Many myths still swirl around laser hair removal — from pain to supposed summer restrictions. We’re here to debunk the most common ones and show you how it really works.
Myth 1: Laser hair removal is painful
Truth: Not anymore! Modern lasers are equipped with cooling systems and gentle modes, so the sensation is more like a light tingling. In most cases, you won’t need any numbing. At love epil, our specialists tailor the settings individually and ensure you stay comfortable throughout the entire treatment.
Myth 2: Laser hair removal damages your skin
Truth: Not at all. The laser targets only the hair follicle and leaves the surrounding skin untouched. When you choose a trusted studio with certified equipment and experienced specialists — like love epil — the treatment is completely safe. And the best part? You’ll start seeing visible results after just a few sessions.
Myth 3: Laser hair removal is expensive
Truth: When you add up the cost of razors, waxing, and sugaring, laser hair removal is actually the more cost-effective option in the long run. A woman who shaves 2–3 times a week goes through about 120–150 razors or cartridges per year. Between the ages of 18 and 50, that’s anywhere from 960 to 1600 units — not to mention the added costs of waxing or sugaring. Laser hair removal is not only more convenient, but it’s also more eco-friendly and financially smarter.

Myth 4: Laser doesn’t work on light or fine hair
Truth: At love epil, we use next-generation lasers — Deka and Candela — designed to effectively target even light, low-pigment, or fine hair. The secret lies in selecting the correct parameters — and that’s exactly what our specialists are trained to do.
Myth 5: It’s time-consuming and inconvenient
Truth: It’s actually much easier than you think. Underarms take just 3–5 minutes, and legs up to 50 minutes. Plus, there’s no need to grow your hair out — the laser works on hair that’s already in the growth phase. All you need to do is book an appointment at a time that suits you.
Myth 6: You can’t get laser treatments in the summer
Truth: Yes, you can! Just follow a few simple rules: avoid tanning for 3 days before and after your session, and always apply SPF. That’s all it takes.
On our side, we follow special summer-safe protocols to keep your skin protected.
Myths may sound loud — but reality speaks louder.
Modern laser hair removal is convenient, safe, and cost-effective.
Your skin will thank you for it.
