Smooth, Hair-Free Skin Starts Here — at Dr. Burkenstock’s Skin Body Health
Are you tired of the never-ending cycle of shaving, waxing, and plucking? At Dr. Burkenstock’s Skin Body Health Med Spa, we offer safe, effective, and long-lasting laser hair removal treatments designed to give you smooth, confident skin without the daily hassle.
Serving New Orleans, Metairie, Kenner, Gretna, Harvey, Marrero, and surrounding communities, our expert team delivers personalized care using advanced laser technology that targets hair at the root for results no razor or waxing method can match.
What Is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal is a non-invasive cosmetic treatment that uses concentrated light energy to penetrate hair follicles and disable them at the root. The laser targets melanin (pigment) in the hair, delivering heat that reduces the follicle’s ability to regrow hair while leaving surrounding skin unharmed.
It is one of the most trusted solutions for long-term hair reduction and is far more effective than shaving or waxing.
How Does It Work?
During your session at our laser hair removal in New Orleans med spa, a handheld laser device is passed over the treatment area. The energy is absorbed by the hair follicle, helping reduce future growth.
Because hair grows in cycles, only active follicles can be treated in each session, so multiple appointments are required for the best results.
Patients often describe the sensation as quick, light snaps similar to a rubber band. Treatments are fast, well tolerated, and require no downtime, allowing most patients to return to normal activities immediately.
How Long-Lasting Are the Results?
Laser hair removal provides long-lasting reduction in unwanted hair. Most patients experience up to an 85% reduction in hair growth after completing their treatment plan.
While new hair may develop over time due to natural body changes, treated areas typically remain smoother and require significantly less maintenance.
How Many Sessions Will I Need?
The number of sessions varies depending on hair type, skin tone, and the area being treated. Since hair grows in different phases, multiple treatments are needed to target all active follicles.
Most patients require 4 to 6 sessions spaced 6 to 8 weeks apart for optimal results.

What to Expect After Treatment
After your session, the treated area may appear slightly pink or feel mildly sensitive, similar to a light sunburn. This usually fades within a few hours.
There is no downtime required, and most patients return to normal activities the same day. Over the following days and weeks, treated hairs shed naturally, and results improve with each session.
