The picture below shows how a diode laser is a little different than Alexandrite. Bottomline, whatever your skin type and color, we have you covered with the best technology available in the market.
HOW DOES A LASER WORK?
The science behind the laser hair removal is quite straight-forward. During laser hair removal, a laser emits a light that is absorbed by the skin pigment melanin in the hair. The light energy is converted to heat, which damages the tube-shaped sacs within the skin called hair follicles that produce hairs. This damage inhibits or delays future hair growth.
The following picture shows different types of lasers and their penetration depths. We will first analyze your skin type and make a determination on how to apply the laser correctly to address your hair removal.

COST FOR THE TREATMENT
Cost for Laser Hair Removal in Portland falls in a wide range. Some providers use antiquated equipment and provide very cheap deals. Yes, those Groupon deals can result in very bad experience. We do get a number of clients who signed up for Groupon deal and then they come to us. Some are there to use a bait and switch deal and offer a few treatments at a very cheap price and then sell the rest at a higher price. We get a lot of clients at Rivière Med Spa for laser hair removal who have been to one of these places and want to get things done the right way. We don’t have any gimmicks, our prices are fair for the service we provide and expert professionals that deliver the service and care.
Our treatment prices are fair and competitive for the quality we provide. We do offer discounts for packages and our membership also comes with benefits that can be applied to laser hair removal treatment.
