Why choose laser hair removal?
Before diving into the areas that benefit from laser hair removal, it's important to understand why this treatment is so popular. Unlike other methods that require constant upkeep every few days or weeks, our team targets the root of the problem — literally — by destroying hair follicles. Whether you have excess black hair, dark blonde hair, or light brown hair, you can enjoy the same ultra-smooth results.
Areas we treat with laser hair removal
Now, let's explore the areas that can be treated with laser hair removal:
- Arms: Whether you're self-conscious about hairy forearms or want to say goodbye to underarm stubble, laser hair removal can help. Our New Orleans team uses a special handheld device that delivers precise bursts of light energy to the unwanted hair.
- Legs: Many women struggle with shaving their legs regularly, especially during swimsuit season. Laser treatment is an excellent alternative to shaving. Toss out your razors and say hello to carefree beach days.
- Back: Men often opt for hair removal on their backs, which is notoriously difficult to reach and maintain on their own. In just a few sessions, we can significantly reduce the amount of hair on your back.
- Face: Facial hair can be a source of embarrassment, especially if you have black hair on the upper lip and chin. With laser hair removal, you can maintain a smooth look.
- Bikini line: This delicate area can be tricky to manage, and traditional hair removal methods can often lead to irritation or ingrown hairs. With laser treatment, you can have a perfectly groomed bikini line without the fuss.

Can I shave after laser hair removal?
So, can I shave after laser hair removal? Yes! In fact, we recommend shaving before your session to ensure the laser energy can effectively reach the hair follicles. However, it's important to avoid waxing or plucking after treatment, as this can disrupt your results. Dr. Stalder will offer detailed aftercare instructions to ensure you get the most out of your sessions.
