Laser hair removal is the go-to solution for people looking to bring time and money back into their daily routines. Our highly skilled laser technicians use targeted light energy to remove unwanted hair in 60 minutes or less. By administering concentrated light in hair follicles, the pigment in your hair absorbs the light and safely destroys unwanted hair.

Laser hair removal provides beautiful, long-lasting results. To get the best out of your treatment, Shahinaz Soliman, MD suggests a series of three to six treatments spaced six to eight weeks apart.
You might be surprised to learn that sweat itself doesn’t have an odor. Bacteria that’s combined with a mixture of bacteria and sweat can give off an unpleasant smell. Armpits provide a warm and rich environment for bacteria to thrive, and when hair is present, it traps odor-causing bacteria.
Laser hair removal eliminates up to 25% of hair in a single session, which also leads to noticeably less sweat and odor-causing bacteria. You’ll feel more confident wearing tank tops at all hours of the day while having dry, smooth, and fresh underarms.
If you like the sounds of laser hair removal, you might be wondering if it hurts. Though it isn’t completely painless, most of our patients tolerate it well and describe the feeling as being similar to a rubber band snapping on your skin.
Small treatment areas take only about 15 minutes for one session, but large areas, like the legs, take around an hour. Our patients report laser hair removal to be more comfortable than waxing and tweezing.
The best part? Your results last two to six years! Once you start to notice hair growth again, just come in for a maintenance session to keep your hair at bay, so you have smooth, touchable skin again. Easy, peasy, lemon squeezy!
