About


At Laser and Electrolysis Studio, we proudly specializes in treating all skin types, with a focus on darker skin. As a woman of color, our founder made it her mission to provide safe and effective hair removal for everyone.

Veterans!

Laser and Electrolysis Studio is now in-network with VA insurance offering FULLY COVERED hair removal treatments! Our office is the second business in Texas that provides this service for the VA. Please call us today for any questions and how to get started. We look forward to meeting you!

We are honored to have supported thousands of transgender and gender-diverse clients on their hair removal journeys. Our team specializes in understanding unique hair growth patterns and offers expert care for facial and body hair removal, including physician-directed treatment plans for gender-affirming procedures such as GRS, FFS, and phalloplasty.

As proud members and allies of the LGBTQIA+ community, we are committed to providing a safe, respectful, and affirming space for all. Our practice stands firmly for the rights, dignity, and well-being of every individual we serve.

Laser & Electrolysis Studio was founded in 1971 by industry pioneer Cheryl Piquard. In 2017, ownership transitioned to Sascha Asghari, who had been personally trained and mentored by Cheryl since 2016. This mentorship ensured that Cheryl’s legacy of compassion, integrity, and excellence in care continued seamlessly under Sascha’s leadership.

Sascha’s passion lies in helping people feel more comfortable and confident in their own skin. She finds joy in supporting clients on their journey to freedom from unwanted hair.

Before moving to Austin in 2005, Sascha worked in a cosmetic clinic that offered injectables, tattoo removal, spider and varicose vein treatments, and laser hair removal. This early exposure sparked her interest in the field of aesthetics and hair removal.

Sascha is a graduate of Texas State University and spent six years working in technology at Apple Inc., where she developed a deep appreciation for quality and precision. In returning to the hair removal industry, she fulfilled her goal of owning a business focused on client care and results.

At Laser & Electrolysis Studio, we are committed to providing safe, effective hair removal for all skin types—with a special focus on inclusivity, professionalism, and personalized care.
