  Any medical laser procedure can be a bit intimidating at first. Learn more about Pain-Free, Hair-Free™ here, so you'll feel completely comfortable with the procedure.

Is it safe?
Hair removal is one of the aesthetic medical industry's most well-known and researched uses of lasers. Pain-Free, Hair-Free's Soprano®XL laser has provided permanent hair reduction for thousands of patients worldwide, safely and successfully since it was cleared by the FDA in 2005.
How many treatments will I need?
There are a number of factors that can affect the success of a series of hair removal treatments, but generally, after each treatment, you'll see a noticeable, permanent reduction in the number of hairs that regrow in the treatment area. Typically, it will require 4 - 6 treatments or more to permanently reduce the number of regrowing hairs by more than 80%, six months after the last treatment.
Will my hair ever grow back?
The short answer is no. Once the hair follicle is damaged, it cannot grow new hair. However, there are invariably a few hair follicles that manage to partially escape the laser during each treatment. Some of these follicles may be only stunned and will need to be retreated.
Do I need to plan for time off, for the treatments?
No. Pain-Free, Hair-Free requires no "down time" or recovery time. You can have a treatment and return to work or school immediately.
How do I know it won't hurt?
Most people find Pain-Free, Hair-Free very comfortable. While pain tolerance is subjective, many patients often describe the sensation as soothing as a "hot stone massage." If you find it otherwise, talk with your doctor or laser technician.
How much does it cost?
Pain-Free, Hair-Free treatment costs vary by location. Please schedule an appointment at our office and ask for a quotation. Compared with a lifetime of shaving, waxing or plucking, Pain-Free, Hair-Free can be a worthwhile investment in both time and money-savings.
 


 
"I am very satisfied with my results from my laser hair removal with the Alma SHR system. I recommend it to everyone. Every hairy woman should do it."
Isuara R., 26, Glendale, AZ

"Recently I had a first-time client for laser hair removal. She was coming in for hair removal on her lip and was a little nervous about how it would feel. I suggested we try it on her underarm first before proceeding to her lip. We lasered one underarm and then her lip. She was surprised at how comfortable it was to have it done. Today she was back for her second treatment and she said, 'I am so mad at you.' I asked why. 'I can't believe what a dramatic difference that made in one treatment – now I need to do my other underarm.' It is amazing what dramatic results you can get so quickly."
Gail Gomez, RN, Laser User, Glow Medical Spa, Phoenix, AZ

"Our clients and technicians love the SopranoXL. Treatments can be performed quickly and safely. The IN-Motion treatment is much less tedious for our technicians. Since we are doing multiple passes, we don't have to worry about missed spots, or double-pulsing our clients. Several clients have described the treatment as feeling like a 'warm massage.' Ellen G., who started treatments with the conventional mode on the Soprano, came in for her third treatment after we had upgraded to the XL, and her comment of, 'Wow, that was way better' sums up general client sentiment to the treatment. The results we are seeing in our clients are equal to or better than those we saw with the conventional method. With the conventional method, clients with low pain tolerance may not have seen ideal results because we were limited in how much energy we were able to treat them with. The SHR mode on the SopranoXL takes pain out of the equation and allows everyone to get an effective treatment and excellent results."
Chris Bailey, Owner, Skinovative Galleria, Houston, TX
