If you’ve ever dealt with painful, stubborn ingrown hairs—especially after shaving or waxing—you’re definitely not alone. At CLEO Skin + Laser, one of the most common reasons clients choose laser hair removal isn’t just for smoother, hair-free skin... it’s to finally get relief from chronic ingrown hairs.
Here’s why laser hair removal has become a go-to solution for so many people in Minneapolis—and why it could be the fix you’ve been looking for.
🚫 The Problem with Ingrown Hairs
Ingrown hairs happen when hair curls back into the skin instead of growing out normally. This often leads to:
- Painful bumps
- Redness and irritation
- Dark marks or hyperpigmentation over time
- Repeated infections or scarring, especially in sensitive areas like the bikini line, underarms, or beard area
Shaving, waxing, and plucking can all make the problem worse—because they either cut the hair too close or pull it out, encouraging it to curl back under the skin.
✨ How Laser Hair Removal Helps
Laser hair removal works by using focused light energy to target the pigment in hair follicles, gradually reducing how much and how quickly hair grows.
Fewer hairs + finer regrowth = fewer chances for hairs to get trapped under the skin.
At CLEO, we use advanced ND:YAG and Pico lasers, which are safe for a wide range of skin tones and effective even on coarse, stubborn hair.
Here’s why it helps:
✅ Reduces overall hair density over time
✅ Softens the texture of regrown hair, so it’s less likely to curl into the skin
✅ Helps fade dark spots and redness left behind by previous ingrown hairs
✅ Eliminates the need for daily shaving or frequent waxing, which keeps irritation to a minimum
📍 Real Relief for Common Problem Areas
We see clients in Minneapolis who struggle with ingrown hairs in spots like:
- Bikini line
- Underarms
- Neck and jawline (for those who shave facial hair)
- Legs
For many, laser hair removal isn’t just cosmetic—it’s life-changing comfort and confidence.
