Choosing Your Laser Hair Removal Plan
How your skin, hair and treatment area guide a personalized laser hair removal plan.
Laser hair removal begins with a skin-and-hair assessment. Your skin tone, hair color, hair thickness and treatment area help determine whether treatment is appropriate and how your plan is calibrated.
Looking for the treatment itself? See our Laser Hair Removal in San Antonio — THEIA page for pricing guidance, protocol details and booking.
A personalized assessment
At consultation, review your skin type, hair color and thickness, medical history and treatment goals with your provider.
Settings and cooling are calibrated to your skin and treatment area. Ask what your plan involves before committing to a series.
Skin and hair suitability
Suitability depends on the contrast between skin and hair, your skin tone and your medical history. Very light hair may respond differently from dark hair.
Your provider assesses these factors individually and discusses alternatives when treatment is not appropriate.
