You know the feeling.

You’ve pencilled in your plans, and you’re halfway through getting ready, already running more than a few minutes behind, and then ~ oh no! You forgot to shave. Again.

Cue the chaotic music and emergency razor session, the patchy ankle job, and the inevitable post-shave sting.

Or maybe you’ve tried waxing, only to leave the salon with red, blotchy skin and a promise to yourself: “never again.”

Sound familiar? You’re not alone.

But guess what ~ it doesn’t have to be this way.

If you’re ready to break up with your razor for good (or at least take a long break), laser hair removal at New Radiance might just be the low-maintenance solution you’ve been waiting for.

At New Radiance, we make smooth skin simple. Our laser treatments are science-backed, highly effective, and less painful than traditional hair removal methods.

But before you book your first session, here’s everything you need to know to get the best results and walk in with confidence.

Laser Hair Removal 101: What Is It?

Let’s clear up some common confusion (and maybe a little stubble while we’re at it).

Laser hair removal isn’t a sci-fi beam that zaps follicles into another dimension (though that would be cool). It is actually a highly targeted, scientific treatment that uses concentrated light to reach the melanin (pigment) in your hair follicles.

The light heats and damages the follicle just enough to slow or stop future growth, which means:

Less stubble
Fewer ingrown hairs
Reduced regrowth
More time back in your life

At New Radiance, we customize every treatment to your unique skin tone and hair type. No cookie-cutter approaches here.

And thanks to today’s advanced technology, our lasers work better than ever on darker hair and skin tones, which older systems often struggled with. It’s a safer, more inclusive, and far more effective experience all around.

Nervous? Don’t Be. You’re in Expert Hands.

If you’re feeling a little unsure, we get it. But you’re not alone, and you’re definitely not expected to know everything.

Our certified technicians will walk you through every step, answer every question (even the ones you think are silly), and ensure you’re comfortable the whole way through.

One Session Isn’t Magic ~ But It’s a Start

Here’s what many people don’t realize: laser hair removal is a process, not a one-time fix.

Why? Because hair grows in cycles, and the laser is most effective during the active growth phase.

That’s why most clients need an average of 6 sessions, spaced 4–8 weeks apart, to see optimal results. Occasional touch-ups may be needed later on, but after your full series, you can expect long-term hair reduction and smoother, calmer skin ~ for the long haul.

Before You Zap: Pre-Treatment Tips

For the best possible outcome, here’s how to prep before your appointment:

Avoid sun exposure for at least 2 weeks. That includes tanning beds and major sunbathing. Even self-tanning lotions and spray tans are a NO NO!
Shave the treatment area the night before or morning of. (Yes, the razor sticks around a little longer, but waxing and plucking are a no-go!)
Arrive with clean skin. No lotions, oils, deodorants, or makeup on the area being treated. If not possible, we will cleanse the area being treated.

Aftercare: Because Your Skin Has Feelings Too

You might feel a little redness, warmth, or swelling after your session ~ this is totally normal and usually fades within hours or a couple of days.

For best results and the happiest skin:

Avoid hot showers, sweaty workouts, friction and saunas for 24–48 hours.
Stay hydrated and moisturize gently.
Keep the area clean, protected, and out of the sun. SPF? Yes please!

Think of it like post-sunburn TLC. Your skin will thank you.

Be Patient ~ Smooth Skin Is Coming

After each treatment, hair will gradually shed over the following weeks. Results aren’t instant, but they are cumulative, and by sticking to your plan, you’ll likely see a significant reduction in regrowth and razor burn by the end of your sessions.

Laser > last-minute shaving. Every. Time.

Ready to Ditch the Razor Rush?

If you’re over the nicks, the stubble, the scheduling around wax appointments, or the 5-minute panic shaves, it might be time to try laser hair removal.

Book your consultation at New Radiance, our expert team will guide you through the process, customize your plan, and help you achieve the silky, low-maintenance skin your future self will love.
