Laser Hair Removal

For maximum results, you need to wait 6-8 weeks after waxing before beginning laser treatment. The laser targets the root of the hair so it’s got to grow back before we can point our laser beams at it. Shave all you want in the meantime (in fact, we encourage it). Listen, I know we usually preach against shaving, but sacrifices must be made for that out-of-this-world-smooth skin.

There are just a few things to keep in mind before having a visit with your Foxy Laser Technician:

1. Make sure your hair has had time to grow! We recommend 6-8 weeks after waxing or any hair removal method that pulls the hair from the root. Shave as much as you like in the meantime!
2. Stay out of the sun for 4 weeks prior. In fact, avoid anything that is going to tan your skin, including tanning beds and creams. Make sunscreen apart of your daily routine to help protect your skin!
3. Shave before your appointment. Our laser doesn’t target the hair itself, but the melanin in the hair follicle.
4. Come 10 minutes early. Our laser appointments are quick, which means we need to have everything completed, such as your intake form, before you head in! Come early, get settled, and enjoy a cup of tea or read through our “Gay Men Draw Vaginas” book – you definitely don’t want to miss out on that.

We get it. You busy babes have places to be! While the length of time for each area of the body is different, our services are still delivered the same way—fast and efficient. In fact, some areas can be completed in only a few minutes!

Since a Laser Underarm treatment, for example, only takes about 10 minutes, we ask that you please come 10 minutes early to ensure your intake form is complete and you are ready for your appointment.

There are many things that go into determining your eligibility for Laser, and the Vectus is a super versatile machine. We can treat nearly every skin tone!

With that in mind, your hair must have pigment to it. Extremely blonde, red, or grey hair cannot be effectively treated, as the melanin acts as the target. If your hair is lighter than your skin colour, you may not be a good candidate.

Like with any hair removal, laser treatments can be a touch on the uncomfortable side. Thanks to our laser’s new age cooling system, the laser hair reduction process is as painless as a laser can be. Some may describe the zaps as a small snap from an elastic band or as a quick heat sensation. Foxy Tip: We recommend avoiding the laser close to your period, as we’re all a bit more sensitive around that time of the month.

The average fox needs about 6 – 8 treatments to achieve desired results, with some foxes needing up to 10. You should see visible hair reduction after the first 1 or 2 treatments! Heck yes!

We have one of the best lasers in the galaxy, babe. This bad boy zaps away those unwanted hairs with 70%-90% hair reduction noticed after 6-8 sessions!

There are a few things that may cause regrowth, such as hormone changes (eg. pregnancy), however, on the whole, the process of laser is permanent! You can expect many follices to no longer produce any hair, while a few may only produce thin, light, virtually invisible hair.

No. Unfortunately you cannot. We want to look out for that beautiful skin of yours. Accutane causes the skin to become highly sensitive making you more susceptible to burns and irritation. We recommend that you have been off Accutane for a minimum of 6 months before beginning laser treatments.

Face treatments or products that includes retinols or AHAs and BHAs should be avoided for at least 4 weeks before treatment as well.

Although there is no documented clinical evidence of laser hair reduction being harmful to pregnant people, the body is going through significant hormonal changes. Hormones can cause hair to grow sporadically, making the laser treatments less effective. We recommend you wait until your body is back to its usual self before coming in for laser treatments.

Laser is similar to waxing in regards to aftercare. You should avoid excessive sweating, hot tubs, saunas, and direct sun exposure for the first 24 hours. After the first 24 hours, sun exposure should be limited as the melanin in your skin has been activated; It is recommended you stay out of the sun for 4 to 6 weeks following each treatment. If you are out and about, slather on that sunscreen and sport one of our Foxy Box caps – your skin will thank you!

We use the Vectus Laser by Cynosure! This machine uses a diode laser to cause permanent hair reduction by targeting the melanin in the follicle with light energy. The heat reaction causes damage, and the follicle will no longer be able to produce new hairs.

There are a few things that set our machine apart!

Large Spot Size: This means we can cover more area in less time, so your treatments will be done in a flash.

Contact Cooling: Direct cooling of the skin for the most comfortable experience.

Skintel Melanin Reader: This device takes accurate measurements of the active melanin in your skin. With this information, we accurately choose settings to best fit your skin type. The results? Increased safety and effective treatments!

You bet we do! We are committed to incredible hair reduction results. After completing 8 treatments, you will receive one free touch-up per year for five years!

You can book your touch-up, online or over the phone.
