Underarms
This fast, popular area saves you from underarm razor burn for good.
Laser hair removal at Lazaderm in Fargo trades razors, wax appointments and ingrown bumps for a series of quick sessions with high-end laser technology.
Laser works anywhere that hair grows, from a two-minute touch-up to a full-body plan. The areas Fargo patients ask about most include:
This fast, popular area saves you from underarm razor burn for good.
We treat full or lower legs, freeing you up from your shaving routine and razor budget.
Clean, precise and far gentler over time than waxing or repeated irritation.
Soft, targeted treatment for the spots that need the most upkeep.
A commonly requested area for men, with a highly customizable treatment area for specific requests.
Thin out or clear coarse hair for a smoother, lower-maintenance look.
Even, natural reduction without the stubble-and-regrow cycle.
Tidy the hairline and the back of the neck between haircuts for good.

Hair grows in cycles, and the laser only treats follicles that are actively growing hair. A full plan at 45th Street will include several sessions spaced a few weeks apart. Each treatment catches a new batch of follicles until the hair that is left is sparse and fine. Shave the area the day before and skip waxing and plucking for four weeks before the first session, as well as in between.

You’ll feel quick, warm snaps as the laser device works. The discomfort of this is reduced by the cooling tip, and some areas are more sensitive than others. You can go back to your day without recovery time, though you can expect some redness.

Keep your skin out of the sun as it heals and avoid hot temperatures like the sauna or hot showers for a couple of days. Your hair may get longer at first as it works its way out before shedding. After each round, you will have less hair until the area is smooth and hair-free.
Fall and winter are great seasons for starting laser hair removal. A full series takes about three months, and the skin heals best when it stays out of the sun. Both of these make the colder months a good time to start a series of laser hair removal sessions so you can have smooth, hair-free skin by summer. However, we can start laser hair removal sessions any time of the year.
Because our Fargo clinic uses more than one laser, including an Nd:YAG that’s safe for darker skin types and persons of color, we can treat the full range of complexions. However, this is not the case for all hair colors. The laser needs pigment to find the follicle, so very blond, red, white or gray hair won’t respond well. We’ll tell you all of this up front at your consultation.
Shave the area the day before your visit, and avoid waxing, plucking or threading for about four weeks ahead of time so the follicle still has hair. Avoid sun exposure and self-tanner beforehand, and don’t use any products that will increase your sensitivity to light or cause skin irritation. Your provider will go over anything specific to your treatment area when you book.
