At DeeTox, our laser device uses light energy to target and damage hair follicles at the root. The Candela GentleMax Pro Plus uses 2 laser wavelengths to precisely treat a wide range of skin types. The laser energy penetrates hair pigment and gradually slows the follicle’s growth. The result is smooth skin with significantly less regrowth.

Where Confidence Begins
Take the first step toward feeling more like you—refreshed, radiant, and confident in your skin.
Treatment Areas We Cover
Laser hair reduction can do much more than simplify your daily routine. With precise treatment tailored to the area you want to address, DeeTox can reduce unwanted hair and leave your skin feeling smoother and clearer across your face and body, so you feel more confident.
Treatment Areas We Cover
Laser hair reduction can do much more than simplify your daily routine. With precise treatment tailored to the area you want to address, DeeTox can reduce unwanted hair and leave your skin feeling smoother and clearer across your face and body, so you feel more confident.
Face
Facial hair can feel particularly frustrating when frequent shaving or other removal methods leave behind visible regrowth, irritation, or bumps. Laser hair reduction uses carefully controlled energy to target unwanted hair across areas such as the:
- Upper lip
- Chin
- Jawline
- Sideburns
Our providers consider the characteristics of your hair and skin when determining an appropriate treatment approach. We help you establish a smoother appearance that requires less frequent maintenance, helping you spend less time managing facial hair and more time enjoying your skin.
Underarms
Underarm hair requires frequent upkeep, especially when shaving leads to stubble, irritation, or recurring razor bumps. Our laser hair reduction in Burlington offers a more lasting way to address unwanted growth in this commonly treated area.
The Candela GentleMax Pro Plus delivers focused energy to the hair follicle while incorporating cooling technology for a more comfortable experience. Over time, hair can become finer and less noticeable, which makes your underarm routine simpler and helps you feel more confident wearing whatever you choose.
Bikini Line
The bikini line is one of our most popular areas for laser hair reduction, because shaving and waxing become especially tedious (and painful) here.
Treatment can address unwanted hair along the bikini line with precision while helping reduce the bumps and irritation that may accompany traditional hair removal.
We take a thoughtful approach to this sensitive area, adjusting treatment based on your individual skin and hair characteristics. With less regrowth to manage, maintaining smooth skin becomes simpler.
Legs
Keeping your legs smooth can mean spending considerable time shaving, waxing, or managing visible regrowth. Laser hair reduction provides an efficient option for addressing unwanted hair, even across larger areas of the legs.
We can tailor your treatment to the upper legs, lower legs, or both, depending on where you want to focus. As the follicles respond to targeted laser energy between appointments, regrowth becomes less noticeable, helping reduce the amount of routine hair removal your legs require.
Arms
Whether you prefer completely smooth arms or simply want less noticeable hair, our laser hair reduction in Burlington can simplify your approach. We perform treatment on the upper arms, lower arms, or across the full arms, based on your goals.
Our providers use precise laser energy to target active hair follicles while considering your skin characteristics. As regrowth gradually becomes finer, you may find yourself reaching for a razor less often and spending less time thinking about unwanted arm hair.
Back
Many patients find back hair incredibly difficult to manage on their own, making it a practical area for professional laser hair reduction. Treatment can address unwanted hair across the upper back, lower back, shoulders, or the entire area.
Because larger treatment zones require careful attention to consistency and coverage, our team uses a precise approach. Reducing the amount and thickness of regrowth can make ongoing grooming easier and provide a cleaner appearance without constant shaving.
Chest & Abdomen
Unwanted hair across the chest and abdomen varies significantly in density, texture, and distribution. Laser hair reduction can address these areas with targeted energy, while we customize to your individual hair pattern and skin characteristics.
Whether you want to reduce hair across the full chest, abdomen, or both, DeeTox focuses on customized coverage rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Reduced regrowth can make grooming less demanding and help create a smoother, more consistent appearance.
Other Areas
Hair doesn’t always follow predictable boundaries, and neither should your treatment plan. Besides commonly requested areas, our laser hair reduction in Burlington can minimize hair on many other appropriate areas of the body.
During your consultation, we discuss where your unwanted growth occurs and determine whether the area is suitable for safe treatment. DeeTox approaches each treatment zone with our high attention to precision, skin safety, and natural-looking results.
Yes, the GentleMax Pro Plus features dual wavelengths that allow our providers to safely treat skin tones ranging from fair to deep. The technology gives us flexibility in how we adjust the laser to your unique needs, making the process both effective and safe. During your consultation, we will evaluate your skin and hair to create a tailored treatment plan specifically for you.
Most patients describe the sensation as a quick snap or pinch, similar to a rubber band. Our device includes a built-in cooling system that helps protect your skin and minimize discomfort during treatment. Some areas of the body may feel more sensitive than others, but the sessions are typically quick, and treatments are often well-tolerated.
For optimal results, we recommend the following:
- Avoid tanning and sun exposure on the treatment area for at least 2 to 4 weeks.
- Do not wax, tweeze, or use depilatories for at least 4 weeks.
- Avoid products with retinol or acids on the treatment area for at least 5 days.
- Shave the treatment area prior to your appointment
Treatment time depends on the size of the area we’re treating. Small areas, like the upper lip or underarms, may only take 15 to 20 minutes. Larger areas, such as the legs or back, can take up to 45 minutes. Your provider will give you a more accurate estimate during your consultation so you know exactly what to expect.
Many of our patients see their best results after a series of 6 to 8 sessions, spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart. Hair grows in cycles, and laser treatment is most effective during the active growth phase. Consistent treatments can help target as many active follicles as possible, which creates longer-lasting results.
We can treat almost any part of the body. Popular areas include the face, underarms, bikini line, legs, chest, and back. Whether you want to treat a single, small area or combine several for full-body smoothness, we will create a plan that suits your goals.
You can expect to see a noticeable reduction in hair growth with each session. Over time, your hair will become finer, lighter, and sparser. Many patients enjoy results that last for years. Occasional maintenance treatments may help extend your results, especially in areas where hair growth is more stubborn.
Downtime is minimal. Most patients experience mild redness, sensitivity, or a warm sensation in the treated area for up to 24 hours. These effects are temporary and typically resolve on their own. You can return to your routine immediately after, though we recommend avoiding sun exposure, saunas, and intense workouts for at least 24 hours.
You may shave between treatments, but we recommend avoiding waxing, tweezing, or threading. These methods remove the entire hair follicle, which is what the laser targets. Shaving is safe and keeps the skin smooth without interfering with the treatment’s effectiveness.
Laser hair reduction provides long-term results, but may not remove 100% of hair or last forever. Most patients experience a dramatic reduction in hair growth, with smoother skin that can last for years. Occasional touch-up sessions may be helpful depending on the treatment area and your unique hair growth cycle.
Hair color and thickness do influence how effectively laser energy interacts with a follicle.
Darker, coarser hairs generally contain more pigment for the device to target, while lighter, finer hairs may respond differently. Your provider considers these characteristics when determining how to best treat an area.
Hormonal changes influence hair growth patterns, including where hair appears and how quickly it develops.
If your growth pattern has changed noticeably alongside other symptoms of hormone imbalance or fluctuations, share that history with your provider, so we can consider compounded BHRT when planning your laser hair reduction in Burlington.
Certain medications and skincare ingredients affect how your skin responds to light-based treatments. During your consultation, mention all prescriptions, over-the-counter products, supplements, and recent topical treatments.
This information helps your provider identify relevant precautions and make informed decisions about treating selected areas safely and appropriately.
Sun exposure influences how your skin responds to laser energy, making recent tanning or skin changes an important part of your treatment history.
Tell your provider about significant sun exposure or recent self-tanner application before treatment. For our laser hair reduction in Burlington, thoughtful timing and skin assessment help keep treatment decisions centered on safety.
Each individual follicle goes through the phases of growth independently. At any given time, your follicles are growing, detaching, resting, and shedding on completely unique timelines.
Laser energy primarily affects follicles during particular growth phases, so treatment planning accounts for the biology of hair growth, timing subsequent appointments to different stages of follicle activity.
Understanding this cycle helps explain why reduction develops progressively rather than all at once.
It can, when thoughtfully planned. We also offer services such as Botox, PDGF hair restoration, or professional dermatology for other skin concerns.
During your consultation, we coordinate different elements of care, so each treatment fits within your plan, including our laser hair reduction in Burlington.
