Experience Smooth, Confident Skin—Expert Laser Hair Removal in the Portland Metro area

At Dermatology Associates, we are dedicated to helping you achieve your skin goals with the latest advancements in cosmetic dermatology. Our Board-Certified Dermatologists and skilled Dermatology providers proudly offer laser hair removal using the state-of-the-art Spectrum Laser, delivering safe, effective, and long-lasting results for patients.

Why Choose Laser Hair Removal?

Unwanted body hair is a common concern for both men and women. Traditional methods like shaving, waxing, and plucking can be time-consuming and uncomfortable, and only offer temporary results. Laser hair removal with the Spectrum Laser provides a modern solution, targeting hair at the root for lasting smoothness and freedom from daily maintenance.

The Spectrum Laser Advantage

Advanced Technology for All Skin Types

The Spectrum Laser is a multi-platform system that uses an 810nm diode laser—the gold standard for hair removal. Its large spot size and adjustable pulse repetition rate (up to 10 pulses per second) allow for fast, efficient treatment of both small and large areas, making sessions shorter and more comfortable.

Key Benefits:

  • Safe for nearly all skin tones and hair types
  • Built-in cooling system for enhanced comfort and skin protection
  • Minimal downtime—return to your daily routine right after your session
  • Precision targeting of hair follicles for permanent reduction

How It Works

The Spectrum Laser emits a specific wavelength of light that is absorbed by the pigment in your hair follicles. This energy heats and damages the follicle, preventing future hair growth while leaving the surrounding skin unharmed. The integrated cooling tip ensures your comfort throughout the procedure.

What to Expect

Treatment Areas

We can safely and effectively treat virtually any area of the body, including:

  • Face (upper lip, chin, sideburns, beard)
  • Underarms
  • Bikini and Brazilian
  • Legs (full or partial)
  • Back, chest, and abdomen

Treatment Timeline

For optimal results, most patients require a series of 6–8 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart, depending on the area and your individual hair growth cycle. Maintenance sessions may be recommended for long-term smoothness.

Comfort and Safety

Your comfort is our priority. The Spectrum Laser’s advanced cooling system minimizes discomfort and protects your skin, making the procedure well-tolerated—even for sensitive areas.
