The Treatment in Depth
Underarms are one of the most rewarding areas to treat with laser hair removal — the skin responds quickly, the sessions are short, and the results tend to be dramatic. The laser targets the pigment in each follicle directly, disabling its ability to produce new hair while leaving the surrounding skin unharmed. For most clients, this means an end to the daily ritual of shaving, the shadow of stubble, and the irritation that comes with it.
Because underarm hair is typically coarse and dark, it absorbs laser energy efficiently, which is why this area often shows faster progress than many others. Most clients achieve roughly 80–90% permanent reduction across a series of 6–8 sessions, with both underarms treated together in one quick visit. Results vary from person to person depending on hair type, hormones, and skin tone, which is exactly why a consultation comes first.
At Blush 'N Beauty Spa, Lauren personally reviews your hair, skin tone, and goals during your initial consultation to design a plan that is safe and effective for you. With over 19 years of aesthetic experience, she calibrates each treatment to your skin so you can feel confident that your care is customized — never one-size-fits-all.
Key Benefits
How It Works
Consultation & Skin Assessment
Before your first treatment, Lauren evaluates your skin tone, hair type, and medical history to confirm the right settings and protocol. This step is required and included with your first session.
Prep & Protection
The area is cleansed and the hair trimmed to skin level, then protective eyewear is provided and the laser settings are tailored to your skin and hair.
Laser Treatment
The handpiece delivers targeted pulses of light to each follicle, often with a cooling system to keep you comfortable. Treating both underarms typically takes only 15–20 minutes.
Soothing & Aftercare Guidance
A calming product may be applied, and you will receive clear aftercare instructions. You can return to most normal activities right away.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many sessions will I need?+
Most clients see optimal results after 6–8 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart, though the exact number can vary based on your hair and skin. Hair grows in cycles, so a series is needed to catch each follicle in its active growth phase.
Is laser hair removal permanent?+
Laser treatment produces permanent hair reduction, meaning a significant and lasting decrease in hair. Results vary, and occasional maintenance sessions may help keep the area smooth over time.
Does it hurt?+
Most clients describe the sensation as a quick snap, like a rubber band against the skin. The underarm session is brief, and our cooling technology helps keep you comfortable throughout.
Is it safe for my skin tone?+
Modern laser technology can be safely customized for all skin tones, which is why a consultation is required first. Lauren selects the right settings for your specific skin to keep treatment both safe and effective.
