Will it hurt? Is it safe?
Waxing hurts. A lot. Especially on your arms. We’ve all been through this. Women’s half arms laser hair removal on the other hand does not.
No, let us rephrase. Pain is not the right term. A women’s half arms laser treatment feels like pinching. Or it can also be compared to the feel of rubber band snapping at the skin.
You may feel some heat too.
Laser hair removal does not hurt. It may feel unpleasant. Yet, it is mostly comfortable. The arms are not the most sensitive area of the body.
Thus, the treatment will be quite tolerable. Some aloe vera gel will help sooth your skin.
Laser treatments are also very safe. Like any other cosmetic procedures, it has risks. However, those are very rare. You can also easily avoid them.
You just need to follow your technician’s instructions.
How many half arms sessions will I need?
Our half arms hair removal package includes six sessions.
Each must be six weeks apart. This is because of
the hair growth cycle. Laser treatments only work on hair that is actively growing.
The growth phase of the hair cycle is called anagen. It is the only time the hair and follicle connect. This allows the energy to pass from the former to the latter.
Since 20% of your hair is in the anagen phase, one session can target 20% of hair. Each successive session will treat an additional 20%.
The arms are not a hormonal area. Thus, it is easier to remove. Patients may still need additional sessions for touch-ups.
