Should You Choose Waxing Or Laser Hair Removal?

Eventually everyone gets tired of shaving. You might be wondering whether waxing or laser hair removal is the best choice for permanent hair removal. Here's some pros and cons to consider for both options.

Laser treatments will help get rid of hair more long-term. Waxing must be repeated on a regular basis.

Laser hair removal requires an average of 6-8 treatments, and then you are hair free. Laser treatments also quicker with our appointments being much shorter than waxing appointments.

The sensation or pain can be similar for both treatments. But with the sessions being shorter, laser treatments are usually more tolerable.

And you can say goodbye to painful ingrown hairs and razor burn from shaving. Many of our clients get laser hair removal treatments specifically to rid themselves of the hassle and pain of ingrown hairs.

Which Option Is Less Expensive?

Laser hair removal cost is more of an initial investment than waxing. Waxing might seem less expensive than laser hair removal if you compare the price per treatment.

But if you think long term, you could be waxing every few weeks for the rest of your life. That can really add up.

Laser treatments may be more of an initial cost, but they don't need to be done on such a regular basis once your treatments are completed.

Is Waxing Safer Than Laser Hair Removal?

Some people may worry about the safety of laser treatments. This is a valid concern. The wrong equipment in the wrong hands can cause superficial damage to the skin.

Advanced Laser Clinic uses only medical grade lasers and highly trained technicians. This greatly reduces your risk.

Waxing can cause damage to the skin with the heat and/or the technique that is used. It can also cause people to have more of a propensity for ingrown hairs.

Upkeep Of Hair Removal

Waxing requires constant upkeep. Your hair eventually thins and grows back slower after years of waxing. But appointments are still required every three to four weeks.

Laser treatments are the more permanent hair removal option. Once the hair is gone, the only thing that will cause new hair follicles to develop are hormones.

After years go by or after certain hormone therapies, touch ups may be necessary. These touch-ups are very affordable and our clients usually only need one or two.
