Laser Hair Removal

Using the Cutera Laser, Laser Hair Removal offers a targeted approach to reducing unwanted hair on the body. Emitting a concentrated light beam absorbs pigment from hair follicles, which disrupts the hair’s growth cycle. This treatment is effective for various body areas, including the legs, arms, back, underarms, and bikini. Known for its precision, it targets coarse, dark hairs without damaging the surrounding skin.

In West Des Moines, IA, Laser Hair Removal suits individuals tired of traditional hair removal methods like shaving, waxing, or plucking. This technology is effective across various types of skin and hair colors, although it works best on those with contrasting hair and skin colors. Results become apparent after the first few treatments, with more permanent results typically observed after several sessions. The duration of effectiveness varies, but many experience long-lasting hair reduction. Book an appointment at Aesthetic Collective in West Des Moines, IA, today to say goodbye to your unwanted hair.
