What Is Laser Hair Removal?

Laser hair removal is a non-invasive method of reducing unwanted hair by using pulses of concentrated light. The light targets hair follicles, heating them to inhibit future growth. It is the absolute best solution when it comes to permanently removing hair from your body.

How It Works

Laser energy is absorbed by the pigment in your hair, damaging the follicle enough to delay or prevent future hair growth without harming the surrounding skin. Adjustments are made to facilitate the success of the laser based on each individual’s skin and hair types.

Long-Term Benefits

  • Significant reduction in hair growth

  • Smoother skin with fewer ingrown hairs

  • No more razor burn or waxing pain

Ideal Candidates

Laser hair removal works best on individuals with dark hair and light skin, but with our advanced technology, we treat a wide range of skin tones and hair types safely and effectively. Always be sure to choose a technician with the technology and skillset to help you achieve the results you want regardless of your skin tone and type - not every company is able to achieve this.
