Overview
What is Full body laser hair removal?
Laser hair removal targets the pigment in the hair follicle to reduce regrowth over time. We treat the face and full body, including arms, legs, underarms and back.
Because hair grows in cycles, a course of sessions is needed. Settings are chosen for your skin type, so treatment is safe and effective on brown skin.
