Laser hair reduction has come a long way. At Aura, we use the Motus AZ+ laser, which is designed to be effective for all skin tones with minimal discomfort. Here is what most first-time clients want to know before they come in.
Preparation
Shave the area you want treated 24 hours before your appointment. Do not wax, tweeze, or thread for at least four weeks prior, because the laser needs the hair follicle to be intact to be effective. Avoid tanning or significant sun exposure before your session.
What Happens During the Session
Dipna will review your skin type and hair characteristics before beginning. The Motus AZ+ uses a unique sweeping motion rather than individual pulses, which makes the treatment faster and more comfortable than traditional lasers. Most clients describe the sensation as mild warmth.
How Many Sessions Will You Need
Most clients need 6 to 12 sessions for optimal results. Hair grows in cycles, and laser treatment is most effective during the active growth phase. You may start seeing smoother, slower-growing hair after just 1 to 3 sessions.
Aftercare
Avoid sun exposure for at least a week after treatment. Wear SPF daily. Avoid heat, strenuous exercise, and hot showers for 24 hours post-treatment.
If you have questions specific to your skin or hair type, the best next step is a free consultation with Dipna.
