Laser Hair Removal
Unwanted hair shouldn’t be something you have to think about every day. If you’re constantly shaving, waxing, or dealing with irritation and ingrown hairs, laser hair removal in Mt. Laurel, NJ offers a long-term solution designed for real life. At South Jersey Skin Care, we use advanced Excel HR™ technology to safely and effectively reduce hair growth across multiple areas—so you can spend less time maintaining your skin and more time enjoying it. In 2026, more patients than ever are choosing laser hair removal for its convenience, consistency, and confidence-boosting results.
Managing unwanted hair can feel like a never-ending routine. Shaving, waxing, and plucking take time—and often lead to irritation, razor burn, and ingrown hairs. Laser hair removal offers a smarter alternative.
This non-invasive treatment reduces hair growth at the source, helping you achieve smoother skin with far less upkeep. Common treatment areas include:
- Face (upper lip, chin)
- Underarms
- Bikini or Brazilian
- Legs and arms
- Back and chest
With each session, hair becomes finer, lighter, and less noticeable—making daily grooming a thing of the past.

Why Laser Hair Removal Is the Smarter Alternative to Shaving and Waxing
While traditional methods may seem convenient, they come with hidden costs—both financially and in time.
Laser hair removal is an investment that pays off long-term.
Instead of repeatedly buying razors or booking waxing appointments, you benefit from lasting hair reduction. Patients also notice:
- Fewer ingrown hairs
- Less skin irritation
- Smoother texture overall
- Reduced need for daily maintenance
It’s not just about removing hair—it’s about simplifying your routine.
How Laser Hair Removal Works
Laser hair removal uses targeted light energy to focus on pigment within the hair follicle.
That energy converts to heat, which damages the follicle and disrupts future growth—without harming surrounding skin.
Because hair grows in cycles, multiple sessions are required to treat follicles during their active growth phase. Over time, this leads to significant, long-term reduction.
For patients of any skin type looking to reduce unwanted hair of any color, sweat, and odor simultaneously (in the underarm area only), we offer the miraDry®/miraSmooth™ system.
What Areas Can Be Treated with Laser Hair Removal?
One of the biggest advantages of laser hair removal is its versatility.
It can be performed on nearly any area of the body where unwanted hair is present. Popular treatment zones include:
- Upper lip and chin
- Underarms
- Bikini line
- Legs
- Arms
- Back
- Chest
- Fingers and toes
This flexibility allows patients to customize treatments based on their goals and lifestyle.
Is Laser Hair Removal Safe for All Skin Types? (Excel HR™ Explained)
At South Jersey Skin Care, we use the Excel HR™ system by Cutera—an advanced dual- wavelength laser platform.
This technology combines:
- Alexandrite laser (ideal for lighter skin tones)
- Nd:YAG laser (safe for deeper skin tones)
Because of this versatility, laser hair removal can be safely tailored to a wide range of skin types using the Fitzpatrick scale.
Your provider will customize settings based on your skin tone, hair type, and treatment goals to ensure both safety and effectiveness.
How to Prepare for Laser Hair Removal for Best Results
Proper preparation plays a key role in achieving optimal results.
Before your treatment, you may be advised to:
- Avoid sun exposure and tanning
- Stop waxing, plucking, or electrolysis
- Shave the treatment area prior to your session
- Avoid certain medications that increase sensitivity
Keeping the hair follicle intact is essential, since that’s what the laser targets.
Your provider will guide you through every step to ensure your skin is ready.

How Many Laser Hair Removal Sessions Will You Need?
Because hair grows in cycles, multiple sessions are necessary for best results.
Most patients require:
- 6 to 9 sessions on average
- Treatments spaced several weeks apart
Each session builds on the last, progressively reducing hair density and thickness.
Consistency is key to achieving smooth, long-lasting results.

Many patients notice improvements after their first session.
Over time, treated hair becomes:
- Thinner
- Lighter

Full results develop gradually, with optimal outcomes visible after completing your treatment series.
While occasional maintenance sessions may be recommended, the reduction achieved is long-lasting and highly effective.

Laser Hair Removal FAQs
The cost of laser hair removal depends on the size of the treatment area, the number of sessions needed, and your personalized treatment plan.
Smaller areas like the upper lip are typically less expensive, while larger areas like the legs or back require more time and sessions. During your consultation, we provide clear, customized pricing so you know exactly what to expect.
Yes—this is one of the biggest benefits of laser hair removal.
By targeting the hair follicle directly, the treatment reduces the likelihood of hairs growing back improperly under the skin. This helps minimize ingrown hairs, razor bumps, and post-shave irritation.
Many patients choose laser hair removal specifically for smoother, irritation-free skin.
Laser hair removal requires little to no downtime.
You may experience mild redness or sensitivity immediately after treatment, but this typically resolves within a few hours. Most patients return to normal daily activities right away.
It’s usually recommended to avoid intense workouts, heat, and sweating for 24 hours after treatment.
This helps prevent irritation and allows your skin to recover properly. Light activity is generally fine, but your provider will give you personalized aftercare instructions.
After your session, you’ll want to protect your skin and maximize results by avoiding direct sun exposure, hot showers, saunas, harsh skincare products, exfoliation, and tight or irritating clothing over treated areas.
Following these guidelines helps ensure safe healing and better outcomes.
Yes, laser hair removal can be performed year-round—but sun exposure must be managed carefully.
Fall and winter are often ideal times to start treatment because skin tends to be less sun-exposed. However, with proper sun protection, treatments can safely continue in any season.
Laser hair removal is often a great option for sensitive skin, especially compared to shaving or waxing.
Because it reduces the need for repeated friction and irritation, many patients with sensitive skin find it to be a more comfortable long-term solution.
Absolutely.
Laser hair removal is increasingly popular among men who want to reduce hair on areas such as the back, chest, neck, or beard line. It’s a practical solution for cleaner grooming and less maintenance.
Missing a session won’t ruin your results, but it can delay your progress.
Laser hair removal works best when treatments are timed to match hair growth cycles. Staying on schedule helps ensure each session is as effective as possible.
*Appointments canceled with less than 48 hours’ notice or missed without notice will result in the forfeiture of the session package and loss of deposit.
When performed correctly with advanced technology like Excel HR™, laser hair removal does not lighten or damage your natural skin tone.
The treatment is designed to selectively target pigment in the hair follicle—not the surrounding skin—when proper settings are used.
Yes—there’s no “wrong” time to start.
In fact, starting now means you’ll already be well into your treatment series by the time peak seasons arrive. Planning ahead is one of the smartest ways to maximize results.
Complementary Treatments for Smoother, Clearer Skin
South Jersey Skin Care & Laser Center offers a range of laser-based cosmetic dermatology treatments that can complement laser hair removal or be performed on their own. The heat energy of a laser can trigger skin tightening, skin resurfacing, and wrinkle reduction. With miraDry®, patients can enjoy reduced underarm odor and hair reduction since the treatment damages moisture-and odor-producing glands. The results are permanent.
Intense pulsed light (IPL) is not a laser but can be used in a similar way to clear sun/age spots and facial redness.
Patients seeking hair removal for fine vellus hairs can choose dermaplaning, which makes use of a surgical blade to remove peach fuzz along with dead skin cells.
