A specially designed laser applicator is placed over the desired area and laser energy is delivered. This energy travels down the hair shaft heating it and absorbing the light-based energy from the laser. The absorption of the laser energy results in heat that spreads out from the hair shaft up to the cells in charge of hair growth and future hair follicles, thus stopping its production. To achieve the best results, an examination must be performed in order to select the right combinations of wavelengths for your specific type of skin.

After a successful treatment, you will notice the smell of photocoagulation (burnt hair shafts) as well as little red bumps and swellings around the hair shafts. You will also notice the extrusion of dead hair shafts over the first 7 to 21 days following your treatment. With our Nd Yag and Motus AX systems, hair removal procedure is virtually painless. It utilizes a cooled saphire tip to make your hair removal experience pain free.
