Patient information by Paradise Medical Center Dermatology Clinic. Clinical director: Dr. Teresa Moreno, DNP, APRN, FNP-BC, DC. Dr. refers to her doctoral nursing degree.
Which areas can be treated?
Full-body treatment is a plan covering agreed areas, not a standard list shared by every clinic. Discuss legs, arms, chest and back separately. Underarms are a smaller treatment zone; face treatment may include the upper lip, chin or sideburns. Bikini-line treatment covers hair outside the underwear line, while a Brazilian treats a broader intimate area. Agree on boundaries, privacy preferences and the areas included before starting.
How does skin tone change the laser choice?
Laser targets pigment in the hair, so the clinician must protect pigment in the surrounding skin. Longer-wavelength Nd:YAG systems are often considered for darker skin; diode and alexandrite devices have different uses. A multi-wavelength platform is not by itself a guarantee of safety. Ask the team to confirm the actual device, wavelength, cooling and settings appropriate for your skin. Recent tanning, irritation and some medications can mean postponing treatment. White, gray and very light hair respond poorly.
What does a treatment course involve?
At the consultation, discuss your hair growth, previous reactions, sun exposure and medicines. The team assesses candidacy and explains preparation, which commonly includes shaving rather than waxing or plucking before treatment. Repeated sessions address different hair-growth cycles; the number and spacing depend on area and response. Expect long-term reduction rather than a promise of permanent removal of every hair. Facial hormonal growth may need ongoing maintenance. Follow the written aftercare instructions and report blisters or persistent discoloration.
