Laser Hair Removal
Reclaim your time and confidence with permanent hair reduction—precision laser technology delivering smooth, hair-free skin with minimal discomfort and maximum results.
How Laser Hair Removal Works
Laser hair removal uses targeted light energy to permanently reduce unwanted hair by disabling hair follicles at their root. The laser emits a specific wavelength of light absorbed by melanin (pigment) in the hair follicle. This absorption generates heat that damages the follicle’s ability to produce new hair, resulting in progressive, long-term hair reduction.
Colorado Skin & Vein utilizes the Apogee Elite laser system—featuring both 755 nm Alexandrite and 1064 nm Nd:YAG wavelengths. This dual-laser technology safely treats all skin types and hair colors, from fine blonde hair to coarse dark hair, with precision calibration for your unique skin tone and hair type.
With over 20 years of laser expertise, Dr. David Verebelyi and Christina Jordan, FNP, CANS, deliver customized treatments ensuring optimal comfort, safety, and lasting results.

Laser Hair Removal FAQ
Is laser hair removal permanent?
Laser hair removal provides permanent hair reduction. Most patients achieve 80-95% reduction after 4-6 treatments. Hair that regrows is typically finer, lighter, and sparser. Maintenance treatments may be needed long-term depending on hormonal factors.
Does laser hair removal hurt?
Most patients describe minimal discomfort—a brief snapping or tingling sensation with each pulse. Our Zimmer Chiller delivers continuous cool air during treatment, significantly reducing discomfort. Pain level is far less than waxing.
Is laser hair removal safe for all skin types?
Yes. Our Apogee Elite’s dual-wavelength technology (755 nm Alexandrite and 1064 nm Nd:YAG) safely treats all skin tones, from very fair to very dark. We customize wavelength, pulse duration, and energy levels to your specific skin type.
What hair colors can be treated?
Laser hair removal works best on dark hair (brown, black) because the laser targets melanin. Lighter brown hair responds well with our advanced technology.
How many treatments will I need?
Most patients need 4-6 treatments for optimal results. Treatment frequency depends on the area (facial hair every 4-6 weeks; body hair every 6-8 weeks). Hair grows in cycles, and laser only affects actively growing follicles, requiring multiple sessions.
What areas can you treat?
We can treat virtually any area except directly around the eyes. Common areas include face (upper lip, chin, sideburns), underarms, arms, legs, chest, back, abdomen, and bikini/Brazilian. We customize treatment to your specific needs.
When will I see results?
Treated hair begins shedding 1-3 weeks post-treatment. Maximum results appear after completing your full treatment series (typically 4-6 sessions). Each session progressively reduces hair density and thickness.
Does laser hair removal work on men?
Absolutely. Laser hair removal is increasingly popular for men seeking permanent reduction on back, chest, shoulders, abdomen, and facial areas (neck, beard shaping). Treatment protocol is identical; coarser male hair often responds excellently.
How much does laser hair removal cost?
Cost varies by treatment area size and number of sessions needed. We offer package pricing for optimal value. During your consultation, we provide detailed pricing customized to your specific treatment plan.
