HOW IT WORKS
Our experienced therapists will take your skin and hair type into account before creating a personalized treatment plan.
Our lasers use a large treatment spot size which allows multiple hair follicles to be targeted at the same time.
With each session, hair is reduced. We recommend an initial course of 8-12 treatments, spaced 4 weeks apart (depending on area and skin tone).
