What Is
Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal is a treatment for individuals who want to permanently remove or reduce unwanted hair on the face or body. This medical treatment uses a concentrated beam of light to damage hair follicles and removes unwanted hair from specific areas such as the upper lip, chin, legs, and back. Please see our pricing menu for a full list of laser hair treatment areas..
HOW DOES
Laser Hair Removal Work?
Skin Essence is a laser medspa that works with an advanced laser hair removal technology which can permanently reduce unwanted hair.
Our laser emits a beam of light that is absorbed by the melanin pigment in your hair follicle. This light energy is converted into heat, which causes damage to your hair follicles, inhibiting the growth of your hair and delaying the growth of future hair.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
How Can Infrared Light Therapy Help with Pain Management?Poor circulation and the lack of oxygen and other essential molecules (i.e., glucose, Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP)) in blood vessels can cause pain or a lack of sensation. Light energy stimulates the release of nitric oxide, causing blood vessels to increase in diameter (vasodilation) and allowing more blood flow, oxygen, and other important factors to be delivered. This increase in oxygen and nutrients, along with stimulation of the light energy emitted from Celluma LED devices increases ATP production, which activates pain relieving pathways. This decreases pain and inflammation, and increases tissue regeneration in the localized area.

How can Blue Light Therapy Eliminate Acne Faster?If you suffer from acne, it’s likely you’ve heard of light therapy as a possible solution to your pimple woes. LED blue light therapy is the new wave of skin care for people who have tried other acne treatments, but still aren’t seeing the results they want. Light therapy used to only be available at a dermatologist’s or aestheticians office, but with the advent of affordable, effective, at-home light therapy device design, blue light for acne is becoming a household treatment that’s non-toxic, non-invasive, and really, really effective. LED light therapy works by killing acne-causing bacteria at the source, deep beneath the skin’s surface. As people across the nation are searching for more natural, chemical-free alternatives to traditional medical solutions, light therapy fits the bill perfectly. Blue LED light therapy emits specific, clinically-proven wavelengths of light to trigger an all-natural effect in human tissue, killing acne-causing bacteria, decreasing inflammation, and improving skin tone, texture, and clarity from the inside out. However, not all light therapy is created equal. Blue and red LED light light-therapy is widely used as an effective option for the treatment of inflammatory acne. One study concluded that “…blue light and red light may act synergistically in improving acne by combining antibacterial and anti-inflammatory action, rendering phototherapy with blue and/or red light an effective and safe treatment for acne vulgaris.
