Laser Hair Removal in Pasadena, CA

Laser hair removal is a cosmetic procedure that uses concentrated light beams to remove undesirable hair.

​

A laser emits light energy, which the pigment in the hair absorbs. The heat from the laser damages the hair follicles, thus delaying or inhibiting future hair growth.

​

Though laser hair removal impedes hair growth for long periods, it typically is not a permanent solution. Multiple laser hair removal treatments are necessary for initial hair removal, and you may require maintenance sessions. Laser hair removal is most effective for people with dark hair and lighter skin tones, but it can be successful on all skin types.

​

Laser hair removal is a popular procedure for men and women. For men, common treatment areas are the back, chest, face, and neck. Women most often opt to have the procedure on the abdomen, bikini line, legs, underarms, face, and upper lip.

​

Laser hair removal is the ultimate hair removal treatment. It uses high-intensity laser light to find and destroy hair follicles with heat. Laser light finds hair by its color or pigment. The darker and coarser the hair color, the easier the laser can pinpoint the follicles and destroy their ability to grow. The laser cannot remove gray or white hair.
