Laser Hair Removal

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.

Laser hair removal is effective on all areas of the body and on all types of skin (even tanned or dark skin).

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.

Typically patients will see results in 4-6 treatments, though this number will vary based upon skin tone, hair color and several other factors. Our doctor will talk to you about anything that may affect your individual results.
