What the follicle?
Whether it’s your legs, underarms, face, or bikini line, the idea of never having to wax, shave, or tweeze again sounds like a dream. And thanks to laser hair removal, that dream is well within reach, especially if you live in or are visiting the gorgeous island of Tobago.
But before you let a laser near your skin, here are five things you absolutely need to know.
1. It’s Not a One-and-Done Deal
Laser hair removal isn’t magic. It’s science. And science takes time.
You’ll need multiple laser hair removal sessions to see long-term results. That’s because your hair grows in cycles, and lasers are only effective during the active growth phase. Most people require 6 to 8 treatments, spaced a few weeks apart.
If you’ve got a big event coming up, don’t wait till the last minute.
Pro tip: Book early. Our Candela GentleMax Pro sessions fill up fast. Clients come back because they see real results.
2. Not All Lasers Are Created Equal
Let’s be honest. Laser surgery for hair removal sounds intense. But in the hands of trained professionals, like our team, it’s safe, effective, and approved for use on all skin types.
The key is using the right technology. Our Candela GentleMax Pro combines dual wavelengths. This means we can target different skin tones and hair types effectively.
If a spa is still using outdated lasers, that’s a red flag.

3. You’ll Need to Prep Properly
Showing up with freshly waxed or plucked skin? That’s a no.
The laser targets the root of your hair, and if you’ve already pulled it out, the treatment won’t work as it should.
Here’s how to prep like a pro:
- Shave 24 hours before your appointment
- Avoid tanning or heavy sun exposure
- Skip retinol, acids, or exfoliants a few days before your session
Bonus tip: Aftercare is everything. Check out our COSMEDIX post-treatment skincare to keep your skin calm, smooth, and glowing.
4. It’s Not Just for Legs and Underarms
If you thought laser hair removal was only for your pits, think again. It works on:
- Chin and upper lip, also known as facial laser hair removal
- Bikini and Brazilian areas
- Back, chest, arms, and even toes
Whether you’re aiming for smooth skin or fewer ingrown hairs, hair reduction laser treatment can help.
5. Yes, It Works on Darker Skin
This one matters. There’s a myth that laser hair removal doesn’t work for darker skin. That’s false. The truth is, the results depend on the laser used.
Our GentleMax Pro is safe and effective for all skin types, including deeper complexions. No burns. No hyperpigmentation. Just smooth, clear results.
