Frequently Asked Questions

What is laser therapy and how does it work?

Laser therapy is a safe, effective, and commonly used treatment, providing optimal results in areas such as the removal of unwanted hair, skin rejuvenation, wrinkle reduction, leg veins, and the treatment of other skin problems.

Lasers work by delivering an intense beam of light that is absorbed by the skin. This light is converted to heat and is absorbed by the cells being targeted, while leaving the surrounding tissue unaffected.

You and your practitioner will wear safety glasses to protect your eyes during the procedure.  The doctor will use a small headpiece that touches your skin to deliver the light.  You may feel a light spray of coolant on your skin before each laser pulse.
