Many people in our region would like to have laser hair removal done but are not sure of where to start. Many worry about the pain, some worry about the time involved and others the cost. As the clinic that does the most laser hair removal procedures (actually all laser procedures) in our region, we have invested the most into laser options for our clients. Our latest addition is the Lumenis Duet. We have had the laser for a little over a year and our patients are very happy with it.
The Lumenis 800nm laser has been available for many years and has a record of excellent results but the Duet offers a larger handpiece called the HS which stands for high speed. The biggest advantage to the HS handpiece is the speed in which you can do large areas. In the past with others lasers it may have taken 60 to 90 minutes to complete a mans back. Today with the Lumenis Duet we can complete a mans back in 20 to 30 minutes of treatment time. It also shortens up the time to complet laser hair removal on a womens legs.
The second improvement with the Duet is the use of suction to pull your skin up closer to the laser. This allows the laser to be used at lower energy because the hair bulb is pulled closer and the skin is stretched out. So what does this mean to you? It means that with lower energy settings there is less discomfort. At this time, the Lumenis Duet seems to be the least uncomfortable way to achieve permanent hair reduction.
Third concern for many is the cost of laser hair removal. At LazaDerm, we have invested the most into lasers for laser hair removal but yet we have continually kept our prices lower so that more can afford it. We try to keep it affordable for most. This is not something that only the rich can afford. If your are not sure give us a call or schedule a free consultation for your hair removal needs.
At LazaDerm of Sioux Falls, SD and Sioux City, IA, I am always trying to work with the most advanced laser systems on the market. You will find with us that we use the "Gold Standard" laser for each application. Many clinics say they have the "state of the art" equipment but that is false. They have bought a single laser system that has multiple heads for various treatment purposes. This multi-platform type of laser system is always inferior to a laser that is built with a specific purpose. That is why we at LazaDerm have invested in so many different laser technologies because we use the "Gold Standard" for our lasers and we are the "Gold Standard" for cosmetic medicine in the region.

As many of you have seen, the Ideal Protein Diet is being marketed in many facilities in Sioux Falls and now is starting to show up in Sioux City as well. So why would you chose LazaDerm for you Ideal Protein diet? The first and foremost reason is that LazaDerm has a full time physician on staff. Many facilities are being established with non-medical personal. The advantage to using a medical clinic is the expertise behind it. Not only can they monitor your vital signs but they can also order labs if necessary and follow your medications.
Another advantage is that I can work with your physician to monitor labs as well as possibly taking you off of medications as you proceed through the weight loss and to your goals. Many patients with high blood pressure, high cholesterol and even type II diabetes will be able to lower their medication doses and possibly even be removed from some or all of their weight related medications. This can be accomplished at your weekly meetings with my staff.
I hope this explains why you should choose LazaDerm. Ideal Protein is available in both our Sioux Falls, SD and Sioux City, IA/Dakota Dunes clinics.
