Laser Hair Removal FAQ
Smooth skin starts here.
Laser hair removal is a fast, effective treatment that helps reduce unwanted hair, razor bumps, irritation, and ingrown hairs. Instead of constantly shaving, waxing, or dealing with stubble, laser hair removal targets the hair follicle to help slow and reduce future growth.
At Day2Skin, we use a dual-wavelength laser with Alexandrite 755 nm and Nd:YAG 1064 nm technology. This allows us to safely treat a wide range of skin tones and hair types when the correct settings are used.
What Makes Our Laser Different?
​
-
Our laser uses two powerful wavelengths
​
-
Alexandrite 755 nm
​
-
The Alexandrite wavelength is commonly used for lighter skin tones and is very effective at targeting pigment in the hair follicle. It is great for treating areas like legs, arms, underarms, bikini, lip, chin, and more.
​
-
Nd:YAG 1064 nm
​
-
The Nd:YAG wavelength goes deeper into the skin and is the preferred option for deeper skin tones because it bypasses more surface pigment. This makes it a safer choice for brown and darker skin tones when performed properly.
​
-
Because we have both wavelengths, we can customize your treatment based on your skin tone, hair color, hair thickness, and treatment area.
​
-
Yes, laser hair removal can be safe for all skin tones when the correct laser, settings, and technique are used.
​
-
Darker skin tones need special care because there is more melanin in the skin. That is why the Nd:YAG 1064 nm laser is so important. It is designed to safely target the hair follicle while reducing the risk of burns, discoloration, or irritation when used correctly.

Your safety is always the priority. We will evaluate your skin, hair, medical history, and recent sun exposure before treatment.
