What it is
Laser hair removal uses concentrated light energy that targets melanin inside the hair follicle. The light converts to heat, damaging the follicle enough to prevent new hair growth. Each pulse treats multiple follicles simultaneously, and surrounding skin stays intact because the energy is selectively absorbed by the darker pigment.
Hair grows in cycles, and the laser only works on follicles in the active growth phase - about 20 to 30% at any time. That's why multiple sessions are needed. Our team treats virtually every area: face, underarms, bikini, legs, arms, back, chest, and more. Results are 70 to 90% long-term reduction after a full series, making laser hair removal denver residents seek out one of the more practical investments in a skincare routine.
Luxe Forté is located at 36 Steele St, Suite 100 in Cherry Creek - a convenient destination for laser hair removal denver patients arriving from Cherry Creek North, Country Club, Congress Park, Belcaro, Hilltop, Hale, Capitol Hill, Washington Park, and the broader Denver metro. Most clients are within a 10-minute drive, directly across from the Cherry Creek Shopping Center.
Many clients also explore related options such as CO2 Laser Resurfacing and IPL. For dosing, longevity, and aftercare in depth, see our Laser Hair Removal Guide.
What to expect
Sessions range from 15 minutes (upper lip) to about an hour (full legs). It feels like a quick snap or rubber band flick combined with warmth. Sensitive areas like bikini and upper lip feel more intense, but most people tolerate it well without numbing.
Within 1 to 2 weeks, treated hairs shed on their own. A full course is 6 to 8 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Avoid sun and tanning between sessions, as the laser targets pigment contrast between hair and skin.

Service FAQs
If you don't see your question, just reach out
Does laser hair removal work on all skin tones?
Modern laser technology - including the Nd:YAG and diode lasers we use at Luxe Forté - can safely and effectively treat a wide range of skin tones. During your consultation, we'll assess your skin type and select the optimal laser settings for safe, effective results.
What happens if I stop laser hair removal treatments midway?
Stopping treatment midway means the remaining untreated hairs in dormant growth cycles will continue growing. To achieve optimal permanent hair reduction, completing your full treatment series is important. Resuming treatments later allows completion of your planned sessions.
Can I use numbing cream before laser hair removal?
Some practices allow topical numbing creams before laser hair removal, though many find the treatment tolerable without anesthesia thanks to modern cooling technology. If you have a low pain tolerance, ask your provider about numbing options during your consultation. Some patients use ice packs or cooling gels beforehand, and your provider can also adjust laser settings to minimize discomfort. Communication with your provider helps ensure your treatment is as comfortable as possible while maintaining effectiveness.
How much does laser hair removal cost?
Laser hair removal pricing varies based on the size of the treatment area, your skin and hair type, and the number of sessions needed for optimal results. A single session might range from $100-$400 depending on area, while a full package of 6-8 sessions typically costs $500-$2,500+ per area. Many practices offer package discounts for committing to a full series, and financing options are often available. We recommend scheduling a consultation to receive a personalized quote based on your specific goals and needs.
Is IPL and laser hair removal the same thing?
CO2 laser is best suited for moderate to severe skin concerns including deep wrinkles, acne scars, severe sun damage, and skin texture irregularities. The treatment's intensity requires careful consideration of your skin type, healing capacity, and downtime tolerance. After your consultation, we'll recommend CO2 laser if it's the optimal choice or suggest alternative treatments if they better match your specific goals and skin condition.
Is laser hair removal safe for sensitive skin?
Yes, laser hair removal is generally safe for sensitive skin when performed by experienced professionals using appropriate laser settings and technology. Our team customizes the laser wavelength, power, and cooling settings to your specific skin type and sensitivity level, minimizing discomfort and irritation. Those with very sensitive skin or certain conditions like active eczema or open wounds should avoid treatment in those areas, but most people with sensitive skin can safely enjoy the benefits of permanent hair reduction.
What body areas can be treated with laser hair removal?
Laser hair removal can safely treat almost any body area, including the face, underarms, legs, bikini line, back, chest, arms, and more. Some areas are more sensitive than others, and the bikini line is among the most popular treatment zones. Facial hair removal requires extra precision to avoid damaging delicate skin, while larger body areas like full legs may require multiple passes for complete coverage.
How does laser hair removal permanently reduce hair?
Laser hair removal uses concentrated light absorbed by melanin in hair, creating heat that damages hair follicles. This prevents future hair growth from those follicles. Multiple sessions target hair in all growth cycles for long-lasting, permanent reduction.
