Permanent Hair Reduction

Undesired or excessive body hair is a common concern of many men and women. The solution is StarLux IPL Permanent Hair Removal for long-lasting results and virtually hair-free skin. Our unique system emits intense pulses of light that is absorbed by the hair follicle disabling the hair to grow. IPL hair removal permanently eliminates or reduces hair on all body areas and most skin types eliminating the need for messy creams, shaving or waxing.

Our Palomar Starlux IPL System

Palomar is a pioneer in light and laser based equipment. They developed the first high-powered laser hair removal system in 1996 and the Starlux IPL is the newest technology available (more powerful than the Medilux). This laser features active contact cooling for maximum comfort— and the IPL is faster than other lasers, and thus we are able to treat large areas in less time. After researching many lasers, we found the Starlux to be most efficient and effective for permanent hair reduction and pigmented lesions.

The Palomar pulsed light handpieces use AccuSpectrum Technology to filter light in the optimal bands of the spectrum for specific treatments. This allows us to choose the best handpiece for the treatments you seek.

Permanent Hair Reduction – LuxR, LuxRs, LuxY

Is IPL hair removal permanent? Yes, hair follicles that have absorbed the energy of the light and have been destroyed (usually 80%) will never grow hair again. Some hair growth may appear after 5-7 treatments but it will be thinner, lighter in color and grow at a much slower rate than before. Since your hair grows in intervals of 3 cycles, we recommend waiting 5-6 weeks in between treatments until your desired result is achieved. Our goal is to target hair growth in the Anagen phase where hair growth is active and contains the most melanin.

  • Emits intense pulses of light that are absorbed by the melanin in the hair follicle disabling the hair to grow
  • 2 treatment heads (R and Rs) to better target different skin types
  • 5-7 treatments 4-6 weeks a part
  • No hair removal other than shaving 6 weeks prior to treatment
  • No sun exposure or self tanning 3-4 weeks prior
  • Ideal candidate is light skin with dark hair but able to treat all skin types
  • Hair grows in 3 cycles and best to target hair in the active growing stage (anagen). Usually 80% of hair is able to be treated (everyone has dormant or sleeping hairs)
  • Treatment time: 1 – 60 minutes depending on body area and coarseness of the hair
