*The 2011 study from California State University, The correlation between laser hair removal and improved quality of life[1], surveyed 54 subjects before and after they received laser hair removal and found that the procedure’s results lead to a direct “correlation between laser hair removal and improved quality of life”, clearly demonstrating the fantastic results available through the procedure.*

How to get rid of unwanted hair

Laser hair removal is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment that reduces unwanted hair on your face and body.

We use hair removal Toronto technology that is safe for all skin types

The technology used in laser hair removal has advanced rapidly in recent years as researchers have discovered safer and more effective procedural tools and techniques.* The most successful laser hair removal systems make use of highly advanced elōs technology, a development that the study from Chicago’s Northwestern University, Hair removal using a combination radio-frequency and intense pulsed light source[2], has described as providing “effective hair reduction” and “safe treatment for all skin types.” elōs lasers combine the benefits of both optical and radiofrequency (or RF) energy and use them in tandem to effectively destroy unwanted hair.* Optical energy preheats targeted hair follicles and creates a thermal path that allows RF to disable them, leading to reliable and long-lasting hair removal.

Petra Hughes, our master medical aesthetician, shows us how to get great skin in one minute a day by using the various products in the Biophora Kit. She talks about different complexion types and skin tones and how they can all benefit from these amazing skin creams.

Safe treatment that delivers exceptional results with our best laser hair removal machine

At Edelstein Cosmetic, your laser hair removal treatment is designed to give you exceptional results with complete safety. elōs technology delivers energy to the patient’s treatment area more accurately than older laser systems and, because of this, less peripheral damage is done to the skin. Most patients experience only minimal discomfort during the laser hair removal process, even for the removal of ingrown hair that is common, and are also able to recover faster. Because the elōs system uses less optical energy—and targets it more accurately—most patients experience less negative reactions than other technologies. Laser hair removal side effects that do occur tend to be mild and limited, such as short-term skin reddening, tenderness and sensitivity to light. You’ll be able to return to your normal schedule almost immediately following treatment.

The National Medical Center in San Diego published research into the results provided by the type of lasers used at Edelstein Cosmetic (a combination of bipolar radiofrequency and diode laser) and found a “50% hair reduction after an average of 1.9 treatments” with “a high degree of patient satisfaction”[3]. Does laser hair removal work? According to research and the experiences of our patients, the answer is yes.

If you suffer from unwanted hair, laser hair removal provides an exceptional solution that allows you to address the problem quickly and safely.

Your consultation

A consultation with our master medical aesthetician is arranged first to make sure laser hair removal is right for you. You’ll also get a free test patch as part of the consultation. Darker skin types must wait a couple of weeks after the initial test patch before beginning treatment, just to ensure that no negative side effects result.

How laser hair removal can help me

Modern laser hair removal equipment allows patients of all skin and hair colours to experience the kind of results they desire. Older laser treatments (or systems that still use only optical energy) target the melanin in the hair to destroy the follicle. The combination of RF and optical energy used in elōs provides better results, allowing patients with features that are typically hard to treat, such as light hair and fair or tanned skin, the desirable results they expect. You can get rid of unwanted hair in the following areas:

• Forehead
• Cheeks
• Upper Lip
• Chin
• Sideburns
• Neck
• Arms
• Underarms
• Hands
• Chest
• Back
• Stomach
• Bikini
• Brazilian Laser Hair Removal
• Legs

Ingrown hair removal can also be safely performed with the laser hair removal machine.

There’s no reason to suffer from unwanted hair any longer. Call Edelstein Cosmetic today at (416) 256-5614 to enjoy the freedom of smoother, hair-free skin at our Toronto laser hair removal clinic.
