Our Laser Hair Removal Machines
A recent scientific advance in medical laser technology gives us a gentler, safer and faster solution to the problem of unwanted hair. It's called TKS, and it's only available in the type of laser used at this facility.
Our Cynosure Elite Laser System has a 755 Alexandrite and a 1064 YAG wavelength, which is the most advanced technology available. What that means is we can effectively treat any skin type without complications or adverse side effects with the energy levels required to disable the hair follicles.
In addition to our Cynosure Elite Laser, we use a cold-air cooling system, which provides extra comfort while the laser is in use and helps to numb the treated area.

How does the laser work?
The laser emits a gentle beam of energy that is absorbed by the pigment melanin in the hair, and passes through the hair to the hair follicle. The energy is then transformed into heat, which damages the follicle such that it can no longer produce hair. The scientific principle called Thermokinetic Selectivity (TKS) makes this method of hair removal particularly effective.
TopWhy is TKS important?
TKS makes it possible for laser energy to "select" only hair follicles, while sparing surrounding skin from damage. This brings the cosmetic results you want with the clinical results you need.
TopHow do I know if I'm a good candidate for laser hair removal?
If you are concerned about unwanted hair, you are probably a good candidate for laser hair removal. Nearly everyone is a candidate for hair removal with the Cynosure laser. People with natural photosensitivity, people with immune system disorders, or those that are taking medication that makes them photosensitive cannot be treated.
The most dramatic results occur for patients with light skin and dark hair, however TKS makes it possible for people with dark skin tones to also receive great results. Some factors that influence the treatment process are skin color, hair color, pain tolerance and hormones.
TopIs the treatment painful?
Most patients describe the treatment as a series of slight pin pricks to the skin. The majority of patients tolerate this sensation without requiring anesthetics. However, application of numbing cream prior to the treatment may be used to desensitize the skin area. Within about 30 minutes of treatment, the area may become pink or red, and this may last from a few hours to one day.
TopHow many treatments are required?
Hair grows in cycles. The laser only affects hair when it is in its early-growth phase. The laser will disable follicles that are actively producing hair at the time of treatment. At any time, some hair follicles are dormant. Repeat sessions will treat these follicles when they re-enter the growth phase.
Other factors that influence the treatment process are skin color, hair color, pain tolerance and hormones. Due to these factors, the number of treatments varies. On the average, patients can expect to see 90-95% hair reduction within six to eight treatments. The number of treatments also varies with the body area being treated.
