Key Takeaways

  • Underarm laser hair removal is $140 per session at InjectCo, the same price at every InjectCo clinic that offers laser.

  • Every InjectCo laser appointment is done by a registered nurse.

Underarms fall into the Medium tier at $140 per session. As an example built from the single-session price, six sessions at $140 each come to $840, before any maintenance sessions later. This is an example of the math, not a package or a discounted rate. For every area and how laser hair removal works at InjectCo, see our laser page.

How Many Sessions Do Underarms Need?

Most people need several sessions, often 4 to 8, spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart. Coarse hair, hormone-driven areas such as the chin and bikini line, and some skin and hair combinations can need more, and occasional maintenance sessions are normal. Your nurse sets your number at your first visit based on your hair and skin.

The American Academy of Dermatology says most patients can have laser hair removal once every 4 to 6 weeks, and that you can expect a 10% to 25% reduction in hair after the first treatment. That is why a single visit is not enough to clear an area.

What Changes Your Total Cost

A few factors affect how many sessions you need, and so your total cost.

  • Hair color against skin tone. The AAD says laser hair removal works best for patients with light-colored skin and dark-colored hair, and that it must be performed very carefully on darker skin.
  • Coarse or hormone-driven hair. Hair like this can need more sessions, as noted above.
  • Keeping to your spacing. Your nurse sets the gap between visits; most patients can be treated once every 4 to 6 weeks.
  • Maintenance later. The AAD notes that when hair regrows there tends to be less of it, and that a patient may need maintenance treatments to keep the area free of hair.

Underarm Laser vs Shaving and Waxing

Shaving and waxing remove hair that is already there, so both have to be repeated, every few days for shaving or every few weeks for waxing. Neither changes the hair follicle. Laser hair removal targets the follicle over a series of sessions for long-term hair reduction.

Underarm Laser on Darker Skin

The AAD says laser hair removal is a treatment option for patients with dark skin, and that it must be performed very carefully in these patients. We assess your Fitzpatrick skin type before your first session, and it guides the approach for your underarms. For more detail, see our guide on laser hair removal for dark skin.

What to Expect at Your Visit and After

Everyone in the treatment room wears protective eyewear. The AAD says many patients describe the pulses as warm pinpricks or a rubber band being snapped against the skin. How long a session lasts depends on the size of the area, and underarms are a small area compared with the back or legs.

Afterward, you will see some redness and swelling that often looks like a mild sunburn. According to the American Academy of Dermatology, the most common side effects are minor and last 1 to 3 days. Protect the area from the sun, skip tanning beds, and follow your nurse’s aftercare instructions. For more on how it feels across the body, see our guide on does laser hair removal hurt.

Who Should Wait

Tell your nurse before you book if you have a recent tan or sunburn on the area, are pregnant, or have broken or infected skin in the underarm area. She may ask you to wait until the skin has healed or the timing is right. If you are also thinking about another area, our leg laser hair removal cost guide covers that pricing.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does underarm laser hair removal cost per session?

At InjectCo, underarm laser hair removal is $140 per session, the same price at every InjectCo clinic that offers laser. Underarms are in the Medium tier on our rate card, with the neck. Your total depends on how many sessions your plan includes, which your nurse sets at your first visit.

How many sessions do underarms need?

Most people need several sessions, often 4 to 8, spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart. Coarse hair, hormone-driven areas such as the chin and bikini line, and some skin and hair combinations can need more, and occasional maintenance sessions are normal. According to the American Academy of Dermatology, you can expect a 10% to 25% reduction in hair after the first treatment. Your nurse sets your number at your first visit.

Is armpit laser hair removal permanent?

No. Laser gives long-term hair reduction, not permanent removal. Mayo Clinic says results often last months and sometimes years, and hair that grows back is often finer and lighter in color. The AAD notes that a patient may need maintenance treatments to keep the area free of hair, so occasional touch-up sessions are a normal part of the plan.

Does underarm laser hair removal hurt?

Most people feel a brief sensation with each pulse rather than lasting pain. The AAD says many patients compare the pulses to warm pinpricks or a rubber band snapping against the skin. Ask your nurse about comfort options for sensitive areas before your session.

Can I use HSA or FSA for underarm laser hair removal?

Generally, no. IRS Publication 502 names hair removal (electrolysis), along with face lifts, hair transplants and liposuction, among cosmetic procedures you generally cannot include as a medical expense. Check with your HSA or FSA plan administrator if you believe your situation is an exception, and keep any documentation they ask for.

When can I shave after a session?

Ask your nurse when to shave after your session, since the timing depends on how your skin responds. Redness and swelling that looks like a mild sunburn is common at first, and according to the American Academy of Dermatology, the most common side effects are minor and last 1 to 3 days. Until your nurse says otherwise, keep the area out of the sun and follow your aftercare instructions.

Plan Your Underarm Sessions

The $140 session price is fixed. What sets your total is how many sessions your hair and skin need, and a nurse can only tell that after looking at the area. Hair color, skin tone, coarse or hormone-driven hair and keeping to your spacing all play a part. Bring your questions to your first visit so your plan fits your own underarms.

Kiara DeWitt, BSN, RN, CPN founded InjectCo in early 2021 while also heading up the neurosurgery + neurology unit at Cook Children’s Pediatric Hospital as lead clinical educator. After completing her Bachelor's degree at Texas Christian University, Kiara realized just how much the aesthetic medicine industry was missing, wishing it was more focused on ethical decision-making and building relationships. Kiara’s dream was to create an atmosphere for her patients where they feel loved, empowered, and comfortable. She believes in a “lead to serve” mentality, hoping to create a more personal connection with both her patients and team alike. Today InjectCo has nine Texas clinics: seven in Dallas-Fort Worth, one in The Woodlands and one in Austin.
Kiara loves nothing more than creating a collaborating, educational approach with her team, and thrives on personal and professional growth opportunities. She hopes that her patients feel heard and encouraged at every InjectCo visit and that they are truly excited about their personalized and well-designed aesthetic treatment plan. This love for education and safety in the industry led her to later found Texas Academy of Medical Aesthetics, InjectCo's own injector training program, which specializes in a 100+ hour aesthetic injector internship where students are able to train and shadow at all nine of InjectCo’s clinics.

Kiara’s patients recognize her and the entire InjectCo team as highly skilled and extremely thorough clinicians. She hopes to continue being a knowledgeable and approachable resource for clinical injectors across the country who are hoping to grow and scale their aesthetic business.
