Underarm Laser Hair Removal
If you’re seeking a longer-term solution to the constant upkeep of shaving or waxing underarm hair, armpit laser hair removal might be a viable option. This procedure targets and disables the hair follicles, resulting in weeks of hair-free skin.
Before scheduling your laser hair removal appointment, it’s crucial to have a comprehensive understanding of the advantages and potential risks associated with this cosmetic treatment.
While laser hair removal can provide extended periods of hair reduction, it’s important to note that the procedure is not considered permanent, and individual experiences of pain may vary.

Underarm Laser Hair Removal
When embarking on the journey of laser hair removal, a staggering 96% of our patients choose to begin with underarm treatment. There are several reasons for this preference. Firstly, the underarm area tends to have the coarsest and densest hair, making it an ideal starting point. Additionally, the underarms are a smaller area, requiring less time and commitment. Most importantly, many patients find the underarm area bothersome due to its visibility and the high risk of irritation after traditional methods like shaving.
How It Works
Laser hair removal achieves remarkable results by targeting and eliminating the root of each hair follicle through a process called selective photothermolysis, utilizing laser absorption. During the treatment, pulses of laser energy are precisely directed onto the skin, targeting the root of each hair follicle. This process leads to a deprivation of oxygen in the hair follicle, inhibiting further hair growth. Over time, with repeated treatments, the hair becomes dormant, resulting in long-lasting smoothness. While laser hair removal is considered a permanent solution, it's important to note that future changes in health and hormonal factors may trigger hair regrowth. Therefore, we strongly recommend bi-yearly maintenance treatments to ensure continued effectiveness.

Preparing for Laser Hair Removal: Essential Steps to Follow
To maximize the effectiveness of your laser hair removal treatment and ensure a smooth and comfortable experience, there are several important steps you should take to prepare:- Shave the Treatment Area: It is crucial to shave the area you intend to have treated within 24 hours prior to your appointment. This helps the laser precisely target the hair follicles, allowing for more effective results.
- Keep the Area Clean: Before your treatment, ensure the treatment area is clean and free of any cosmetics, perfumes, or skincare products. This allows the laser to focus solely on the hair follicles, optimizing the treatment's efficiency.
- Avoid Sun Exposure: Minimize sun exposure to the treatment area for at least two weeks before and after your laser hair removal appointment. Sunburned or tanned skin can increase the risk of adverse side effects and compromise the treatment's effectiveness. It is best to protect the treated area with clothing or sunscreen during this time.
- Steer Clear of Self-Tanning Products: Refrain from using self-tanning lotions, sprays, or tanning beds prior to your laser session. The laser works most effectively on natural skin tones without artificial pigmentation.
- Say No to Waxing or Plucking: Avoid waxing, plucking, or using hair removal creams in the treatment area for at least four weeks leading up to your laser hair removal session. These methods remove the hair follicles, which are the target of laser treatment. Allowing the hair to grow ensures better results.
- Consult with Your Healthcare Provider: If you have any underlying medical conditions, take medications, or have a history of skin issues, it is essential to consult with your healthcare provider or a Distill Laser aesthetician. They can provide valuable guidance based on your specific situation, ensuring a safe and effective treatment.
Proper Aftercare for Laser Hair Removal: Enhancing Healing and Results
Taking care of your skin after laser hair removal is crucial for ensuring proper healing and maximizing the effectiveness of the treatment. To promote a smooth recovery and achieve optimal results, it's important to follow these essential aftercare guidelines:- Shield from Sun Exposure: Protect the treated area from direct sunlight for at least two weeks following the procedure. If you must go outside, apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with a high SPF to the treated area or cover it with clothing. Sun exposure can increase the risk of complications and hinder the healing process.
- Maintain Cleanliness: Gently cleanse the treated area with mild soap and water. Avoid using harsh cleansers or scrubbing the area vigorously, as this can irritate the skin. Pat dry the area with a soft towel.
- Steer Clear of Heat Sources: Avoid exposing the treated area to excessive heat for the first 24 to 48 hours. This includes hot showers, saunas, steam rooms, and activities that cause profuse sweating. Heat can further sensitize and irritate the treated skin.
- Hands Off: Allow the treated hair follicles to naturally shed without interference. Avoid picking, scratching, or forcefully exfoliating the area, as this can lead to irritation, inflammation, or potential scarring. Let your skin heal on its own.
- Moisturize Regularly: Keep the treated area moisturized with a gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer. This helps soothe the skin and prevent dryness, promoting a healthy recovery process. Consult with your provider for suitable moisturizer recommendations.
- Avoid Irritating Products and Treatments: Refrain from using abrasive scrubs, chemical peels, retinoids, or any other products or treatments that may irritate or sensitize the treated skin. Allow your skin to heal without unnecessary stressors.
- Patience is Key: Remember that achieving the full results of laser hair removal takes time. Hair in the treated area may continue to shed over the following weeks, revealing smoother skin. Multiple sessions are often required to achieve optimal and long-lasting results. Trust the process and be patient.
