Laser hair removal permanently reduces unwanted hair by targeting follicle melanin during the active growth phase. Modern technology makes it effective across a wide range of skin and hair types.
get startedUnwanted hair refers to hair growth in areas the patient finds cosmetically undesirable or practically inconvenient. It's one of the most common aesthetic concerns across all genders and skin types, and laser hair removal is the most effective and long-lasting treatment option available. Unlike temporary methods — shaving, waxing, threading — laser treatment targets the follicle itself, producing permanent reduction in hair growth in treated areas.
Patients come in about unwanted hair when the maintenance burden of temporary methods has become significant, when ingrown hairs are a chronic irritant, or when hair growth has increased with hormonal change and temporary methods are no longer keeping up.
Unwanted hair — hair in areas where patients prefer not to have it — is driven by genetics and hormones.
Genetics: Hair distribution patterns are largely inherited. Some patients have denser, darker hair in areas like the upper lip, chin, or bikini that others don't.
Androgens: Testosterone and DHEA stimulate terminal hair growth in androgen-sensitive follicles. This is why hair in the chin, upper lip, and certain body areas often increases with hormonal changes — puberty, pregnancy, perimenopause, or PCOS.
Ethnicity: Hair density and growth patterns vary significantly across ethnic backgrounds. Patients of Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and South Asian descent often have darker, denser hair in areas that patients from other backgrounds don't.
Patients seeking unwanted hair treatment typically describe:
Hair distribution can change with hormonal shifts. Women may notice increased facial or body hair during perimenopause as estrogen declines and the ratio of androgens to estrogen shifts. Patients with PCOS may see progressive change in hair patterns with hormonal fluctuation.
Completed laser treatment produces durable reduction, but dormant follicles can be reactivated by significant hormonal change — which is why annual maintenance sessions are standard for many patients rather than a true one-time treatment.
Laser hair removal requires a full series for optimal results.
At CAMI, laser hair removal starts with a skin and hair assessment. Technology selection matters — the wrong laser for a patient's skin tone can cause post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and the wrong settings can reduce efficacy significantly. We select the appropriate laser, establish treatment parameters for each area, and set realistic expectations about the number of sessions and the degree of reduction achievable.
We also address hormonal hair growth. Patients with PCOS or other androgen-driven hair growth may see some regrowth despite a complete series. Managing expectations and planning for periodic maintenance produces the best long-term outcome.
Care guided by experience, precision, and a deep understanding of natural beauty.

I have been coming to CAMI for 5 to 6 years now and their service is bar none! I’m always exceptionally pleased with my results, as I rotate Botox and Xenomin. The staff are very friendly and I always make me feel right at home!
I can’t say enough about the entire team at CAMI and overall experience as a new patient. My concerns were addressed and at no point did I feel rushed or pressured to make a decision. Katie and the entire staff put me at ease. My results are amazing and have made me feel so much more confident. Thank you CAMI! Highly recommend!

Ashley at CAMI has been amazing. She made me feel comfortable before, during and after my treatments and helped me feel more confident in my appearance
I saw Madison for my Botox appointment and she was the best! She listened to my concerns and I’m very pleased with the results. She also recommended some great skincare products! Can’t recommend this office enough!
I had a wonderful experience with Madison Mikolajczyk,. From the very beginning, she explained everything about my face in detail and with such professionalism that I immediately felt comfortable. I truly appreciated her honesty in telling me exactly what I needed and what would work best for my features. She performed my filler injections using the cannula method and normal injections which left me with beautiful, natural-looking results—and no bruising at all. No one can do that using that method with no bruising. The entire process was completely painless, as she took her time and worked so gently.I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. My results are subtle, natural, and exactly what I hoped for. I’m truly in love with the way my face looks now and would highly recommend her to anyone seeking safe, professional, and natural enhancements. I did Sculptra, Botox and Radiesse filler looking forward for more.
I’ve had nothing but a great experience at CAMI! Ashley is amazing at what she does, as someone who has never gotten any kind of injections before, she was very knowledgeable explaining everything to you beforehand, and will make you feel as comfortable and confident as possible!
I have been very happy with my services over the past few months. Meredith is so sweet and always makes my time there very comfortable. She is patient with me and never pushes me into anything I’m not comfortable with regarding my skin.
I love visiting the CAMI location in Huntersville! They treat everyone special and I left feeling refreshed and uplifted. It was my first time meeting Katie, and she was spectacular! She spent time addressing my needs and concerns and I will definitely request an appointment with Katie again. Thank you CAMI!!
Very personable fun atmosphere and relaxing. Normally I go to California for my facials but I feel very good going to CAMI in Huntersville for my beauty needs.
Easy to schedule consult and treatments! Wonderful welcoming staff at CAMI who make you feel relaxed and excited to be there. Will continue to choose CAMI for all cosmetic needs and recommend to everyone!
This is a great place to come for any facial treatments, fillers, etc. The staff is excellent and I felt totally pampered.
The team is awesome. The staff takes great care of me. I would highly recommend CAMI.
The team was amazing. This was my 1st time getting Botox. They were very thorough and informative. They made the experience easy.
Their team is highly skilled and very good at what they do. I have never had any type of facial treatments before and decided it was time for a little pick-me-up. They took the time to listen to my concerns and recommended the procedure that was best suited for the outcome I was wanting.
Ashley is fantastic! Professional, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. She’s my go-to for all my skincare maintenance needs. I always leave feeling confident and refreshed!

I was honestly skeptical about trying CAMI since I hadn’t had the best experiences with Botox and other treatments elsewhere. But choosing CAMI turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve made. Madison, in particular, is the best nurse and injector I’ve ever worked with—she’s honest, genuinely cares about your results, and makes you feel like her top priority. While the treatments are an investment, as we age a little extra care and attention truly go a long way.
I Love CAMI, and all there staff! Katie Wilson is the absolute Beauty Making Queen!!! 👑 She is very particular when she was doing what I asked of and the results are perfection. I have recommended CAMI to multiple people and they are just as please. Thank you CAMI
I’m so glad I gave this med spa another chance. Everything feels completely different now in the best way. I had a hydrafacial and hydr with Meredith and noticed an immediate improvement in my skin. I went back and purchased a microneedling package, and the results have been good so far. Meredith truly made my experience there so much better. She made me feel comfortable, welcomed, and kept me laughing the entire time. She is also very honest, which I really appreciate. I’ve finally found my person, and I won’t let anyone else touch my face. Highly recommend!
