Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair reduction, also known as laser hair removal, is a solution for removing unwanted hair from your body. Here at St. Louis Skin Solutions, we have two different lasers that our specialists use to be able to treat all skin types.
Clarity II
The Clarity II is a Nd:YAG laser with a 1064-nm. The longer pulse of this laser makes it possible to treat patients with darker skin tones. The longer pulse duration and longer wavelength make the 1064 ideal for treating darker-skinned patients due to the reduced scatter and deeper penetration of the laser light.
LightSheer Duet
The LightSheer Duet is a state-of-the-art diode laser with vacuum-assist technology. This laser produces a larger beam of highly concentrated light that is well absorbed by the pigment that is located in the follicles. This laser pulses for a fraction of a second, allowing the hair to absorb the light and heat up. As it heats up, the hair shaft and bulb are damaged, which significantly impedes its ability to re-grow. With the large spot size of the hand piece, the process treats numerous hair follicles simultaneously, which makes the treatment move by swiftly.
