At Lavish Beauty, prices start at $25 for small areas like upper lip or chin. Popular areas include underarms at $85, Brazilian at $150, full legs at $200, and full body at $499 per session. Transparent pricing with no hidden fees.

We keep payment simple and flexible: every area is priced per session, so you can pay as you go from just $25 with no contracts or financing required. Multi-session packages are also available if you prefer to prepay your series. Your journey begins with a $10 consultation, credited toward your first treatment.

Laser hair removal provides long-term reduction. After 6-8 sessions at our Calgary clinic, most clients enjoy lastingly smooth skin, with any regrowth dramatically finer and sparser — results vary from person to person. Some fine or hormonal hair may regrow over time, addressed with occasional maintenance once or twice a year. Results are dramatically superior to shaving or waxing.

Yes. Our GentleMax Pro features a 1064nm Nd:YAG wavelength specifically designed for darker skin tones (Fitzpatrick IV-VI), bypassing skin melanin to target only the hair follicle. Combined with the 755nm Alexandrite for lighter skin, we safely and effectively treat every complexion.

Most clients need 6-8 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Hair grows in cycles and the laser can only target follicles during the active growth phase. Multiple sessions ensure we treat each follicle during its cycle. Your consultation includes a personalized treatment plan based on your area, hair type, and skin tone.

Most clients describe it as surprisingly comfortable. The GentleMax Pro features a built-in Dynamic Cooling Device that sprays cryogen milliseconds before each pulse, protecting skin and minimizing discomfort. Most say it feels like a quick, warm snap — far less painful than waxing.

The Candela GentleMax Pro is the gold standard in laser hair removal. Its dual wavelengths (755nm Alexandrite for lighter skin, 1064nm Nd:YAG for darker skin) treat every skin tone safely. Built-in Dynamic Cooling Device ensures comfort. Adjustable spot sizes allow precision across all body areas.

We defer laser hair removal during pregnancy. While there is no evidence of harm, no clinical studies have established safety for expectant mothers, so we take the cautious route and pause treatments until after your baby arrives. Pregnancy hormones can also temporarily change hair growth patterns, so waiting protects your results too. If you become pregnant mid-series, just let us know — we will pause your plan and pick up where you left off when you are ready. Our full guide to laser hair removal during pregnancy and breastfeeding covers timing, breastfeeding, and safe alternatives in the meantime.

Yes — shaving is the only hair removal method you should use between sessions. Shaving trims the hair at the surface while leaving the root intact for the laser to target at your next appointment. Never wax, pluck, thread, or epilate between sessions, as these methods pull out the root the laser needs to disable that follicle.

Winter is the ideal season to start laser in Calgary. Your skin is at its lightest, daily sun exposure is minimal, and staying out of UV before and after each session is effortless when it is -20 outside. Begin a 6-8 session series in fall or winter and you will be enjoying smooth, low-maintenance skin by patio season. That said, any season works with good SPF discipline — apply SPF 30+ daily, avoid tanning for 2 weeks before each session, and keep treated areas covered during Calgary's intense summer UV.

Shave the treatment area 12-24 hours before your appointment so the laser's energy reaches the root instead of the hair above the skin. Avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, and self-tanner for 2 weeks beforehand, and stop waxing, plucking, or threading the area at least 4 weeks before — the follicle must be intact for the laser to disable it. Arrive with clean skin, free of lotion, deodorant, or makeup on the treatment area, and pause retinol products for about a week before your session.

Side effects are typically minimal and short-lived. Most clients notice mild redness and slight swelling around the treated follicles — similar to a light sunburn — that settles within a few hours. Dermatologists note that rarer effects such as blistering or temporary pigment changes are usually linked to recent sun exposure or inexperienced providers. We minimize risk with the GentleMax Pro's Dynamic Cooling Device, wavelength selection matched to your skin tone, and clear aftercare: avoid sun, heat, and strenuous exercise for 24-48 hours and apply SPF 30+ daily.
