Laser and light treatments for skin have progressed vastly over the last few decades. Patients now have multiple treatment options that can help them with a wide range of skin-related problems, including scars and tattoos, unwanted hair, psoriasis, acne, wrinkles, pigmentation, or melasma.

Laser Hair Removal (LHR)

Removal of body hair using laser treatment is one of the most common uses of laser therapy these days. Laser hair removal (or LHR) uses pulses of laser light to destroy targeted hair follicles so that over time, hair regrowth will be less, and the regrown hair will be lighter and finer. LHR can be used to remove unwanted hair from any part of the body, including face, chest, leg, chin, back, arm, underarm, bikini line, and other areas. Since the laser light can be targeted very precisely, it impacts only the hair follicles and leaves the surrounding skin undamaged. LHR is a process that involves more than merely zapping the hair.
