Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal is a long-term solution for reducing and removing unwanted hair using advanced laser technology. The procedure targets the pigment in hair follicles with a concentrated beam of light, which penetrates the skin and precisely destroys active hair follicles, inhibiting future hair growth.
We treat with both the Aerolase Neo Elite and Sharplight systems, selecting the platform for each appointment according to the treatment area, hair characteristics and your skin type. Aerolase delivers a 650-microsecond pulse that is gentle enough for the face and deeper skin tones without gels or cooling tips, while Sharplight is well suited to larger body areas.
Both are FDA and Health Canada approved and operated by trained Medical Aestheticians and laser technicians. Your treatment plan is confirmed per area following a complimentary consultation.
