How Laser Hair Removal Works
During the process of hair removal, a laser emits light that is absorbed by the melanin (colour) in the hair. This energy converts to heat that impairs the hair follicle, delaying and stopping future hair growth.
Our top-of-the-line machine by CUTERA ensures long-term results as it has two wave lengths specific for hair removal. This device allows us to treat all skin types.
