What is Long Pulsed Laser Hair Removal?

Long Pulsed Laser Hair Removal is an advanced medical-grade treatment that uses controlled laser energy delivered in longer pulse durations to safely and effectively target hair follicles.

The laser emits light that is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair. This energy is converted into heat, which damages the hair follicle and inhibits future growth—while preserving the surrounding skin.
