The Sciton Nd:YAG laser hair removal procedure is a popular hair removal procedure performed at Preston Dermatology.
Treatment
The focus on the treatment is permanent hair removal. The laser is safe for all skin types. The Yag laser bypasses the melanin in the skin, focusing on the pigment in the hair itself. After a series of treatments, the hair follicles that were treated in the active phase of growth are injured or destroyed, therefore treatments, but sometimes additional treatments are necessary.
