Treatment
Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal targets follicular melanin to reduce regrowth over a course of sessions, using diode (808 nm) and long-pulse 1064 nm platforms suited to a broad range of skin types.

Overview
Laser hair removal targets melanin in the hair follicle with controlled light or laser energy to reduce regrowth over a course of treatments.
Wavelength selection matters. 808 nm balances melanin absorption and depth for general use, while 1064 nm penetrates more deeply and is suited to darker skin types. A clinician sets parameters and cooling per patient.
The DioLase Titanium diode platform anchors high-volume hair removal, while the DPL Elite and the Pro 1 Pico long-pulse 1064 nm mode support selected protocols. This page is educational; suitability is determined by a trained provider.

FAQs
Which Pro 1 Laser devices support laser hair removal?
The DioLase Titanium diode platform, the DPL Elite light platform, and the Pro 1 Pico's long-pulse 1064 nm mode are all used in hair-reduction protocols.
How many sessions are typical?
Hair grows in cycles, so a course of treatments is used. The number depends on the area, hair characteristics, skin type, and provider settings.
Does it work on darker skin?
Long-pulse 1064 nm is the wavelength used for darker skin because it is less absorbed by surface melanin; settings and cooling are selected by a trained provider.
Is it suitable for light, grey, or white hair?
Laser hair removal targets pigment in the follicle, so it is most effective on darker hair; light, grey, or white hair responds less predictably.
How long between sessions?
Sessions are typically spaced several weeks apart to match the hair growth cycle; a provider sets the interval for each treatment area.
