You wake up and get dressed without thinking about stubble. No more razor burn on your bikini line. No more scheduling your life around waxing appointments or avoiding certain outfits because you didn’t have time to shave.
That’s what happens when you’re done with laser hair removal. You get 80-90% permanent reduction in hair growth. The hair that does come back? It’s finer, lighter, barely noticeable. Most people forget what it was like to deal with daily grooming.
You’ll save time every single week. You’ll save money every single month. And you’ll stop dealing with ingrown hairs, razor bumps, and the constant cycle of hair growing back thicker and darker after shaving.
Dolce Aesthetics NY has been serving Brooklyn residents with professional cosmetology services for years. Our practice is led by Jennifer DiLandro, a nurse practitioner with 18 years of experience, and Medical Director Dr. Sophia Lubin, a board-certified OB/GYN.
We’ve treated thousands of patients across multiple NYC-area locations. Our Brooklyn office is located in Bay Ridge at 8721 3rd Avenue, where we use FDA-cleared Cynosure Apogee Elite technology—a dual-wavelength laser system that’s safe and effective for all skin tones.
Brooklyn’s diverse community needs providers who understand different skin types. That’s why we use technology that can be customized for your specific hair color, skin tone, and treatment goals. Whether you’re in Bay Ridge, Bensonhurst, Dyker Heights, or anywhere else in Brooklyn, you’re getting medical-grade treatment from experienced professionals.
First, you’ll come in for a consultation. Our team assesses your skin type, hair color, and the areas you want treated. We’ll explain how many sessions you’ll likely need and answer any questions about the process.
When you come in for treatment, the area gets prepped with a cool gel. The technician uses a handheld device that delivers laser energy to your hair follicles. The Cynosure Apogee Elite combines two wavelengths—Alexandrite for lighter skin and Nd:YAG for darker tones—so the treatment is customized to you. It also has built-in cryo-cooling that numbs your skin before each pulse. Most people describe the sensation as a quick snap, not painful.
Sessions are fast. Small areas like the upper lip take 10-15 minutes. Larger areas like legs might take 30-45 minutes. You can go right back to your day afterward—no downtime.
You’ll come back every 4-6 weeks for your next session. Hair grows in cycles, so each treatment targets hair that’s in the active growth phase. After 6-8 sessions, most people see about 80% permanent reduction. Within 7-10 days after each treatment, the treated hair starts falling out on its own.

We offer laser hair removal for nearly any area of the body. That includes face (upper lip, chin, cheeks, sideburns), underarms, arms, legs, bikini line (standard or Brazilian), back, chest, shoulders, and neck. If you have a specific area in mind, just ask during your consultation.
Each session includes a skin assessment to make sure settings are optimized for your skin type. The treatment itself uses FDA-cleared technology with integrated cooling for comfort. Afterward, you’ll get clear instructions on aftercare—things like avoiding sun exposure for a couple weeks and skipping hot showers or intense workouts for 24 hours.
Brooklyn residents deal with hot summers and want to feel confident at the beach or in lighter clothing. Laser hair removal gives you that freedom without the constant upkeep. You’re not locked into a daily shaving routine. You’re not planning your beach trips around your waxing schedule.
The cost varies depending on the size of the area you’re treating and how many sessions you need. Smaller areas like the upper lip are more affordable than full legs, but when you compare it to a lifetime of waxing—which can cost over $20,000 over 30 years—laser hair removal is actually the smarter investment. Many practices offer package deals that bring down the per-session cost.
Most people need 6-8 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart to see significant, lasting results. The exact number depends on your hair type, skin tone, and the area being treated.
Here’s why multiple sessions matter: hair grows in cycles. At any given time, only some of your hair is in the active growth phase. The laser can only target hair that’s actively growing. So each session catches a new batch of hair follicles.
Hormonal areas like the face or bikini line sometimes need a few extra sessions. Coarser, darker hair typically responds faster than fine or light hair. After your initial series of treatments, you might want an annual touch-up to maintain results, but most people see about 80% permanent reduction and are thrilled with that.
Yes, when the right technology is used. We use the Cynosure Apogee Elite, which has two wavelengths specifically designed to treat all skin types safely.
The Alexandrite wavelength (755nm) works best for lighter skin tones. The Nd:YAG wavelength (1064nm) is designed for darker skin tones and can safely target hair without affecting the surrounding skin. The system also has cryo-cooling built in, which protects your skin and makes the treatment more comfortable.
Older laser systems couldn’t always distinguish between skin pigment and hair pigment, which made them risky for darker skin. That’s not the case anymore. During your consultation, we’ll assess your skin type and customize the settings to match. Brooklyn’s diverse population needs providers who can treat everyone safely, and that’s exactly what this technology allows.
The cost depends on the size of the area you’re treating and how many sessions you need. Small areas like the upper lip or underarms typically cost less per session than larger areas like full legs or back.
On average, laser hair removal sessions range from $100 to $600 depending on the treatment area. Most providers offer package deals that reduce the per-session cost when you commit to a full series upfront.
Here’s the bigger picture: if you’re currently waxing, you’re spending around $59 per session. If you wax monthly, that’s over $700 a year. Over 30 years, that adds up to more than $20,000. Laser hair removal is a one-time investment that pays for itself. You’ll spend a few thousand dollars upfront, but then you’re done—no more monthly appointments, no more buying razors or shaving cream, no more dealing with ingrown hairs or razor burn.
Most people describe it as a quick snap or mild sting, not actual pain. The Cynosure Apogee Elite we use has integrated cryo-cooling that numbs your skin right before each laser pulse, which makes the process much more comfortable.
Sensitivity varies depending on the area. The upper lip and bikini line tend to be more sensitive than arms or legs. But even in those areas, most people tolerate it well. If you’ve ever had a waxing appointment, laser hair removal is generally less uncomfortable than that—and unlike waxing, you’re not doing it every month.
If you’re particularly sensitive, you can ask about numbing cream before your session. Sessions are also quick—small areas take 10-15 minutes, so even if there’s mild discomfort, it’s over fast. After treatment, your skin might feel a little warm or look slightly red, like a mild sunburn, but that usually fades within a few hours.
Before your session, shave the treatment area the day before. Don’t wax, pluck, or use hair removal creams for at least 2-4 weeks prior—the laser needs the hair follicle intact to work properly. Avoid tanning or sun exposure for at least two weeks before treatment, and skip any lotions, oils, or makeup on the day of your appointment.
After your session, treat your skin gently. Avoid hot showers, saunas, or intense workouts for 24 hours—you don’t want to irritate the treated area. Keep it clean with mild soap and pat it dry instead of rubbing. Stay out of the sun for at least two weeks and use sunscreen if you have to be outside.
You might notice some redness or slight swelling right after treatment, but that’s normal and should go away within a few hours. Within 7-10 days, the treated hair will start falling out on its own. Don’t pick at it—just let it shed naturally. You can exfoliate gently to help the process along if needed.
Yes, facial laser hair removal is one of the most popular treatments. Common areas include the upper lip, chin, cheeks, sideburns, and full face. It’s effective for both women dealing with unwanted facial hair and men looking to reduce beard growth or shape their facial hair.
The process is the same as body treatments, but facial sessions are usually quicker since the areas are smaller. The Cynosure Apogee Elite is safe for facial skin and can be adjusted based on your skin tone and hair type. Most people need 6-8 sessions for significant reduction.
One thing to keep in mind: facial hair is often influenced by hormones, so some people need occasional touch-ups to maintain results. But compared to daily shaving or monthly threading appointments, laser hair removal is a massive time-saver. You’ll wake up with smooth skin and won’t have to worry about stubble showing up by midday.
