Underarm laser hair removal.
The fastest appointment in the studio and usually the fastest area to respond. Underarm hair is coarse and densely pigmented, which is exactly what the laser is best at finding — most clients see a real difference by the third session.
Five minutes, twice a season.
It is a small area with thick hair, so it treats quickly and responds well. It is also where shaving causes the most irritation, because the skin is thin, folded and in constant contact with deodorant.
The five-minute appointment.
Shave both underarms the night before. Arrive with clean, dry skin and no deodorant, antiperspirant or lotion on the area — product on the surface interferes with the applicator and can cause irritation.
You raise one arm at a time and Sukh works the cooled applicator across the area in a few passes. The whole thing is over in about five minutes. It is the treatment most clients use to decide whether they want to commit to a larger area.
Mild pinkness for an hour or two is normal. Skip deodorant, the gym and hot showers for twenty-four hours; after that, back to normal.
Treated hairs shed over one to three weeks. Book four to five weeks apart — underarm hair cycles faster than leg hair, so this is one area where the shorter gap genuinely matters.
Drag the slider.
A Georgetown client after five sessions. Coarse underarm hair typically responds faster than fine hair elsewhere.
Underarm pricing.
Prices are per session. Combining areas is usually cheaper than booking them separately — the Full Body package at $200 covers face, arms, legs, underarms and Brazilian together.
About underarms.
Can I wear deodorant afterwards? +
Leave it off for twenty-four hours. Freshly treated follicles are open and antiperspirant is the most common cause of post-session irritation in this area.
Will it stop me sweating? +
No — laser hair removal does not affect sweat glands. What many clients notice is less odour, because hair holds moisture and bacteria against the skin.
Why do underarms work so well? +
The laser targets melanin in the hair. Underarm hair is coarse and heavily pigmented, so it absorbs more energy per pulse and the follicle is disabled more reliably than with fine hair.
Does it hurt in such a sensitive spot? +
It is a thin-skinned area, so it registers more than the leg — but the chilled sapphire tip stays in contact throughout, and at five minutes it is over before most clients settle in.
I get ingrown hairs and dark patches under my arms. +
Both usually improve. The ingrowns stop as follicles are removed. Darkening left over from years of shaving and irritation fades more slowly, since that is pigment rather than hair.
Can I do underarms only? +
Absolutely, and many clients do exactly that as a first treatment. There is no requirement to buy a package or add other areas.
