Laser Hair Removal

The Candela GentleLase alexandrite laser system is the premier hair removal system available today. It has been shown to provide results superior to other technologies and is approved by the FDA for the permanent reduction of hair growth.

What is the Laser Hair removal Process?
Laser Hair removal uses the advanced technology of laser energy to remove unwanted hair faster and more effectively than any other procedure including electrolysis. Laser Hair removal can treat large areas like the back, shoulders, arms, legs and is gentle enough for sensitive areas like the face.

What is the Laser Hair removal treatment like?
To have the most effective treatment, if you have been tanning, waxing, plucking or using depilatories on the area, please discontinue at least 4 weeks prior to treatment.  For your appointment, arrive with the area shaven with a minimal amount of growth and ready for treatment.  The laser energy is absorbed by the pigment (not effective on blonde, red & white/gray color) in the hair follicle.  In a fraction of a second, all hairs in their active growth phase are disabled.

How many treatments would I need ?
Laser hair removal treats hair during its growth cycle. Generally a series of 6-8 treatments are necessary to achieve desired result.
