Hair Removal in Greenwich, CT

Shaving and waxing can be tedious, especially if you have thick, dark hair. At Greenwich Point Dermatology, Dr. Dolder offers laser hair removal with DiolazeXL®, a novel technology that blends efficacy with patient comfort

About DiolazeXL

DiolazeXL is the latest hair removal device by InMode that combines optimal pulsing and power for maximum efficacy. Unlike other lasers that risk causing hypopigmentation of darker skin, it can be used effectively on all skin types It also offers a robust cooling technology that minimizes discomfort.

DiolazeXL Treatment

A hair removal treatment at Greenwich Point Dermatology begins with a consultation in which Dr. Dolder assesses your skin type and which areas you want treated. This gives her an idea for the optimal treatment specifications to set the laser to as well as an approximation for the number of sessions needed to achieve complete removal.

The DiolazeXL laser can be used in multiple areas of the body, including:

  • underarms
  • bikini area
  • legs and arms
  • face
  • back and chest
  • buttocks

Dr. Dolder runs the laser over the area to be treated, working consistently to target the most hairs possible.

DiolazeXL Results

Because the laser targets hair follicles in a specific stage of growth, full hair removal requires multiple sessions, spaced 6-8 weeks apart. In between sessions, you will notice a decrease in the hair density.

After all treatments have been completed, occasional touch-ups may be required every few years to maintain permanent hair removal.

DiolazeXL Side Effects & Recovery

There is virtually no down-time after a DiolazeXL® treatment. As the skin is slightly more sensitive, it is best to avoid being out in the sun without protection and to avoid salt water for a few days to minimize irritation.
