurate price estimate will require a consult.

Do I need a consultation first?

Yes. Every new client books a virtual laser consultation with Dr. Aliksanian before their first session, to make sure laser hair removal is right for your skin and hair and to plan your areas.

Will I be hair free?

Many clients see a complete reduction of hair at the treatment site after completing the recommended number of laser hair removal sessions. Others may not experience total hair reduction, but will see a significant overall reduction in hair density as well as require much less time between shaves.

How should I prepare for my laser hair removal session? When is the best time of year to start?

Laser hair removal in Los Angeles is most recommended during months in which you don't anticipate sun exposure on the treatment site(s), as IPL makes skin more sensitive to sun and UV damage. Because of this, most of our LA laser clients opt for treatments between fall and winter.
