Since 1997, laser epilation, commonly referred to as laser hair removal, has been an FDA approved method for permanently removing and reducing the growth of unwanted hair on the face, legs, back, chest, stomach, arms, neck, bikini area, underarms, or pretty much anywhere else. Every year, more and more men and women try laser treatments for permanent hair removal. They're sick of the daily hassles of traditional hair removal maintenance—the shaving, tweezing, or waxing regimens.

All laser hair removal systems use the science of selective photothermolysis—a process that directs heat toward the melanin in the skin. The melanin then absorbs the heat and can be destroyed while the rest of the skin is undamaged.
If you're interested in laser hair removal, there are still many variables left to consider, including an array of options in laser types (including comparable pulsed light devices), procedural approaches, and available professionals. We can help you in this process by arranging for a complimentary consultation with a hair removal specialist.
Types of Hair Removal Laser Systems
Alexandrite Laser: One of the fastest and most often used laser types, it's great for handling large areas.
Diode Laser: Works best on darker skin tones. Covers a lot of area quickly, but doesn't always get the job done with lighter, finer hairs.
Nd:Yag Laser: This long pulse laser also struggles with finer hair and can be a bit painful, but it works on patients of all skin types and has an excellent repetition rate.
Ruby Laser: One of the older models, they work well on lighter hair, but they aren't an option for people with tanned or dark skin
