Laser Hair Removal (Diolaze)

Diolaze at Steffen Med Spa.

A transformative treatment

Is routine hair removal wearing you out? Laser hair removal at Steffen Med Spa is a wonderful, transformative procedure. Steffen Med Spa uses Diolaze — one of the best systems on the market.

The laser energy is delivered in short pulses to break up the pigment at the base of the hair follicle. It takes a few weeks for treated hairs to fall out. Only hairs in the growing phase are susceptible to laser removal, which is why treatments are done in series — several weeks apart — to treat hairs across various stages of growth.

Who’s a candidate?

Men and women are candidates. Laser hair removal works for a variety of hair color and skin tone combinations, but is most effective for dark hairs on a lighter background. Common areas include upper lip, armpits, bikini area, legs, chest, back, and neckbeard.

The experience

Patients need to commit to a schedule to hit the hair follicles when they’re susceptible. The procedure feels like a stinging sensation at the level of the follicle. There’s no downtime — but be careful: laser makes the skin extra sensitive to sun damage.
