Laser Hair Removal for Dark Skin Tones

For decades laser hair removal only worked to remove dark hair on lighter skin – and was unsafe for use on dark skin tones. But at Advanced Laser Skin Care & Spa in the Warren, MI area, we offer state-of-the-art Elos laser hair removal that is safe and effective for all hair and skin colors – even dark skin tones.

Elos Laser Hair Removal for Dark Skin

Unwanted hair can be a constant frustration for many men and women. Shaving, waxing, and/or plucking is a never-ending task, that can be painful, can irritate the skin and cause unsightly razor bumps. And, hair removal can be especially challenging for those with darker skin tones. Not only do people with darker skin tones tend to have more and thicker hair that grows more rapidly – but many laser hair removal treatments are not safe or effective on darker skin.

Fortunately, Elos laser hair removal solves this problem. Elos offers considerable advancement in medical laser hair removal. Not only is Elos laser hair removal safe, virtually painless and offers longer lasting results – it also is not limited in use on certain skin types, hair colors, or skin tone or tan.

The new Elos system is the only laser hair removal technology to successfully tackle these obstacles – while also being among the the fastest, safest, and most effective hair removal solutions on the market.

How Elos Laser Hair Removal Works on Dark Skin

Advanced Laser Skin Care & Spa is one of the the first and only Med Spas in the Warren, MI area to offer a complete laser hair removal system using the revolutionary ELOS (Electro–Optical–Synergy) system. Elos innovative technology combines Bi–Polar Radio Frequency (RF) with a high power Diode Laser, which results in requiring lower overall energy levels for maximum safety and comfort.

Traditional laser hair removal worked by targeting the pigment in the hair follicle and destroying it – so it only worked on darker hair (that absorbs the laser heat) and lighter skin (that does not absorb the laser). This meant that white, blond and even red hair could not be treated by traditional lasers because the hair lacked pigment. And traditional laser hair removal also could not be used on dark or tanned skin, because the pigment in the skin absorbed the laser heat and would singe or burn.

But ELOS laser hair removal rises above the rest with Diode laser combined with radiofrequency that is “colorblind” and safe for all skin types, including dark or tanned skin.

Elos Laser Hair Removal Results

Because hair grows in cycles, with not all follicles producing hair at the same time, six treatments are usually necessary for permanent hair reduction. However, the actual number of Elos laser hair removal treatments needed for optimal long–term benefits depend upon hair density, hair color, skin type, and the size of the area being treated. Typically, light colored hair will require more treatments than darker hair.

Because the Elos laser scans the skin rather than treating one hair at a time, even large areas of the body, like the back and legs, can be treated quickly.

Good Candidates for Elos Laser Hair Removal

Elos laser hair removal is ideal for almost any man or woman who desires smooth, hair-free skin, and can be performed on almost any area of the body. It is the first and only technology that can remove hair of all colors on all skin types and tones – even darker skin.

Additionally, Elos laser hair removal delivers the same type of long–lasting results offered by electrolysis – with much less pain and far fewer treatments at a fraction of the cost.

Other Benefits of Elos Laser Hair Removal

While Elos technology excels at providing safe, effective laser hair removal for darker skin tones, its benefits extend well beyond being compatibile with all skin tones. The combination of optical energy and radiofrequency that makes Elos unique also delivers a more comfortable treatment experience overall. The radiofrequency component allows providers to use lower light energy levels while still achieving excellent results, which means less discomfort during your sessions compared to traditional laser systems. Most clients describe the sensation as a warm, tolerable feeling rather than the sharp snapping associated with older laser hair removal technologies.

Elos laser hair removal also works effectively on a wider range of hair colors and textures than many conventional systems. The dual-energy approach can target finer hairs that pure optical lasers sometimes miss, leading to smoother, more complete results. Treatment sessions tend to be quick, with smaller areas like the underarms or upper lip taking just minutes, while larger areas like legs or back can be completed efficiently in a single appointment. For clients visiting Advanced Laser Skin Care & Spa from the Warren area and neighboring communities, this efficiency makes fitting laser hair removal into busy schedules much easier.

The results speak for themselves: most clients experience significant permanent hair reduction after a series of treatments, with hair that does regrow coming in finer and lighter. Many people find they can stop shaving and waxing entirely, saving countless hours and eliminating the razor bumps, ingrown hairs, and skin irritation that come with temporary hair removal methods.
