Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal is a finely tuned sophisticated procedure done with the use of laser. The laser emits a gentle beam of light that passes through the skin, to the hair follicle, where it is absorbed. Upon absorption, the laser energy is transformed into heat, which destroys the follicle.

Most patients experience little discomfort at the treatment site because of the laser’s cooling device.

The laser is FDA approved and in general four to six laser treatments five to six weeks apart are required for permanent hair reduction.

Los Gatos Laser and Skin Care offers laser systems for both dark and light skin types. Our patients enjoy the freedom that laser hair removal provides them day to day.
