The secret season for laser

The secret season for laser

Why cooler months are perfect for hair removal

There’s something quietly strategic about starting laser hair removal when everything else begins to slow down. The heat lets up. Your calendar clears. Your skin recovers from the summer sun. And suddenly, what seemed like a chore in July starts to feel like self-care in November. At Aegis MD medical aesthetics clinic in Niagara, we see lots of patients start asking for laser hair removal and here’s why.

Less sun, less risk, better results

Sun exposure and laser don’t mix. That’s not marketing. That’s science. Laser hair removal targets pigment in your hair follicles. When your skin is freshly tanned or sun-exposed, there’s a higher chance of the laser mistaking your skin for its target, leading to unwanted side effects like irritation or pigment changes. In the fall and winter, your skin tone naturally returns to baseline. And you’re more likely to be covered up, anyway. That means safer, more accurate sessions with better long-term outcomes.

Laser hair removal is done in series, not one-off sessions

Laser hair removal works in cycles, usually spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart. Most patients need anywhere between 6 and 8 sessions to see full results. That means if you start in October or November, your treatments wrap up just as spring begins. You emerge from your winter hibernation smooth, sun-ready, and razor-free.
