Laser Hair Removal

We offer laser hair removal with the Syneron Candela elōs Plus diode laser.  One of the most advanced solutions for laser hair removal, the elōs Plus diode uses two energy sources which makes it safer and more effective compared to traditional alternatives.

Prior to your visit, be sure to shave the area targeted for hair removal.  Although the diode is designed to be comfortable for patients during the treatment, we do offer a topical numbing cream that can be used for additional comfort.  For optimal results, multiple treatments are recommended.  Your treatment plan will be adjusted according to hair type and coarseness, but most patients are able to achieve their desired outcome after 6-8 sessions, spaced 4-6 weeks apart.

What to expect after your laser hair removal

Some redness and swelling around the hair follicles is normal, but these effects typically go away after 2-3 days.  This treatment works best for lighter skin tones and patients without tanned skin.
