Laser Hair Removal

No more waxing, shaving or endlessly plucking unwanted hair!

Laser hair reduction is a noninvasive, safe, effective way to permanently reduce and remove unwanted body and facial hair. This is not your mother’s hair removal system. Today’s advanced laser hair removal technologies provide effective hair removal in areas such as the face, arms, legs, bikini and underarm zones.

By targeting the natural melanin pigments within the hair follicle, a specially designed laser sends a pulse of light down to the root of the hair. This disrupts the hair follicle growth cycle, causing it to die and fall out. Please note: this treatment requires multiple treatments space 6-8 weeks apart, (the marked melanin is only readily available during a portion of the hair growth cycle), laser treatments offer permanent hair reduction after only a few visits; laser hair removal is safe and effective for all skin types.
