No. Sugaring is epilation – hair removal by the root, whereas laser uses concentrated light to destroy the hair follicle.

How can I ease the discomfort of hair removal?
Alexandria Professional has formulated a product called CC’Me (Calm and Cool Me) to calm and cool your skin before and after removing your hair. It is a pure and natural blend of Shea butter, Carapa Procera Oil (a fruit sourced in Africa whose oil has invigorating, emollient, nourishing and analgesic properties), sunflower seed oil and others. Apply CC’Me 15 minutes prior to your sugaring treatment to ease discomfort and calm potential reactions on all areas of the body. Apply post-treatment by massaging a small amount of CC’Me to the treatment area.
I have Sensitive Skin
If you experience any discomfort or redness, simply apply CC’Me Calming and Cooling balm, formulated to calm and cool your skin before and after hair removal. Restore lotion and Essential Tonic, along with  Mud Puddle® Hungarian Wellness Mud™ will instantly soothe and calm your skin.
Skin Spotting
Tiny red spots may appear on the skin for a few hours. If this should happen, do not be alarmed. This is a natural reaction caused when hair is removed by the root. It will disappear quickly. The bigger the root, the bigger the spot. As your hair is refined, the spots will become smaller.
