Smooth skin in the South Bay, treated in Torrance & Redondo Beach.

Laser hair removal targets the pigment inside each hair root. The hair heats up and stops growing in that spot. Meanwhile, cooling guards your skin. Results build across a set series; upkeep is occasional afterward.
At Skin Works Medical Spa, licensed providers follow clear medical steps. We serve Torrance, Redondo Beach, Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, Palos Verdes, Gardena, Carson, Lomita, and San Pedro.
Light finds the dark hair root, the root heats and growth slows or stops. Cooling protects your skin so comfort is higher and downtime is low.
Most areas need six visits, 4–6 weeks apart. Hormones can affect growth, so some spots may need extra sessions. Maintenance is occasional after your series.
Many methods remove hair. Only laser reduction treats lots of follicles at once and slows regrowth. As your series moves forward, you spend less time shaving and more time smooth.
Same pricing for everyone. Choose single sessions or save with 6-packs. Typical plan: 6–8 sessions every 4–6 weeks.

All laser hair removal treatments are supervised by our Board-certified Nurse Practitioner with advanced training on Lutronic Clarity II (755 nm Alexandrite, 1064 nm Nd:YAG) and Nd:YAG systems. 20+ years in aesthetics; 8,000+ laser hair removal sessions performed.

Most skin types can be treated with the right device and settings. Grey/white/very light blond hairs have little pigment and may need other options.
Expect long-term reduction. Hormones and new follicles can affect regrowth; occasional maintenance helps keep areas smooth.
Temporary redness or mild swelling around follicles is common. With proper screening and settings, burns or pigment changes are rare.
If you have an active infection, take photosensitizing meds, recently waxed/epilated, or are pregnant without clearance, please wait. We confirm details during your consult.
Yes. Many people pair treatments with clinical facials or peels on a staggered plan. Avoid strong actives on the same day.

Omg why didn’t I do this earlier?? I used to shave my legs every other day. Now after like 6 sessions the hair barely grows and it’s so thin you can’t see it. No more razor burn, no more itchy stubble. Summer is way easier now!
I did laser for my armpits. It was quick. Little zap feeling but not bad. After some sessions, no more shadow or bumps. I feel clean and fresh all the time.
I invested in full-body laser hair removal after years of waxing and shaving. It’s been life-changing. My skin is smoother everywhere, and I save so much time getting ready. I also don’t worry about ingrowns or irritation anymore. Worth every penny.
Waxing was killing me every month. I switched to laser bikini line and I’ll never go back. No bumps, no pain after, just smooth. Took a couple of visits to really see it but now it’s basically gone. So happy I did it.
I hated the hair on my back, always felt self conscious at the beach. Tried laser and after a few times it’s like 70% gone. Way less thick too. Don’t feel weird taking my shirt off now. Best money I spent on myself.
I’m 62 and started growing dark hair on my lip and chin after menopause. Very embarrassing. The girls at Skin Works treated me so kind, and the laser removed almost all of it. Now I feel confident again. Thank you.
Did chest laser cause I got tired of shaving. Hurts a little but not bad, feels like snaps. Took about 5 times but now it’s so much less hair. My shirts feel better, less sweaty too. I recommend it to guys.
I have very thick arm hair from teenager time. Always cover with long sleeves. I do laser, now hair very little, soft. Skin look smooth, I feel good wear short sleeve dress. I feel more free.
