Many men and women have discovered the benefits of laser hair removal for treating unwanted body hair in areas such as the face, back, underarms, bikini areas, shoulders, and legs.

Process: Laser hair removal is convenient and virtually pain free. A topical anesthetic is applied to the treatment area and most treatments last under 1 hour. The energy of the Alexandrite laser concentrates on the melanin of the hair shafts and follicles. This energy is converted into heat and disables the follicles impairing hair growth. During laser hair removal, a cooling unit that blows cold air is utilized to reduce discomfort and skin irritation. Hair grows in cycles; therefore, it will take a few treatments for the laser energy to effectively treat all of the hair follicles in a specific area. Additionally, because every patient will have different anatomic variations (i.e. skin tone, hair color and density), multiple treatments are necessary to see a significant reduction in hair growth.
