Laser Hair Removal in Oak Ridge

To achieve the best results from your laser hair removal in Oak Ridge, we recommend scheduling treatments every 4 to 8 weeks.

Not all hair follicles are in the same phase of growth at once, so this timing allows the laser to target hair follicles in the active growth phase over time. For the best outcome, we allow the hair to re-grow before each subsequent session.

The exact timing between treatments will depend on factors like the specific treatment area you’re addressing, as well as your unique physiology. In general, we schedule facial hair treatments every 4 weeks, while we space out body hair treatments every 6 to 8 weeks.

During your consultation, we’ll create a personalized treatment schedule and provide an estimate of how long it will take to achieve your goals.

The laser we use is gentle and noninvasive, so there’s no downtime or recovery needed after your treatment. You may notice some mild redness or itchiness in the area after your session, similar to a mild sunburn, but this should resolve within a few hours.

For most patients, completing a laser hair removal treatment plan at Shea results in the loss of nearly all unwanted hair in the treated area(s).

However, it’s normal for a few stubborn hairs to remain or for new hair to grow back over time. When hair does regrow, it’s typically lighter, finer, and much less noticeable than the original hair.

Our bodies are very good at regrowing hair. Therefore, most patients need a touch-up laser hair removal session every 6 to 18 months. In the months following your sessions, if you notice new hair growth, just let us know. We’ll be glad to schedule a maintenance session to remove it!
