Laser hair removal is a great choice if you want to ditch the hassle of daily shaving, waxing, or plucking. That’s why it’s so popular. It targets hair follicles at the root, significantly reducing hair growth. While not a permanent solution, laser hair removal offers long-lasting reduction in hair growth (often between 60 to 90 percent depending on the area treated).
We use advanced laser technology that’s safe and effective for most skin types, and many people experience minimal discomfort during the procedure. Our most successful outcomes include six appointments every six weeks.
Ideal candidates for breast implant removal are in good health, maintain a stable weight, and have realistic expectations about this procedure (which we can discuss with you). You may be a good candidate for implant removal if you’ve had your implant for 10 to 15 years, are experiencing complications like capsular contracture, rupture, or discomfort, or if you simply don’t want your implants anymore and prefer a natural look and feel.
If you think you’re a good candidate for breast implant removal surgery, book a consultation with our team today.
Your technician will use a handheld device that emits laser pulses. The size and shape will vary depending on the area being treated. You’ll feel a pricking or snapping sensation with each laser pulse. Some people describe it as a rubber band snapping against the skin.
If you experience significant discomfort, your technician can adjust the laser settings or you can be prescribed a topical numbing agent. (We’ll go over the specifics during your consultation.)
The duration of your laser hair removal session depends on the size of the treated area. Small areas like your upper lip might take minutes, while larger areas like your back could take an hour, or longer.
Following your laser hair removal treatment, it’s normal to experience some temporary side effects including redness, swelling, itching, and sensitivity. Any discomfort you feel should subside within one to two days. If any of these side effects worsen, contact our office.

This treatment is generally well-tolerated, but your individual pain tolerance and the area being treated are important factors. The pricking or snapping sensation may feel like a rubber band snapping against your skin, and you may also feel warmth during the laser pulses.
Yes, shaving within 24 hours prior to your procedure will offer the best results. This allows for better targeting of hair follicles and deeper penetration.
Laser hair removal does not permanently remove hair. But it does offer a long-lasting solution to hair growth. This is largely because the laser targets the pigment (melanin) in your follicle, damaging its ability to grow new hair. It doesn’t necessarily destroy the follicle permanently.
