Remove unwanted hair safely.

Traditional hair removal routines can be tedious, painful and expensive over time. Shaving may last a day, waxing a couple of weeks, but none of them last forever—and therein lies the true beauty of laser hair removal.

Remove unwanted hair on any part of your body. Women can have unwanted hair removed from their underarms, bikini area, legs, face, and arms. Men can have unwanted hair removed from their back, chest, abs, and even the beard and neck.

Through recent advancements, lasers can safely and effectively remove unwanted body hair. Laser hair removal has become a popular alternative to bleaching, waxing, tweezing, and shaving.

How does it work?

To eliminate hair, the laser emits gentle pulses of energy that pass through the skin to the hair follicle. This energy is then absorbed into the hair follicle to destroy it so that hair can never grow there again.

Am I a viable candidate for laser hair removal?

Laser hair removal is effective on all areas of the body and on all types of skin. Hair color, though, can be a limiting factor. Laser treatment is not effective for light red, white, grey or blonde hair types.

Does it hurt?

This is a completely safe treatment causing, at most, only minimal discomfort. Patients often say it feels similar to the snap of a rubber band. Slight redness or localized swelling can occasionally occur, but this usually subsides within the first 24 hours after treatment.

How many treatments are required?

Due to the nature of the human hair growth cycle, patients typically will see results in 4-6 treatments, though this number will vary based upon skin tone, hair color and several other factors. Your doctor or practitioner will talk to you about anything that may affect your individual results.
