Why Choose Laser Hair Removal?

Laser hair removal uses targeted light energy to disable hair follicles, reducing unwanted hair growth over time. It’s fast, precise, and effective for most body areas. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

What to Expect When You Come to Blu Monarch

Your experience will begin with a consultation to assess your skin type, hair color, and treatment goals. We’ll explain exactly how many sessions you may need, what kind of results to expect, and how to prepare for your treatment.

During treatment, a state-of-the-art laser device is used to deliver pulses of light to the target areas while cooling systems protect the skin’s surface. Most clients say it feels like a mild snap or pinch — significantly more comfortable than many waxing experiences. :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}

Before & Aftercare Highlights

To achieve the best results with laser hair removal, we recommend the following:

✔ Before Your Session

• Avoid sun tanning and self-tanners for at least 2 weeks before treatment. :contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7}
• Stop waxing, plucking or bleaching hair in the area; shaving is usually recommended instead. :contentReference[oaicite:8]{index=8}

✔ After Your Session

• You may experience mild redness or swelling which typically subsides in a few hours. :contentReference[oaicite:9]{index=9}
• Avoid sun exposure, hot tubs or heavy sweating for 24–48 hours to protect treated areas.
• Wear loose, breathable clothing and keep the area clean and protected from friction.

How Many Sessions Are Needed?

Because hair grows in cycles, multiple sessions are needed to catch all follicles at the right stage. Many clients begin to see significant reduction after 3-6 sessions, with maintenance visits possibly once or twice a year thereafter. :contentReference[oaicite:10]{index=10}
