How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?
Laser hair removal works by focusing on your hair follicles. Hairs contain a pigment called melanin that gives them their color. The laser targets melanin pigments, heating the root of the hair, so it damages the follicle. These deactivated follicles will no longer grow hair. At Albuquerque Vein & Laser Institute, we use the Harmony® XL Pro laser system for maximum results in fewer treatments.
How Much is Laser Hair Removal?
Costs for laser hair removal will vary widely. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons found the average cost to be $389 per session. Your final price will depend on:
- Your location
- Your provider
- The area being treated
- The number of treatments needed
- Any other associated fees
