How Laser Hair Removal Works
Laser hair removal targets the pigment in hair follicles with a concentrated beam of light. This energy is absorbed by the pigment, effectively damaging the follicle and preventing future hair growth. We use at our Seattle location is FDA-approved and offers unique advantages:
- Precision: Targets only the hair follicle, leaving surrounding skin unharmed.
- Speed: Treats multiple hair follicles simultaneously, making sessions quick, even for large areas.
- Comfort: Advanced cooling technology keeps skin protected and comfortable throughout the process.
