Laser Hair Removal in La Quinta and Palm Desert at the Offices of Dr. Ken Jesser

At the Vein Specialists Institute, located in La Quinta and Palm Desert, we offer advanced laser hair removal treatments that permanently eliminate unwanted hair from your face and body. Utilizing state-of-the-art technology, our laser treatment is designed to be virtually painless, ensuring a comfortable experience as we help you achieve smooth, hair-free skin.

How does laser hair removal work?

Our laser hair removal technology delivers concentrated laser energy that specifically targets the dark pigment within hair follicles. This energy is gentle enough to avoid damaging your skin or pores while effectively disabling the hair follicles, preventing future hair growth.

What areas can you treat with laser hair removal?

Anywhere on your body that you have unwanted hair can be treated with laser hair removal. This includes your:

    • Upper lip and chin
    • Arms and legs
    • Underarms
    • Back and chest
    • Bikini area

Whether you’re a man or woman, the team at the Vein Specialists Institute can treat multiple areas in a single session, making it convenient for you to achieve your desired results.

If you have multiple areas to treat, the Vein Specialists Institute team can do them in one session. Both men and women benefit from laser hair removal.

How many laser hair removal sessions will I need?

Most people need more than one session to achieve smooth, hair-free skin. The team customizes your treatment plan for you, but usually, it takes four to six sessions to get the best results. Exactly how many sessions you’ll need depends on the size of the area treated and the density of the hair there.

Does laser hair removal hurt?

Thanks to advanced technology, laser hair removal at the offices of Dr. Ken Jesser is nearly pain-free. Our devices deliver energy in a gentle manner, avoiding the painful heat and light blasts often associated with older laser systems.
After treatment, you may experience slight pinkness, which typically fades quickly.

What should I do to prepare for laser hair removal?

To ensure the effectiveness of your laser hair removal treatment:
• Avoid waxing, plucking, or electrolysis for at least six weeks before your appointment, as these methods remove the hair root needed for effective treatment.
• Do not shave before your session, as this can affect results.
• Avoid tanning—both in the sun and tanning beds—prior to treatment, as tanned skin can hinder the laser’s effectiveness. Post-treatment, it’s essential to protect your skin from sun exposure, as it will be temporarily sensitive.
