Hair removal methods such as tweezing, waxing, and shaving are something of the past. These methods successfully remove hair by cutting it off at the surface, or plucking it from the root, but the results are only temporary. New laser technology is an affordable and effective way to remove unwanted hair from the face, arms, legs, and back - permanently!

Length: Hair grows in stages, and since the laser pulses disable follicles only in their growth stage, complete hair removal requires several treatment sessions. Most cases require three to six laser hair removal treatment sessions.

Results:  Laser hair removal is a treatment method to remove unwanted hair. Laser technology sends very short pulses of light through the skin into the hair follicle. The light is absorbed by the pigment in and around the hair follicle, disabling future hair growth. This leaves skin hair-free, smooth, and silky.

Procedure:  Patients are pleased to find the treatment process mild and gentle. To minimize any discomfort, our trained professionals apply a numbing cream before they begin the procedure. Then, they scan the treatment area with the laser wand, which distributes about one pulse per second. The wand disperses a cooling spray with each pulse. And the laser covers larger surface areas, such as the back, arms, and legs, by casting a wide beam.

Anesthesia:  Topical

Recovery:  After treatment, you can return to all of your normal activities. Any remaining hair may have turned white during the procedure, but it will slough off within a few days. Also, it's normal for skin to appear pink or mildly itch; we can recommend a cream or gel to soothe the itching. The irritation should subside quickly.

Side Effects:  Possible but rare side effects include laser scars, tattoo darkening reddening after treatment, crusting, wound infection, darkening of the skin, hypo pigmentation
