Most spas dabble in several aesthetic arts. But at Laser Hair Associates of Rockland, the staff specializes in a single service: laser hair removal. The three owners—each of whom holds laser technician certification—apply their expertise to all treatments at the center, targeting hair follicles with Candela’s FDA-approved GentleMAX laser. Just seconds before the laser permeates the follicle, the handpiece emits a spray of cooling cryogen, helping to prevent discomfort or prematurely melted ice cream. A few days before treatment begins, the technicians will also consult with clients and treat a test patch of skin to make sure it reacts well to the laser.
