Tired of shaving, waxing, plucking, or dealing with ingrown hairs? At Neighborhood Wellness Clinic & Medical Spa, we offer advanced laser hair removal treatments using ICON™, XEO™, and Clarity II™ laser technology to help reduce unwanted hair safely and effectively on many areas of the face and body.
Smooth skin starts with a customized treatment plan.
Laser hair removal is a non-surgical treatment that uses concentrated light energy to target hair follicles and reduce future hair growth. The laser energy is drawn to pigment within the hair follicle, helping damage the follicle so it becomes less capable of producing new hair over time.
At Neighborhood Wellness Clinic & Medical Spa, our laser hair removal program uses ICON™, XEO™, and Clarity II™ technology to treat unwanted hair on many areas of the body. Treatment plans are personalized based on hair color, hair density, skin tone, treatment area, and your long-term goals.
What Is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal uses focused light energy to target unwanted hair at the follicle. Because hair grows in cycles, laser hair removal is performed as a series rather than a one-time treatment.
Many patients notice that treated hair becomes thinner, finer, and less noticeable throughout their treatment plan. While results vary, laser hair removal is generally considered long-term hair reduction rather than a guarantee that every hair will be permanently eliminated.

Who Is a Candidate?
Many patients are candidates for laser hair removal. In general, laser hair removal works best on darker hair because the laser targets pigment within the follicle. White, gray, very blonde, and red hair may not respond as effectively because there is less pigment for the laser to target.
A consultation allows your provider to evaluate your hair color, hair density, skin tone, medical history, medications, recent sun exposure, and treatment goals. Your provider will also determine whether ICON™, XEO™, Clarity II™, or another treatment approach is the best fit for your skin and hair type.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
Laser hair removal is a process. Hair grows in multiple cycles, and only hairs in the active growth phase respond optimally to laser energy. For that reason, a series of treatments is typically recommended.
Many patients begin with approximately 6–8 sessions, though the exact number depends on the treatment area, hair thickness, hormonal influences, device selection, and individual response.
Preparing for Treatment
Proper preparation helps improve safety and results. Your provider will give you personalized instructions based on your treatment area, skin type, device selection, and treatment settings.
What Happens During Treatment?
Before treatment, your provider will review the treatment area, recent sun exposure, medications, and any relevant medical updates. Protective eyewear is worn during treatment.
Many patients describe laser pulses as feeling similar to a quick rubber band snap against the skin. Sessions may be quick for small areas such as the upper lip, while larger areas like the legs or back take longer.
After treatment, temporary redness, warmth, or mild swelling may occur. Your provider will review aftercare instructions, including sun protection.
