Brazilian Laser Hair Removal
Brazilian Laser Hair Removal
Additional Benefits
Many clients notice fewer ingrown hairs, less irritation from shaving, smoother skin texture, and reduced shadowing in the bikini area over time.
Our clients also appreciate the convenience of reduced daily shaving and smoother skin year-round.
Treatment Scope
At this time, Brazilian laser hair removal is offered exclusively for clients with female anatomy.
This policy is based on the specialized training and scope of practice of our current providers.
How Many Brazilian Laser Hair Removal Sessions Are Needed?
Most clients require a series of 6 to 12 treatments to achieve significant hair reduction.
Because hair grows in cycles, multiple sessions are necessary to effectively target follicles during their active growth phase.
The number of treatments needed varies based on factors including hair color and density, genetics, hormonal influences, treatment consistency, and individual response. Some clients may require additional treatments or periodic maintenance sessions.
During your complimentary consultation with test patches, we will discuss a treatment plan based on your hair growth patterns, skin type, and goals.
Does Brazilian Laser Hair Removal Hurt?
Most clients describe Brazilian laser hair removal as a brief snapping sensation against the skin.
Sensitivity varies from person to person and can also depend on the treatment area and hair density.
At Beam Laser Spa, treatments are performed using Candela GentleMax Pro Plus technology with Dynamic Cooling Device (DCD) technology, which delivers a brief burst of cryogen to help cool and protect the skin during treatment.
Many clients find the treatment more comfortable than waxing and appreciate the long-term reduction in shaving and ingrown hairs.
Is Brazilian Laser Hair Removal Safe for Dark Skin?
Laser hair removal can be performed safely on a wide range of skin tones when the appropriate technology and settings are used.
Beam Laser Spa utilizes both Alexandrite and Nd:YAG wavelengths through our Candela GentleMax Pro Plus platforms.
During your consultation, your skin type and hair characteristics are evaluated to determine the safest and most effective treatment approach.
Treating darker skin tones requires experience, appropriate settings, and a laser system equipped with a 1064 nm Nd:YAG wavelength.
The providers at Beam Laser Spa have performed laser hair removal treatments on clients across the Fitzpatrick skin type spectrum, up to and including skin type 6.
How to Prepare for Your Brazilian Laser Hair Removal Appointment
For the safest and most effective treatment:
- Shave the treatment area 24 hours before your appointment.
- Avoid waxing, tweezing, epilating or any other root removal method for at least eight weeks before treatment.
- Avoid tanning (including self-tanner and spray tans) and recent sun exposure.
- Inform your provider about any medications, topical products (prescribed or OTC), supplements, or recent cosmetic procedures.
Following these guidelines helps the laser effectively target the hair while reducing the risk of unnecessary skin irritation.
What to Expect After Treatment
Mild redness and temporary sensitivity are common immediately following treatment and typically resolve within several hours.
Some clients may experience perifollicular edema, a temporary response that appears as small red bumps surrounding treated follicles. This is a common temporary response following laser hair removal and typically resolves on its own.
Over the following one to three weeks, treated hairs gradually shed from the skin.
Consistent treatment intervals are important because laser hair removal is most effective when treatable hairs are targeted during active growth phases. Your provider will recommend treatment timing based on the area and your individual response.

Full face laser hair removal at Beam Laser Spa in Midtown Manhattan provides long-term reduction of unwanted facial hair across multiple treatment areas in one appointment. The service includes the upper lip, chin, sideburns, cheeks, and jawline; the neck is treated separately. Treatment is customized according to skin tone, hair characteristics, growth pattern, and individual goals.
Laser hair removal uses light absorbed by pigment in the hair to heat and damage the follicle, reducing its ability to produce new hair. At Beam, we use Candela GentleMax Pro Plus technology and select settings for your skin tone, hair characteristics, and treatment area. The goal is long-term hair reduction. A series is needed because hairs grow in different cycles, and results vary. Your complimentary consultation and test patch help us assess whether the hair you want to treat is a suitable target.
You may feel a brief hot snap with each pulse. Sensitivity varies by area, hair density, and the individual; laser hair removal is not completely painless. Candela’s Dynamic Cooling Device sprays cooling cryogen to help protect the skin and reduce discomfort. At Beam, we allow time for careful coverage, pauses, and adjustments to your comfort. Tell your specialist how the treatment feels so we can respond appropriately.
Many Beam clients need approximately 6–12 sessions per area, but that is an estimate rather than a guarantee. Hair thickness and color, the treatment area, hormones, medications, and individual response all affect your plan. Some areas need more sessions or ongoing maintenance. We assess your progress throughout the series. A six-session package is a purchasing option, not a promise that six visits will finish treatment.
Hair follicles are not all in the same growth phase at once. Laser treatment is most effective when suitable hairs are in active growth, so one appointment cannot target every follicle equally. Spacing sessions allows us to treat additional hairs as they become suitable targets. We plan the interval around the area, your regrowth, and your response rather than treating every body part on the same schedule.
Appointment length depends on the area and whether you are treating several areas together. Smaller areas may be scheduled for around 15–30 minutes, while larger areas can take up to an hour or longer for combined services. Check the relevant treatment page for the scheduled duration. At Beam, appointment time includes careful coverage and attention to your comfort. We will confirm the time needed when you book.
Temporary redness, warmth, and small raised bumps around follicles can occur after treatment. Reactions vary and may last longer on sensitive skin. Redness is not required for a treatment to work, and severe pain, blistering, or worsening irritation should not be dismissed as normal. Possible risks include burns, changes in skin color, scarring, and increased hair growth in some treated areas. Our consultation, test patch, protective eyewear, and individualized settings help us assess and manage risk. Contact Beam promptly about unexpected or persistent symptoms.
