Laser Hair Removal for Brown and Black Skin
Many laser hair removal spas still don’t offer safe and effective laser hair removal options for people with brown and Black skin. Traditional lasers can cause burns, discoloration, or ineffective results on deeper skin tones because they aren’t designed to distinguish well between pigment in the hair and pigment in the skin. At ILLUME LaserSpa, we use the advanced YAG laser, which is specially designed to safely target hair follicles without damaging melanin-rich skin.
This technology allows us to provide comfortable, effective treatments for all skin tones, including those with darker complexions. Our YAG clients use laser hair removal for
facial hair removal
body hair removal
removing hair from intimate areas
Laser Hair Removal for dark complexions
The YAG laser works by emitting a wavelength of light that penetrates deeply into the skin to reach the hair follicle without being absorbed by the surrounding skin pigment. This makes it especially safe and effective for individuals with darker skin tones. The laser energy heats the follicle, which slows or stops future hair growth, all while minimizing the risk of burns or discoloration.
