The three questions everyone asks
Does laser hair removal hurt, and is it safe for dark skin?
Is it safe for darker skin?
Yes, with the right settings. The Alma Soprano Platinum is cleared for all skin types, I to VI. Your provider sets the laser for your skin type and offers a test spot first. Mention any recent sun or tanning.
Does it hurt?
Most people find it comfortable. The handpiece glides as it heats the area gradually, and a cooled tip protects the skin surface. You may feel warmth and an occasional light snap. Most people go back to their day.
How much does it cost?
It depends on the areas and the number of sessions. It is priced at your consult. Ask about payment options then.
What sets the cost of laserAreas

Areas commonly treated for men: beard line, neck, chest, abdomen, back and shoulders.
Several areas can be treated in one visit. Ask about full-body sessions at your consultation.
How it works
How laser hair removal works
The laser heats the pigment (melanin) in the hair root. This is effective only during the active growth phase, and hair grows in cycles, so a series of sessions is needed.
- 01
Consult
Your provider examines your skin and hair, reviews medications and sun exposure, and sets the plan.
- 02
Shave the area
Shave 24 hours before. Avoid waxing or plucking for four weeks before, because the laser needs the hair root intact.
- 03
The session
You wear protective eyewear. The handpiece glides over the area in repeated passes. Small areas take about 15 minutes.
- 04
Between sessions
Treated hair sheds over one to three weeks. The next session follows four to eight weeks later, depending on the area.

The laser we use
Our laser: the Alma Soprano Platinum
Magic FemTouch MedSpa uses the Alma Soprano Platinum, a diode laser system for hair removal. It works with three wavelengths, 755, 810 and 1064 nm, and its Trio applicator combines all three in one handpiece. Different wavelengths reach hair at different depths.
In its in-motion mode, the handpiece glides over the skin and delivers many low-energy pulses, so heat builds gradually in the hair follicle. A cooled contact tip keeps the skin surface cool during treatment. Most people find it comfortable.
The system is FDA-cleared for laser hair removal and cleared for all skin types, I to VI, including tanned skin. Your provider still sets the laser for your skin and hair, and offers a test spot first. See laser hair removal for darker skin.
Consult first. Walk-ins welcome.
Ask about your skin and hair at a free consultation. Small areas take about 15 minutes.
“The staff is incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and professional… they truly go above and beyond to personalize your care.”

Questions
Laser hair removal questions
Is laser hair removal safe for darker skin?
Yes, with the right settings. We use the Alma Soprano Platinum, which is cleared for all skin types, I to VI. Your provider sets the laser for your skin type at a free consultation and offers a test spot first.
How many laser hair removal sessions will I need?
Most areas take 6 to 8 sessions, 4 to 8 weeks apart. Hair grows in cycles, and the laser is effective only on hair in its active growth phase. Your provider gives you the number for your area at the consultation.
Does laser hair removal hurt?
Most people find it comfortable. The Soprano Platinum heats the area gradually and cools the skin surface as it works, so you mainly feel warmth, sometimes a light snap. Small areas take about 15 minutes. The skin can look pink for a few hours.
Is laser hair removal permanent?
It is permanent hair reduction, not complete removal. Most treated hair does not grow back, and any regrowth is often finer. Some people need a touch-up session later.
How much does laser hair removal cost?
The cost depends on the areas treated and the number of sessions. It is quoted at your consultation, where you can also ask about payment options.
Does laser help with PCOS facial hair?
It can reduce hair on the chin, upper lip and neck. Hormonal changes can stimulate new hair growth over time, so some people need touch-up sessions. Tell your provider about PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome) at the consultation.
Can laser stop ingrown hairs and razor bumps?
It often helps, because fewer hairs remain to grow back into the skin. Your provider examines the area at the consultation. Do not pick or wax the bumps before your visit.
I have sensitive skin. Can I still get laser?
Usually, yes. Tell your provider about reactions, eczema or medicines at the consult. We offer a test spot on a small patch, and the settings are adjusted for your skin.
Should I shave before laser? Is a little stubble OK?
Shave the area about 24 hours before. Short stubble is acceptable. Do not wax, pluck or thread for four weeks before, because the laser needs the hair root intact.
When does the hair fall out after laser?
Treated hair sheds over one to three weeks. As it works its way out, it can look as if the hair is growing back. This is normal.
Who should not get laser hair removal?
Postpone treatment if you are pregnant, have a recent tan, or take a medication that increases light sensitivity. Very light, gray or red hair usually responds poorly. Your provider reviews all of this at the consultation.
Does it work on light or gray hair?
Laser works best on dark hair. Blonde, gray, white and red hair contain little pigment and usually respond less. Your provider assesses your hair at the consultation.
Do you do laser hair removal for men?
Yes. Men commonly treat the back, shoulders, chest, neck or beard line. The consultation and treatment plan follow the same process.
Can I walk in for laser?
Yes, Tuesday to Saturday. Your first visit is a free consultation. If the plan fits and there is time, your first session can often start the same day.
Which laser do you use for hair removal?
We use the Alma Soprano Platinum, a diode laser with three wavelengths, 755, 810 and 1064 nm. It heats the hair follicle gradually and has a cooled tip that protects the skin surface. It is cleared for all skin types, I to VI.
Is the laser consultation free, and can I have a test spot?
Yes. The consultation is free, and we offer a test spot on a small patch before a full area. Your provider checks how your skin responds before your first full session.
What do I do after a session?
Avoid sun exposure on the area and apply sunscreen to it. Avoid hot tubs and strenuous workouts for a day. Your provider reviews aftercare before you leave.
