common laser hair removal questions

FAQ
what does laser hair removal cost in austin?

Packages at Revelus start at $499, and touch-up sessions start at $99. Pricing varies based on the treatment area and the number of sessions needed. Your provider will walk you through a personalized cost estimate during your consultation.

how many sessions will I need, and how long does each one take?

Most patients complete 6 to 8 sessions, scheduled approximately every 4 weeks, to achieve significant hair reduction. Session length ranges from about 10 minutes for small areas like the upper lip to up to 60 minutes for larger areas like the legs or back. The exact number of sessions depends on your hair color, skin tone, treatment area, and individual hair growth cycle. Maintenance sessions may be needed over time.

is laser hair removal permanent?

Laser hair removal produces long-term hair reduction rather than guaranteed permanent removal in all cases. Most patients achieve 80 to 90 percent reduction after completing a full treatment series. Occasional maintenance sessions may be needed, particularly for hormonally influenced areas.

what laser do you use for hair removal?

We use the Elysion Pro, an FDA-cleared diode laser with multi-wavelength technology designed to treat all skin tones safely and effectively, including darker complexions. Its integrated Crystal Freeze cooling system keeps treatments comfortable from start to finish.

is laser hair removal safe for darker skin tones?

Yes. The Elysion Pro is designed to treat all Fitzpatrick skin types, including types IV through VI. Our providers will assess your skin tone and customize device settings to ensure both safety and effectiveness for your complexion.

does laser hair removal hurt?

Most patients describe the sensation as a brief warmth or snap. The Elysion Pro’s integrated Crystal Freeze cooling system keeps the skin comfortable throughout the session, and most people tolerate treatments very well.

how should I prepare for my laser hair removal appointment?

Follow these steps before your session:

  • Do not wax, pluck, thread, or use depilatories in the treatment area for at least 6 weeks prior
  • Shave the treatment area 1 day before your appointment (not immediately before)
  • Avoid tanning, tanning beds, and self-tanners for 2 weeks before treatment
  • Discontinue Retin-A, hydroquinone, or other lightening agents 1 week before
  • Arrive with clean, dry skin free of makeup, deodorant, perfume, or powder
  • If you have a history of cold sores and are treating the mouth area, ask your provider about antiviral medication in advance
  • Let your provider know about any photosensitizing medications or recent isotretinoin use
what should I expect after my laser hair removal treatment?

Redness and warmth are normal on day 1. Mild swelling and a pink hue may persist into day 2, and any residual redness continues to fade through days 3 to 7. For home care:

  • Avoid intentional sun exposure for at least 2 weeks after treatment
  • Apply a broad-spectrum zinc-oxide sunscreen, SPF 30 or higher, daily
  • Avoid hot tubs, saunas, and intense workouts for 24 hours
  • Ask your provider about recommended products to protect and support your results
