Laser Hair Removal Reviews
If you’re looking for high quality professional care look no further than Body Beauty Lab. Specifically, the esthetician, Judy, is absolutely incredible. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable and informed on all services, she’s kind, funny and attentive. I’m pretty sure she’s the only person who could make laser hair removal fun. Cannot recommend this establishment and Judy enough. 10/10 🌟
Lua at Body+Beauty Lab has been my aesthetician for several months now and I have been thrilled with my experience! She is very conscientious, professional, and respectful. She has a lot of prior training and is very knowledgeable and skilled with using lasers, and when I have questions about my treatments she is always able to answer them. All of my laser treatments have gone really well and I have had excellent results. I would definitely recommend going to Lua at Body+Beauty Lab for laser hair removal!
I have been a client of Judy’s at Body + Beauty Lab for about 3 years now and I couldn’t imagine going to anyone else. She is incredibly knowledgeable about every procedure, but most of all she has the best personality. She is caring and attentive while also being lighthearted and funny! Sometimes laser treatments can be a bit painful, but Judy’s charm gets me through it. And she’ll email me afterwards to check in and see how I’m recovering. I’ve been satisfied with all my results. I highly recommend booking an appointment with Judy.
I have been going here for a year and a half and could not be happier. The staff is so knowledgeable and they truly care for their clients. I did a lot of research before booking my first appointment because doing anything to your face that could change the appearance isn’t something to take lightly. They take the time to understand your skin and goals and will advise you on the best options. I always look forward to coming here! I’d highly recommend Sarah as an injector and Sandra for laser treatments.
I always go to Judy for my hydra facials and laser hair removal. She always does a great and thorough job. I’m very happy with all of my treatments and can’t wait to come back again!

About UsProcedure Technique
On the day of your laser hair removal appointment, you will lie in a private treatment room as the intended areas of your face and body are washed to eliminate oil, dirt, and moisturizers. During the procedure, a team member will stretch out the area to create a clear pathway between the root of the hair follicle and the laser. The laser's energy will focus on and disable the follicle, which stops the hair from growing again. Usually, you will need to get 3 – 5 treatments over 3 – 4 weeks to see your ideal results. Your appointments are staggered to give the affected areas a chance to heal. It also allows time for follicles in the dormant phase to reach the phase of active growth so the laser can be effective. The state-of-the-art technology we use at Body+Beauty Lab targets only the hair follicle to preserve the skin and other tissue in the area being treated.
What to Expect
Although this treatment is mostly gentle, the affected areas of your skin may appear to have a light sunburn because lasers are used. After your session, you will be able to return to your normal activities, but you should avoid any strenuous activity or lengthy exposure to the sun for at least a day to allow the treated skin to recover. While at home following your appointment, we recommend patients to use soothing creams or ice packs to treat any mild discomfort.
Laser Hair Removal FAQs
How much does laser hair removal cost?
Laser hair removal costs will vary, depending on the size and number of areas being treated, as well as how many treatment sessions you will need to reach your optimal results. To fully understand the benefits of laser hair removal, think about the energy and time you currently put into shaving, waxing, and other short-term removal methods. All of this considered, laser hair removal is generally cheaper and can save you a lot of work and money long-term. Your technician will develop a personalized plan that includes your number of required appointments. From here, we will be able to estimate your out-of-pocket costs and discuss your various payment options. We encourage patients to learn about our VIP membership program, which features exclusive offers on a range of our most popular services.
Is laser hair removal permanent?
Considered an effective treatment, laser hair removal produces lasting improvements. While patients can enjoy the results from their procedure for a long time, laser hair removal is technically semi-permanent since some follicles may be unaffected. If a few hairs still continue to grow, they're much easier to deal with. More laser sessions may be needed to address new growth and any stragglers.
Why do I need multiple laser hair removal sessions?
Hair growth occurs in phases. When some follicles are growing, others are resting. Because every follicle is in a different stage, several sessions are suggested to target each follicle when it's active. Getting your treatments over a few weeks helps you get effective results and smoother skin.
Does laser hair removal hurt?
The process of laser hair removal can cause mild discomfort, but it isn't too painful. Patients may feel a small snap as the laser zaps each follicle. Your technician may use a local anesthetic on your skin before your treatment. According to our clients who have been getting waxed for years, they typically find that laser hair removal is much more comfortable in comparison.
Which laser is best to remove hair?
With so many laser systems available on the cosmetic market, Body+Beauty Lab makes sure to use only the most cutting-edge hair removal technology for women and men of most hair colors and types. The lasers we use (Motif Vantage and Elos) deliver amazing results. To always remain up-to-date with industry advancements, we upgrade our practice as different lasers become available. Ask us for more information on our innovative laser systems during your appointment if you have any questions.
