Frequently Asked Questions

​

How does Cynosure Elite+ Laser Hair Removal work?

The Elite+ uses advanced laser light to target the pigment in the hair follicle.

The energy heats and disables the follicle, reducing future growth while leaving surrounding skin unharmed.

​

Is the treatment painful?

​

Most clients describe the sensation as a quick, warm ‘ping’. The Elite+ system is designed for comfort, and sessions are much more tolerable than waxing.

​

How many sessions will I need?

​

Typically 6–8 sessions, spaced 4–6 weeks apart, depending on the area, skin type, and hair growth cycle.

​

Is it safe for all skin types?

​

Yes, the Elite+ includes both Alexandrite and Nd:YAG wavelengths, allowing safe and effective treatment across a broad range of skin tones.

​

When will I see results?

​

You’ll usually see a noticeable reduction after the first 1–3 sessions, with results improving throughout your course.

​

Can I shave between treatments?

​

Yes, shaving is absolutely fine. You must avoid waxing, plucking, or threading during your course.

​

Pre-Treatment Care

​

To ensure the best results:

  • Shave the area 24 hours before your appointment

  • Avoid sun exposure or tanning beds for 2–4 weeks prior

  • Do not use fake tan for 2 weeks

  • Avoid waxing or plucking for 4 weeks

  • Avoid strong acids/retinoids on the treatment area for 3–5 days

​

Post-Treatment Care

  • Apply soothing aloe vera or a post-laser gel if needed

  • Avoid exercise, saunas, hot baths, or heat exposure for 24–48 hours

  • Keep the area clean and avoid fragranced products for 24 hours

  • Avoid sun exposure and use SPF 30–50 on exposed areas

  • Exfoliate gently after 5–7 days to help prevent ingrown hairs
