When it comes to removing unwanted hair, there are several options, but not all are equally effective or long-lasting. Shaving, waxing, and depilatory creams offer quick results, but they only address the hair shaft at or just below the skin’s surface. These methods often lead to irritation, ingrown hairs, and the need for frequent maintenance.

Laser hair reduction, on the other hand, offers a more permanent solution by targeting the root of the hair within the follicle. The laser emits a focused beam of light that is absorbed by the melanin (pigment) in the hair. This light energy converts to heat, which damages the follicle’s ability to produce new hair. Over a series of treatments, hair grows back finer, lighter, and more sparsely—often with long-term reduction.

How Does Clarity II Laser Hair Reduction Work?

While historically laser hair reduction has worked best on individuals with lighter skin and darker hair, newer laser technologies have expanded options for a wider range of skin tones. We proudly feature Clarity II from Cynosure Lutronic, which is safe and effective in all skin tones. It’s important to note that laser hair reduction requires multiple sessions, spaced several weeks apart, and is not fully permanent, though it significantly reduces regrowth over time. It also, unfortunately, will not work on gray hairs.

If you’re looking for smoother skin with less maintenance, laser hair reduction is a safe, effective, and increasingly popular option.

How Does It Work?

Your laser hair reduction session may last anywhere from 15-30 minutes, depending on the size of your treatment area. The exciting thing about this laser is that if your hair does grow back, it will be much finer than before. This benefit, coupled with how tolerable laser hair reduction is, makes this treatment a great replacement for traditional razor shaving. For the best hair removal for men and women, we welcome you to make an appointment today.
