Hair Reduction along 30A & South Walton, FL
If you are tired of temporary hair removal techniques such as shaving or waxing, then you may want to look into a treatment that produces more permanent results, such as laser hair removal with the Cynosure Elite IQ™. This laser is designed with the most advanced technology in laser hair removal for the most effective results available today. Using Skintel® technology, this device has the only FDA-approved melanin reader, which adjusts to your exact skin color and type, finding the perfect setting just for you.
Prior to your laser hair removal procedure, the treatment area should be clean-shaven. During the procedure, the Skintel® melanin reader will then be used to measure the skin and adjust treatment settings according to your skin type. The laser handpiece will then be guided over the skin. During this time, the handpiece will emit beams of laser energy which is absorbed by hair follicles and converted to heat, disabling hair follicle growth.
Gradual results can often be seen over time, and multiple treatments are often needed for the best outcomes. The exact number of treatments that are needed will be dependent on the size of the area being treated. Each session usually takes less than 30 minutes to complete.
