Clients’ Images of Laser Hair Removal in Toronto
There is absolutely no reason to keep using razor to shave your body over an over again. Permanently remove all hair without irritation and razor cuts.
Laser Epilation Process
Personal Discussion with Aesthetician
Before scheduling your first appointment for laser hair epilating we strongly recommend talking to Nova aesthetician about your skin, types of lasers we use and other details that will help our clients selecting the best path.
Our consultation is free and you will benefit from it not only by learning more about your skin, but also getting ready with the preparation for first and upcoming laser hair removal procedures.
Unfortunately there are situation when we do not recommend our clients using laser due to pregnancy, damaged skin, tattoo, open wound or other conditions.
Right then we can select the best day for first visit and schedule your permanent laser hair removal course.
What to Expect & Not To Do Prior
Although your appointment is scheduled there things client may do for smoother and better results during laser hair removal procedure.
Typically we give hand outs and explain best practices for pretreatment. On top of that our Aesthetician explains things to avoid and if things turn to worse how to reschedule the visit.
First and by far most important recommendation is to take care of your skin. Make sure it is not damaged, tanned or wounded. Laser can damage it even more by penetrating and tightening skin around the wound.
Another suggestion is to properly shave prior to laser hair removal, but avoid any chemical peels or waxes that are harmful and can hang longer healing time.
First Time for Laser Epilation
Depending on which part of the body you selected for laser hair removal Toronto services with Nova Med Spa, initial session can take from 15 to 60 minutes. Please come in time so aesthetician does not have to rush and properly use the laser on you.
Our most popular package is full body hair removal with Alexandrite laser, but it can be as little as full legs, bikini area or just a face job.
There may be uncomfortable feeling after first laser procedure but it is not painful at all, and will go away shortly.
Our professionals will provide post treatment instructions and recommendations for moisturizing or taking care of your skin with creams in between sessions.
Permanent Hair Epilation with Laser
Laser hair removal is a long procedure that requires dedication, which our team can help with by adjusting schedule around your vacation and other life events, following up to make sure you don’t forget and help prepare your skin better for laser session.
Although rarely, but some clients do complete full course just in 6-7 sessions. More commonly it takes closer to 8-10 sessions because of wrinkled skin, occasional tanning during the course, carefully working around skin marks and moles.
It is suggested to complete all laser epilation Toronto sessions at one location due to laser type and aesthetician than know your skin. Let us know if you cannot make next laser hair removal appointment ahead of time for suggestions and rescheduling.
What Happens After Full Course?
It is called permanent laser epilation, but follow ups are required after completion of course. Depending on your skin and lifestyle, it can be annual or biannual visits for additional treatment with analysis.
Typically 95% to 98% of all existing hair that is treated during the course is eliminated and permanently stops growth. All medical spas (as well as Nova) recommend follow up laser procedure to hair that has been missed or not yet permanently removed.
New hair may also appear meanwhile, which is a very small percentage to what you currently have and can be removed with one follow up procedures. Our aesthetician will keep your contact and call you ahead of time to schedule.

Who Does Laser Procedures?
At Nova Medical Spa laser procedures are done by trained aestheticians and nurses that have completed specialized courses and machine specific training.
Potential Side Effects
Laser hair removal is an effective way to remove unwanted hair on the body without leaving any damage to the skin. Sometimes, patients with high sensitivity may feel redness or irritation in the epilation area.
The thinner the skin, the greater the chance of irritation and redness. Sensitive areas are the upper lip; fingers and toes; bikini area; ankles. These symptoms are rare and disappear within a few hours.
Patients with sensitive skin may sometimes experience mild discomfort and pain during the procedure. At your initial consultation in Nova Medical Spa you will receive recommendations on how to prepare for the procedure in order to avoid any pain symptoms in future.
All our specialists are highly qualified and will select the necessary power of the hair removal device.
In rare cases, after laser hair removal, a side effect such as hyperpigmentation may occur. It can be either temporary or permanent, depending on the individual characteristics of the skin.
You should properly protect your skin from sun rays and apply cream with SPF protection and follow the instructions of a specialist to minimize the risk of pigmentation. If you have pigmentation, be sure to tell your specialist.
A potential side effect of laser hair removal is discoloration. After laser hair removal, they may become one tone darker or lighter. People with fair skin may experience a side effect after Toronto laser hair removal in the form of hyperpigmentation.
Here it is important to trust a professional specialist who will choose the correct laser calibration. And the patient needs maximum skin protection from the sun.
Burns usually appear in two cases: if the patient did not follow the rules from the specialist before and after the procedure. On the other hand, if the session was carried out by a master without proper qualifications. If a minor burn occurs, panthenol can be used.
If the burn is very painful, it is highly recommended to consult a specialist immediately.
Infections after a laser procedure is a rare side effect. Here it is important to be attentive to both the specialist and the patient. If you have any wounds or scratches on the skin, please inform the specialist before the procedure begins.
Therefore, it is very important to carefully examine the skin for damage before the procedure and if there are any complaints, it is better to postpone the procedure.
Laser hair removal has become one of the most popular hair removal methods in recent years. This procedure is quite quick, painless and removes unwanted hair on the body. There are several different types of laser hair removal, such as: Alexandrite laser, Diode laser, Nd:YAG laser, Ruby laser, Intense Pulsed Light (IPL).
Each laser has its own advantages and disadvantages. To choose the appropriate type of laser and how many procedures you need to undergo, you should consult with your specialist. Based on your skin type, hair, pigmentation, and hair removal area, the specialist will recommend which type of laser is best for you. For quicker sessions and better results, we recommend Alexandrite Laser.
Laser machines have been around for more than 60 years with primary purpose of treating scars and removing tattoos. In 1995 FDA (in USA) has approved lasers for permanent hair removal and few years later medical spas business has started growth and popularity.
Europe and Canada bounced of similar regulations and provisions, adopting laser epilation business into the market.
For over 30 years of laser hair removal in Toronto the rules have become stricter and manufactured lasers are safer every year. Machines used by Nova are the safest on the market with the best results.
Previously, Alexandrite laser hair removal in Toronto was working good only on light skin with darker hair. Other types of lasers may have had some effect on all skins, but results were not great. With progress in technology, latest models of lasers have amazing effect with any and all types of skin.
Nova Medical Spa has list of situations when we cannot take patience for laser hair removal, but it has nothing to do with color of skin. Schedule free consultation prior to booking treatment if you have concerns and need to know more information on post and pretreatment recommendations.
Two specific areas that we have to avoid laser treatment for are around vaginal tissue and on eyes. With experience and thousands of procedural work we can safely work around those areas and make sure our clients are completely safe when epilating hair.
We understand that it is hard to spot, but thick ingrown hairs are not suggested to have laser over them. It can harm more and create a wound under the skin.
Overall damaged skin, scars burns and open wounds cannot have laser hair removal over them. Ask our staff for more information.
If we are talking about single area of the body that is most popular for laser hair removal Toronto treatment, it is most certainly bikini zone.
Underarms, legs, back and face are somewhat similar in terms of popularity and stand right after bikini area. These treatments are selected by all genders and at Nova Medical Spa we welcome all clients for hair epilation and skin rejuvenation.
However, the most selected package by Nova customers is full body laser hair removal. Full treatment is a combination of body zones, which can be done for much less than doing each zone separately.
There are several manufacturers that are top rated in the world and most Medical Spas use them for providing laser hair removal services. These are:
- Candela
- Cynosure
- Deka
Nova Medical Spa at the moment works with Candela and our preferred laser machine for hair epilation is GenteMax Pro Plus. This system is the newest on the market and has many options for strength, wavelength and repetition, which helps with different color and sensitivity of skin.
Gentle Max Pro Plus has an option of Alexandrite laser, which is most effective for laser hair removal with all newest safety option from world known manufacturer.
There are several situations when it is not recommended or even prohibited to do laser hair removal.
After getting tan or sun burn – please avoid having treatments at least 4 weeks after sunny vacation as your skin heals.
When pregnant – lasers can be harmful to developing baby and we strongly recommend avoiding scheduling and appoint for similar services.
Damaged skin or medical condition – open wounds and skin conditions should not be treated with laser for any procedures.
Nova Medical Spa has hand out and sends email recommendations for how to prepare and what to avoid before your scheduled laser hair removal session.
Laser hair removal is a complex procedure that requires certification and training of specific equipment. If you are a licensed aesthetician, than technically you can buy or rent a laser and perform sessions on yourself, even though it will be extremely uncomfortable.
Lasers are extremely expensive to buy, rent and maintain. It will be much less expensive and safer to schedule sessions at professional medical spa such as Nova, than trying to do it at home.
For more than 30 years, medical spas around the world have been practicing laser hair removal simply because it is more effective than razor hair removal.
Razors only remove upper portion of hair, which has temporary result and hair immediately starts growing again. Within days you will feel it again.
Laser Epilation works completely different. The whole purpose of laser is to target lower part of pair and to permanently damage it to stop hair growth. Do not be afraid as it is completely safe for skin and layers under it.
Nova Medical Spa recommends biannual follow up laser hair removal sessions after completion of course to keep looking beautiful and removing those new hairs that appear during that time. Unfortunately our body produces new hair follicles that laser hair machine need to treat. (Besides those that are permanently removed during the course)
Some client may need to revisit medical spa only once a year as their follicles are less produced and no hair appears for first six month. We have no way of finding it out only recommend contacting us for recommendation six month after completion of hair removal course.
The minimum recommended age by Nova Medical Spa to book a hair removal treatment is 18 years old. Only legal adults are allowed to visit medical spas alone and be treated for skin rejuvenation and laser hair removal.
There are of course instances when we allow younger clients, which have to be accompanied by parents with additional documentation to be signed.
Laser hair removal for teens can be done due to medical condition, pre or post medical procedures, presentational hair removal for audition or contests.
Please avoid booking sessions online for clients under 18 years old and schedule by phone or in person.
Nova Medical Spa recommends laser hair removal sessions every 4 to 6 weeks until full course is completed (that requires 6 to 10 sessions). There are obviously instances that can force you to reschedule appointments during the course.
If you go on vacation and get tanned just before scheduled session, get sick, busy with work or other things, we will try to reschedule your next laser hair removal sessions within next several weeks, so it does not affect overall results.
Please let us know ahead of time if your timelines are changing so we can stay on top of it.
Typically it takes 6 to 10 sessions to fully epilate hair with our Alexandrite Laser. After the treatment is completed there may be little hair growth form newly formed follicle. Nova Medical Spa recommends visiting us twice a year for making sure your skin is perfectly smooth by neutralizing what may come up.
Number of sessions depends on your skin, amount of hair you have, proper pre and post treatment, skin sensitivity and several other factors.
During initial consultation, our aesthetician can give you more accurate estimate on amount of sessions you should expect to fully complete the course of laser hair removal.
Consultation is the most preferred way of starting with Nova Med Spa. During that we can suggest all the ways we can help with desired outcome and give a handout that outlines recommended pre session instructions.
There is a long “Do Not” list that we can share, but to summarize it all, avoid tanning, waxing, and other skin treatments prior to coming for laser hair removal Toronto session.
Proper shaving is recommended, because longer hairs are harder to treat with laser and you may end up having more sessions for full completion.
There may be low level of pain, but it is not as some of us imagine. It is very easily tolerable and if any of our clients have more sensitive skin, ask aesthetician to treat it as such. Our lasers can be easily adjusted to provide less power for beams that target your hairs. With less effective beams it will still work, but more sessions may be required to complete full course of laser hair removal in Toronto.
Inexperienced aestheticians, inadequate use of equipment or older version of machinery may cause micro burns that are obviously more painful. Nova Medical Spa is avoiding all above stated for the most comfortable treatments with great results for our clients.
In simple words Laser Machine releases a long beam of laser that affects the hair. It is strong and focused on (papilla) base of hair, after damaging which, hair stops growing completely.
Instead of burning and cutting top of hair, the focus of laser hair removal machine is to permanently stop the reoccurrence of growth. Your body may reproduce them gradually which is easily controlled by refreshment procedures that Nova Med Spa provides.
Within 6 to 8 treatments you will complete the full course and will only need biannual refreshment procedures. Take a look at our before and after examples to understand the results you can expect.
