Laser Hair Removal is Safe & Effective for All Skin Tones With The Right Laser

It is a common mistake for people to think laser hair removal does not work on people of colour. Toss that thinking to the curb! Laser hair removal technology has improved dramatically over the past few years to the point where our lasers are more powerful, efficient and safe than they’ve ever been AND they treat ALL skin colours.

Laser hair removal was originally done with  IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) which is an outdated, inefficient technology. IPL should NOT be used on darker skin tones as the results will be highly inferior and it can lead to burns or complications.

At GoLaser, we have left this inferior technology in the past. We use the Candela GentleMax Pro which uses two different lasers in order to optimize the treatment for different skin tones. To treat fair skin it uses the Alexandrite laser and to treat darker skin it uses the Nd: Yag which has a weaker melanin absorption rate and longer wavelengths. This makes it safe and effective on darker skin tones. Our highly trained technicians customize a treatment plan for you based on your exact needs and your unique and beautiful skin requirements.

With the Nd: Yag laser you get both effective hair removal and smooth, undamaged skin. This, unfortunately, was not true with older IPL technology.  IPL’s single laser was not able to effectively target dark hair on dark skin because it worked based on a contrast in colour.

Why Choose GoLaser: More Sessions, Same Great Price with the GoLaser Guarantee

One thing that other clinics often fail to mention is the Nd: Yag laser may require more sessions for optimal results.  You may find yourself buying multiple packages of treatments for a single area.

What makes our GoLaser Guarantee popular is that fact that you can pay a one-time fee and get unlimited treatments at one affordable price plus one free touch up per year for life!  That means not only will you get the smooth, hair-free skin you want now but you can also get yearly touch-up sessions free of charge to help you maintain those good results.

Eliminate Razor Bumps

Folliculitis, inflammation of the hair follicle, is a common skin condition that can occur after shaving. It can be itchy, sore, and embarrassing as the bumps can look red and infected.  With laser hair removal, you can say goodbye to this condition and hello to soft, smooth, and bump-free skin.
