Laser hair removal involves the use of highly concentrated beams of light directed towards the area of hair that are to be removed from the body.

Lasers remove tattoos by breaking up the pigment colors with a high-intensity light beam. Different tattoo pigments can only be treated by selected lasers.

Laser treatment for scars uses focused light therapy to either remove the outer layer of the skin’s surface or stimulate the production of new skin cells to cover damaged skin cells.

Laser stretch mark removal consists of removing striae (stretch marks) via laser resurfacing. It works by removing the outer layer of skin to help restructure the overlying skin.

Laser and light treatment work by using heat to damage the abnormal blood vessels. This causes the blood vessel to close up and disintegrate after a few weeks, helping to shrink, fade, or possibly remove port-wine stains.

The laser's heat is used to collapse blood vessels so they are no longer visible. It is painless and can greatly reduce redness, thick skin and visible blood vessels. 

Laser vein treatment takes less than an hour and is performed in a doctor's office or clinic and under local anesthesia. The procedure uses a focused beam of light to target the spider vein without damaging nearby tissue.

The goal of laser treatments is to completely remove the lesion, set the stage for further treatments, treat complications or treat the inevitable broken blood vessels (telangiectasias) left behind as a hemangioma involutes.
