What is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal is a highly effective treatment that uses a targeted laser technology. That laser energy is absorbed by the pigment in the hair. This is then converted to heat, which damages the hair follicles and inhibits future hair growth. Laser hair removal can be used on the legs, chest, arms, back, bikini line, upper lip, and more.
At Erwin Dermatology, we use the Cynosure Elite IQ laser system for hair removal. To start, we use the Skintel technology to read the melanin in the hair follicles and skin and adjust the laser system for your exact skin color and skin type.
Beyond hair removal, the Cynosure Elite treatment can also address sun damage, pigmentation concerns, wrinkles, and unwanted veins.
