Overview of 810 Diode
Laser Hair Removal

Tired of constantly shaving, waxing, or dealing with painful ingrown hairs? At Rio Glow Aesthetics and Wellness, we offer a cutting-edge solution for smooth, hair-free skin: the 810 Diode Laser.

This advanced laser system delivers targeted energy directly to the hair follicle, safely and efficiently reducing unwanted hair at its source. The result? Permanent hair reduction with minimal discomfort and no downtime—perfect for any lifestyle.

💡 What Is the 810 Diode Laser?

The 810 Diode is a medical-grade laser that emits a specific wavelength of light (810 nanometers) optimized for hair follicle absorption. The laser’s energy heats and disables the hair follicle while leaving the surrounding skin untouched, making it one of the safest and most effective methods of laser hair removal available today.

Unlike traditional methods that only offer temporary results, the 810 Diode offers long-term reduction in hair growth—saving you time, money, and frustration in the long run.

📍 Common Treatment Areas

The 810 Diode Laser is versatile and can be used on virtually any area of the body where unwanted hair is a concern. Popular treatment areas include:

Underarms
Legs (full or partial)
Bikini line or Brazilian
Face (upper lip, chin, cheeks)

Chest and abdomen
Arms and hands

Treatments are fast, comfortable, and tailored to your skin type and hair color for the most effective results.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is the 810 Diode Laser and how does it work?

The 810 Diode Laser emits light that is absorbed by pigment in the hair. This energy converts to heat, damaging the follicle and reducing its ability to regrow hair.

Is laser hair removal painful?

Discomfort is minimal and often compared to the snap of a rubber band. The laser’s built-in cooling system helps keep your skin comfortable throughout the session.

How many sessions will I need?

Most clients need between 6 to 8 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart for optimal results. Hair grows in cycles, so multiple sessions are needed to target follicles at the right phase.

Is there any downtime?

No downtime is required. You can return to your daily routine immediately after your appointment. Some clients may experience mild redness or sensitivity that subsides within hours.

Can it be used on all skin tones?

Yes, the 810 Diode Laser is safe for many skin tones and hair types, though results vary. We’ll assess your skin and hair profile during your consultation to ensure the best outcome.

What should I avoid before and after treatment?

Avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, and waxing before your session. After treatment, skip hot showers, saunas, and exfoliants for 24–48 hours to avoid irritation.

Is it permanent?

The 810 Diode Laser provides long-term hair reduction—most clients enjoy a 70–90% reduction in hair regrowth with proper treatment and maintenance.

Can men get 810 Diode treatments?

Absolutely! We treat both men and women and offer customized plans for beard lines, back, chest, and more.

Step-by-Step: 810 Diode Laser Hair Removal Experience

At Rio Glow Aesthetics and Wellness, we believe every hair removal journey should feel just as smooth as the results. From your very first visit to your final session, our goal is to provide a safe, personalized, and stress-free experience—with lasting benefits that go far beyond the surface.


1. Consultation & Hair Analysis

Your treatment journey begins with a one-on-one consultation with a licensed laser specialist. We’ll examine your skin tone, hair density, and growth patterns, discuss your hair removal goals, and review your health history to ensure the 810 Diode Laser is the right fit for you.

This session allows us to create a custom treatment plan—tailored to your body, hair type, and long-term results. You’ll also have a chance to ask questions and learn exactly what to expect.


2. Skin Preparation & Safety Protocols

Before we begin, the treatment area is gently cleaned to remove any lotion, oil, or debris. If needed, we trim surface hair to allow the laser to penetrate directly to the follicle. You’ll be provided with protective eyewear, and we’ll fine-tune the laser settings based on your individual profile.

Thanks to the Diode’s integrated cooling system, your comfort is maintained throughout the session—even in more sensitive zones.


3. 810 Diode Laser Hair Removal Treatment

Next, your provider will use the 810 Diode Laser handpiece to deliver precise pulses of light energy into the targeted area. This light is absorbed by the melanin in your hair follicle, which then heats and disables the follicle to reduce future hair growth.

Treatments are quick—ranging from 10 to 45 minutes depending on the size of the area. Most clients describe the sensation as a gentle warmth or light snap, with little to no discomfort thanks to the cooling tip.


4. Calming Gel & Post-Treatment Care

Once the laser portion is complete, we apply a cooling aloe or hyaluronic-based gel to soothe and hydrate your skin. You’ll be given personalized aftercare instructions to help support recovery and maximize results.

This includes what to avoid (like heat, exfoliation, and sun exposure) and what to incorporate (hydration, sunscreen, and gentle care). Our team will monitor your progress and guide you through follow-up treatments as needed.


💡 Healing Timeline: What to Expect After 810 Diode

Day 1–2: Mild redness, warmth, or sensitivity is normal—similar to a light sunburn. Slight swelling around hair follicles (follicular edema) may occur and is a good sign the follicles were successfully targeted.

Week 1: Some treated hairs may begin to shed. Don’t worry—this is expected and a natural part of the process.

Weeks 3–5: Hair regrowth slows noticeably. Any returning hairs will likely be softer, finer, and less dense.

By Session 6+: With consistent treatments, you’ll see a significant reduction in hair. Treated areas stay smoother longer, with fewer touch-ups needed over time.


Whether you’re preparing for vacation, simplifying your routine, or saying goodbye to razors and wax for good, the 810 Diode Laser offers a trusted, long-term solution for hair-free confidence.

Post-Treatment Care & At-Home Tips

✅ What to Expect After 810 Diode Treatment

Right after your laser session, it’s completely normal to experience a few short-lived side effects. These are temporary and indicate that the laser has successfully targeted the hair follicles.

Common post-treatment reactions include:

– Mild redness, warmth, or sensitivity in the treated area (similar to a light sunburn)
– Slight swelling around hair follicles (follicular edema)
Tightness or tenderness in the area for a few hours
– Gradual hair shedding over the next 7–14 days
– Noticeably slower regrowth and finer, softer hair with each session

These signs mean the laser energy has done its job—damaging the follicles to reduce future growth.

🧊 Tips for Recovery & Home Care

To help your skin recover smoothly and get the most benefit from your laser hair removal, follow these simple yet essential aftercare tips:

Avoid sun exposure for at least 72 hours and wear SPF 30+ if outdoors
– Skip tanning beds, saunas, hot tubs, and steam rooms for 48–72 hours
– Refrain from shaving, waxing, or plucking the treated area until it’s fully settled
– Use cool compresses if any redness or irritation lingers
Do not exfoliate or use harsh scrubs for at least 3–5 days
– Stick with gentle, fragrance-free cleansers and moisturizers
– Avoid heavy sweating or intense exercise for the first 24–48 hours
– Stay hydrated and apply soothing products like aloe vera or unscented lotion to keep skin calm

If you experience any itching, resist the urge to scratch—let the skin heal naturally. Shedding of treated hair may occur in the first couple of weeks, and it’s completely normal.

💡 Pro Tip:

For enhanced results, stay consistent with your treatment schedule and avoid skipping sessions. Pairing 810 Diode Laser with healthy skin habits—like proper sun protection and hydration—can help prolong your smooth, hair-free outcome.

If you experience anything unusual—such as prolonged redness, blistering, or discomfort—please don’t hesitate to contact our team. Your safety and satisfaction are always our top priorities at Rio Glow.
