How Laser Hair Removal Works
The process of laser hair removal uses highly concentrated energy where light is emitted to targeted hair follicles. The laser’s energy is attracted to the pigment of hair. This damage inhibits or delays future growth of hair. With every treatment, you’ll progressively see fewer and fewer hairs return.
What Laser Hair Removal Treats
Laser hair removal permanently reduces or eliminates unwanted hair on the face and body.
