Laser Hair Removal For All Skin Tones, Including African American Skin

Laser hair removal treatment on diverse skin tones

Laser Hair Removal for African American Skin

According to the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, laser hair removal remains one of the leading non-surgical medical procedures today. With advanced laser hair removal technology you can achieve safe, long-term hair reduction of unwanted hair. Many older laser devices are not appropriate for darker skin tones, such as African American skin. EllEve Med Spa offers Cutera's excel HR system that combines two wavelengths to work well for every skin tone. EllEve Med Spa provides laser hair removal to patients in Woodland Hills, San Fernando Valley, Los Angeles, California, and surrounding locations.

Combination of Two Laser Wavelengths

Cutera pioneered high-powered Nd:YAG laser technology that allows for safe and effective removal of unwanted hair in people with deeper complexions. Today Cutera has combined the Nd:YAG laser with an innovative Alexandrite platform for more successful outcomes across any skin tone. The latest excel HR solution blends this dual-wavelength technology:

  • High-power 755 nm Alexandrite - ideal for removing finer hair on skin types I, II, and III
  • Long-pulse 1064 nm Nd:YAG - safest for removing hair on darker or tanned skin types

Both devices are paired with a superior contact cooling mechanism to ensure better comfort for all skin types during treatment.

Proven Lasers for All Skin Types and Tones

EllEve medical spa uses excel HR, which combines two laser wavelengths considered the gold standard in laser hair removal technology. Melanin pigment in the skin can maximally absorb the 755 nm Alexandrite wavelength, making it an excellent solution for finer hair on multiple skin types. The 1064 nm Nd:YAG is the ideal laser wavelength for long-lasting hair reduction on darker and tanned skin, including African American skin.

Consistent, Uniform-Looking Results

Cutera's truPulse technology delivers sustained, constant laser energy throughout each pulse. This consistency encourages natural-looking results. The index-matching delivery of excel HR leads to more effective coupling of the laser beams to the targeted hair structures. With index matching, backscattered laser light can escape, providing additional protection to the top skin layers without reducing treatment efficacy. Stellar innovation has brought us to this point.

Sapphire Contact Cooling

Sapphire contact cooling in excel HR delivers constant cooling to ensure maximum safety and comfort throughout each session. Patient preference studies show that nearly all patients choose excel HR over comparable technologies for patient comfort and satisfaction. EllEve Med Spa selected excel HR because it is one of the exceptional systems that can treat darker skin tones, including African American skin, without damaging the epidermal layers. EllEve Med Spa receives patients from Woodland Hills, San Fernando Valley, Los Angeles, California, and nearby areas for safe and dependable laser hair removal treatments.
