Unlike the outdated methods of removing unwanted hair such as shaving, tweezing, creams and waxing which last for a very short period of time, laser hair removal provides long-lasting results. And unlike the extremely slow and painful method of electrolysis, laser assures gentle treatments and produce quick and smooth results.

Using advanced clinically tested laser technology such as Diode, NDYAG, Alex, Ruby, IPL as well as other lasers, hair removal is simple, convenient and comfortable with long lasting results. Our state-of-the-art lasers safely remove unwanted hair without damaging the delicate pores and structures of the skin. Laser beam penetrates the skin and becomes absorbed in the hair follicle residing under the skin surface. The heat generated by the laser energy destroys the follicle. Each laser beam or “pulse” takes less than a second to destroy a large number of hair follicles simultaneously.

The number of hair treatments needed to obtain optimal results varies with hair density, hair color, skin types, location of treatment area and hair growth cycle.
