Laser Hair Removal in Rancho Santa Margarita

Long-lasting, smooth skin — with medically-supervised laser hair reduction.

A Safe, Long-Term Solution to Unwanted Hair

If you're tired of shaving, waxing, or dealing with irritating ingrown hairs, it's time to consider permanent laser hair reduction. At MD Laser and Aesthetics Studio, we use the advanced Fotona Nd:YAG laser system, which delivers safe, effective, and long-lasting results — even for darker skin types and sensitive areas.

All treatments are performed or overseen by Dr. Ali Hamidi, ensuring maximum safety, precision, and effectiveness with a customized approach to every skin tone and hair type.

How Laser Hair Removal Works

Fotona’s long-pulse Nd:YAG laser targets the melanin in the hair follicle, delivering heat that damages the follicle while preserving the surrounding skin. Over a series of treatments, this reduces the follicle’s ability to regrow, leading to long-lasting hair reduction.

Why Fotona? Unlike traditional IPL or outdated laser systems, Nd:YAG technology:

  • Penetrates deeper into the skin
  • Minimizes risk of burns or pigmentation issues
  • Is safe for all skin tones, including tanned or darker skin
  • Offers precision targeting for fine and coarse hair alike

Areas We Treat

We provide laser hair reduction for both men and women on nearly all areas of the face and body, including:

  • Upper lip, chin, and jawline
  • Sideburns and cheeks
  • Underarms
  • Arms and forearms
  • Chest and abdomen
  • Back and shoulders
  • Bikini area and Brazilian
  • Buttocks
  • Legs and thighs
  • Toes, fingers, and hands

If you're prone to ingrown hairs or razor bumps, this treatment can help reduce both irritation and inflammation over time.

Benefits of Laser Hair Reduction

  • Significantly reduces unwanted hair long-term
  • Minimizes shaving and waxing needs
  • Prevents ingrown hairs and irritation
  • Safe for all skin tones and most hair types
  • No downtime — resume daily activities right away
  • Performed under the supervision of a board-certified physician
  • Customized treatment plans based on your skin, hair, and goals

Laser hair removal is especially helpful for those dealing with PCOS-related facial hair, hormonal hair growth, or sensitive skin aggravated by shaving.

What to Expect

  • Most sessions take 15–60 minutes, depending on the area
  • A mild warming or snapping sensation may be felt
  • No downtime — mild redness may occur for a few hours
  • Results develop gradually over 4–6 sessions
  • Treatments are spaced 4–8 weeks apart depending on hair growth cycle
  • Maintenance treatments may be needed annually for some individuals

Dr. Hamidi will assess your skin type, hair density, and medical history to ensure the safest and most effective plan for your needs.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

Laser hair reduction is ideal if you:

  • Want to reduce or eliminate unwanted body or facial hair
  • Are tired of waxing, shaving, or tweezing
  • Experience ingrown hairs or razor bumps
  • Have fair to dark skin — with light to dark hair
  • Prefer treatment in a physician-led, boutique setting with honest care

The Fotona Nd:YAG laser is especially beneficial for darker skin types, which may not be suitable for other laser platforms.
