Is laser hair removal safe on the underarm?
Yes, underarm laser hair removal is a safe way to remove hair. Laser works by delivering pulses of heat and light into the hair follicle. After a course of treatment this disables hair follicles and prevents new hairs from regrowing. Laser delivers this heat very superficially on this skin, this will not travel deep enough into the skin to cause any damage to the surrounding skin and tissue. We use medical grade 4 lasers in our clinic’s, these lasers are FDA approved and are clinically proven to reduce hair.

The reduction you will achieve from your initial course of laser will be life changing. However, a small percentage of hairs that may have not been in the correct stage of growth for laser to work will regrow. These are the hairs that will need top up treatments in order to remove them.
