Laser hair removal is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses highly concentrated beams of light to destroy hair follicles and inhibit future hair growth. It's considered one of the most effective methods for achieving long-term or even permanent hair reduction. Unlike shaving or waxing, laser hair removal targets the root of the problem, providing smoother skin with fewer maintenance sessions.

A:

Laser hair removal works by targeting melanin in the hair shaft. The heat generated by the laser travels down to the root, destroying the hair follicle and disabling further growth. Over a series of treatments, this leads to permanent hair removal or long-term hair reduction depending on individual factors like skin type and hair thickness. Laser hair removal helps avoid common issues such as ingrown hairs, razor burns, and frequent shaving.

At Med Spa Metodica, laser hair removal is performed using the Splendor X device. This FDA-approved equipment, developed by Lumenis, is recognized as one of the safest and most effective solutions for hair removal across all skin types.

Splendor X is the latest-generation hair reduction laser machine developed to treat all skin types, including darker skin tones. Unlike many traditional hair removal devices, it combines two gold-standard laser technologies — Alexandrite (755nm) and Nd:YAG (1064nm) — in a powerful hybrid system known as BLEND X. This dual-wavelength delivery ensures superior results whether you're treating large areas like laser hair removal for legs or small, sensitive spots like facial or bikini zones.

Splendor X is ideal for people with any skin type, from fair to dark. It’s one of the few technologies offering truly safe and effective laser hair removal for black skin, darker skinned clients, and mixed ethnicities. Whether you want full body laser hair reduction, armpit hair removal, laser hair removal legs, or laser hair removal bikini area, this device provides consistent, even results.

Most clients see excellent results in 6–8 sessions, depending on the area and hair density. The number of treatments also varies by hormone levels, genetics, and whether you’ve used other methods like depilatory creams or electrolysis vs laser hair removal in the past.

After your initial course of treatments, you may need a maintenance session once or twice a year. To keep your skin smooth:

• Avoid sun exposure before and after each session.

• Follow post-laser care from our board certified aesthetician.

• Don’t wax or pluck between sessions (shaving is okay).
