For the best (and safest) laser hair removal in the Bay Area, the place to go is L&P Aesthetics in Palo Alto, CA.

Unwanted hair is a constant, persistent inconvenience that requires unnecessary thought and valuable time. At L&P Aesthetics, we aim to remove one source of stress from your everyday life through our expert providers and industry-leading technology. Registered Nurse Ginger Orozco has a passion for treating patients with laser hair removal and has been doing it effectively on men and women for over ten years. 

Nurse Ginger is known throughout the Bay Area for her ability to completely remove unwanted hair on patients who have been to other hair removal clinics and not received the results they wanted. In addition, the Candela Laser Hair Removal system used at L&P Aesthetics is safe for all skin types, including darker tones.

“Say goodbye to razor rash, ingrown hairs, and stubble, and throw the razor away forever,” says Nurse Ginger. “My patients love that once they get laser hair removal, they rarely have to worry about shaving, waxing, threading, or tweezing ever again.”

What Happens During Laser Hair Removal?

At L&P Aesthetics, laser hair removal treatments begin with in-depth consultations, where expert providers with specialized knowledge in laser technology, skin types, and hair growth cycles evaluate your skin and hair type to determine the best laser hair removal approach for your specialized treatments. Sessions typically last between 15 and 60 minutes, depending on the area being treated. 

Best Areas to Treat with Laser Hair Removal

At L&P Aesthetics, we treat any part of the body that has hair, as long as the hair follicle is dark in color. Patients can start seeing results after the first treatment (10-25% hair growth reduction) as the hairs become finer and less dense. To see full results, we recommend ten to twelve treatments spaced four to six weeks apart. After finishing treatments, most patients see no unwanted hair on the treated skin for several months or even year-long periods. The best, and most common, laser hair removal areas include:

  • Full face 
    • Including the upper lip and chin
  • Ears
  • Chest or back
  • Arms
  • Underarms
  • Legs
  • Bikini area 
  • Buttocks
  • Toes & feet
  • Back of the neck/hairline

Best Laser Hair Removal Benefits

In addition to never having to worry about shaving, ingrown hairs, or unsightly hair patches, there are other benefits of laser hair removal:

  • It is non-invasive and non-surgical
  • Skin is smoother and softer after treatment
  • Comprehensive in its ability to target large areas of hair across all skin tones
  • Zero downtime and no lingering discomfort
  • Treatments are fast, easy, and almost 100% painless 
    • Patients describe the experience of each laser pulse as a mild snap from a rubber band, followed by a blast of cold air
  • Time and cost-efficient

*Results and patient experiences will vary.

Before and After Laser Hair Removal Care

Before treatment, avoid direct, prolonged sun exposure for two weeks prior to your appointment. Patients arrive having freshly shaved the treatment area, but do not wax or tweeze for at least six weeks leading up to the appointment. 

No downtime is required after laser hair removal treatments, though patients may experience some mild redness or sensitivity temporarily. After treatment, patients should avoid excessively hot showers, saunas, and excessive sweating for 24 to 48 hours post-treatment. Patients should also avoid direct sun exposure while moisturizing and applying sunscreen daily. Waxing, plucking, or using depilatory creams between sessions is discouraged.
