Powered by the state-of-the-art DiolazeXL® diode laser, our customized treatments are designed by our expert team to be both safe and highly effective for your individual needs.
We are here to help you save time and feel beautifully confident in your skin.
Laser hair removal is a great option for reducing unwanted hair on the face, underarms, legs, bikini area, back, chest, and more. While individual results vary, most clients experience a significant and lasting reduction in hair growth, making it one of the most popular and practical alternatives to traditional hair removal. If you are considering a long-term solution, our team will help you determine whether this treatment is right for you.
Hair grows in cycles, and laser hair removal is most effective during the active growth phase, known as the anagen phase. Because not all follicles are in this phase at the same time, a series of treatments is needed to progressively target hair through all growth phases.
During each session, the DiolazeXL® handpiece is applied to the skin, delivering diode laser energy into the hair follicles beneath the surface. The energy is absorbed by the melanin in the follicle, generating heat that damages the follicle and prevents it from producing new hair.
Each session builds on the last, progressively reducing the number of active follicles in the treatment area. With a recommended package of 8 sessions, most clients see a significant, long-lasting reduction in hair growth.
Laser hair removal with DiolazeXL® offers more than just smoother skin; it is a practical, long-term investment in your comfort and confidence.
Say goodbye to the ongoing cost of razors and waxing appointments. Laser hair removal is a smarter, longer-lasting approach to smooth skin.
During your consultation, we will evaluate your skin type and hair characteristics to customize the DiolazeXL® settings for you. You will be asked to shave the area within 24 hours of your appointment and avoid waxing, threading, and depilatory creams throughout treatment.
Your experience begins with a consultation to evaluate your skin and vascular concerns, confirm Vasculaze™ is right for you, and map out a treatment plan. On the day of your appointment, the area is cleansed and prepared — no numbing cream is typically required.
During your session, the DiolazeXL® handpiece delivers precise pulses of diode laser energy to the hair follicles in the treatment area. The integrated cooling technology maintains comfort on the skin’s surface while the laser works beneath it. Most clients describe the sensation as a mild warmth or a faint snapping feeling, but it is generally well-tolerated. Session length varies depending on the size of the area being treated; smaller areas, such as the upper lip, may take just a few minutes, while larger areas like the legs or back require more time.
Following each session, it is normal to experience mild redness or sensitivity in the treated area. These effects are temporary and usually resolve within a few hours. During your treatment series, it is important to avoid direct sun exposure and tanning products on treated areas, apply a broad-spectrum SPF daily, and continue shaving between appointments.
Most clients begin to notice a visible reduction in hair density after the first few sessions, with the most significant results appearing as the full package is completed. A series of 8 sessions is recommended for optimal hair reduction. Individual outcomes vary based on factors such as hair color, skin tone, and treatment area.
Most clients tolerate DiolazeXL® treatments very well. The device includes a built-in cooling system that helps minimize discomfort throughout the session. Sensations are most often described as a mild warmth or a light snapping feeling against the skin.
Yes, shaving is the recommended method of hair removal between sessions. Waxing, threading, and depilatory creams should be avoided throughout your full treatment plan, as these methods remove the follicle that the laser needs to target.
DiolazeXL® is designed to treat a broad range of skin tones and hair types. During your consultation, our providers will assess your hair and skin to confirm the treatment is both safe and effective for you.
Session length depends on the size of the area being treated. Smaller areas like the upper lip or underarms can be completed in 5 to 10 minutes, while larger areas such as the full legs or back may take 30 to 45 minutes or more.
If you need to reschedule, try to do so as soon as possible to stay close to your recommended treatment interval. Missing the occasional appointment will not undo your progress, but larger gaps between sessions can reduce the overall effectiveness.
Fall and winter are ideal times to begin, since treated skin needs to be protected from sun exposure throughout your series, and lower sun exposure makes that easier to manage. That said, laser hair removal can be performed year-round.
We ask that for any reason you are needing to cancel or reschedule your appointment, you please give us a minimum of 48 hrs notice by calling or texting our office at the numbers below. We must notify our staff of changes and it gives those waiting for a cancellation or opening to take advantage. We understand that life happens and some emergencies may make it difficult or not possible to give sufficient notice, if this is one of those cases please let our staff know so that we can waive any cancellation or missed appointment fees.
Any appointment that is a no-show or a late cancellation without 48 hrs notice will incur a $50 charge. This charge is to cover our staffing costs. If you are being charged with a late cancellation or no-show fee, a separate invoice will be sent to you. If you do not receive a separate invoice, we have waived the fee.
Thank you for your understanding, we appreciate your loyalty.
All sales are final. This includes purchases of products and services as well as any prepaid services. If for medical reasons you are not able to use a prepaid service, it may be transferred to another service of equal or lesser value or transferred to another client.
We always want to provide a safe and relaxing environment for all of our guests. With that being said, we have a gentle ask of our valued clients. We ask that if you are coming in for an appointment that is longer than 15 minutes, we ask you please leave your children at home. It can be very distracting to our service providers providing a medical procedure with needles and/or medical equipment if young children are roaming the room or running through our space. It is not safe and very distracting. It can also be very distracting to our guests that are enjoying relaxing services in a quiet environment. If you are not able to come in without children, you will be responsible for monitoring your children in our space.
If at any point safety is a concern, we will need to reschedule your appointment. Safety is our top priority as well as providing a quality experience for all of our guests. We appreciate your attention to this and for your cooperation. Thank you for allowing us to serve you.
At Skin N’ Tox, we are dedicated to helping our Meridian, Boise, and surrounding communities feel confident in their skin. If you are ready to ditch the razor and experience the benefits of professional laser hair removal, our knowledgeable team is here to design the perfect treatment plan for you.
