Laser Hair Removal

ClearScan contains an infrared laser that can selectively target microstructures such as hair follicles. It is very effective for light skinned individuals, and is the laser of choice for darker skinned people because of the relatively low absorption of this light by skin pigment. Unlike other processes, this laser treats many hair follicles at once, making large areas practical. The ClearScan employs a unique computer-guided scanning system that automates the treatment, ensuring that your skin is rapidly and evenly treated. Redness and slight swelling will subside within a few hours. You may need to be treated from 3 to 5 times at intervals of 3 to 8 weeks. Only hairs in the active growth phase can be successfully treated. .
