Laser Hair Removal Redondo Beach, Long Beach & Manhattan Beach

At Marcus Medical, we typically recommend 6-8 sessions for best results, as hair grows in cycles and each treatment targets new hair follicles.

Our advanced laser technology can effectively treat multiple areas, including the face, arms, legs, bikini area, chest, and back. During your consultation, we’ll personalize a treatment plan based on your goals.

To ensure safety and efficacy, avoid sun exposure, tanning, and any hair removal methods that pull the root (such as waxing or plucking) before and after each session. Our team will provide you with specific aftercare instructions tailored to your skin.

Most clients experience only mild redness or slight swelling in the treated area, which subsides within a few hours. Our team will monitor your skin’s reaction to ensure optimal comfort and safety.

Session length depends on the area being treated. Smaller areas, like the upper lip, can take just a few minutes, while larger areas, like the legs, may take up to an hour. We’ll give you an estimated time during your initial consultation.

Most patients describe the sensation as a mild snapping feeling against the skin—much more comfortable than waxing or electrolysis. At Marcus Medical, we use the Palomar Vectus® Laser, which features advanced cooling technology to reduce discomfort. For added comfort, a topical numbing cream can be applied, making the treatment quick and virtually pain-free.

While laser hair removal is safe for most people, it may not be recommended if you:

• Are pregnant or breastfeeding
• Have an active skin infection, rash, or open wound in the treatment area
• Recently had heavy sun exposure or tanning
• Are taking photosensitizing medications (such as certain antibiotics or acne treatments)
• Have a history of keloid scarring or uncontrolled skin conditions
