Oh those stubborn stalks that sprout on our faces! They cause a lot of unnecessary grief, not to mention secret embarrassment. But take heart: they’re a very common problem. If you’re stuck in the endless cycle of plucking and waxing, say no more. It’s time for laser hair removal.

Using a state-of-the-art Candela® laser, our laser specialist can end your endless cycle of unwanted hair. It’s less painful than plucking and waxing. And in most cases, you’ll experience permanent reduction.

How many treatments are needed?
You see reduction even after one session, but to get long lasting hair reduction we recommend 3-5 treatments, anywhere from 4-8 weeks apart depending on the area being treated.

Does it hurt?
It is a popping sensation. Many say it hurts less than waxing. It is tolerated by most but if it is uncomfortable, a numbing cream can be applied prior to treatment. Following the treatment the skin may be red and the hair follicles often have some swelling for 24 hours. A mild itching sensation may also occur.

Do I need to let the hair grow out before I start treatment?
No. Simply shave or trim the hair that you would like removed the day of your treatment. For the best results we recommend no plucking or waxing for 1 month prior to treatment.

Does it work on all hair?
No, unfortunately it only works on dark hair. There is not a laser that can treat the white hair that occurs on the face. The laser is targeting the dark color in the hair follicle. The laser works best when the skin is not tan so that the laser can see the dark hair.

Are there any side effects?
If the skin is tan there can be some darkening or lightening seen after the treatments. This resolves with time.
