What Is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal uses FDA-approved laser light to target pigment in the hair follicle. The heat damages the follicle so it grows less hair over time. The result is permanent hair reduction and smooth skin. You no longer need to pluck, tweeze, wax or shave as often. Our aestheticians prepare and care for your skin in a discreet, private medical spa setting.

What to Expect: Sessions, Comfort and Results
Your provider checks your skin and hair type before treatment. The laser passes over the area in short pulses. Most people feel a quick snap or warmth, and treatment is comfortable for most clients. Mild redness may last a few hours. Hair grows in cycles, so you need a series of sessions for the best results. Treated hair sheds over the following weeks.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal suits men and women who are tired of shaving, waxing or ingrown hairs. It works best on hair that is darker than the surrounding skin. Avoid tanning before treatment. Tell your provider about medicines or skin conditions. Light, gray or red hair may respond less well.
