About This Treatment

What Is Laser Hair Removal?

Looking for laser hair removal Rahway NJ patients keep coming back to? Here’s what makes us different. Laser hair removal is an FDA-cleared procedure that uses concentrated light energy to heat and permanently disable hair follicles beneath the skin’s surface. Because hair grows in cycles, you’ll need a series of sessions to catch each follicle in its active growth phase. But after a full course of treatment, most patients achieve 90% or greater permanent hair removal. No more razors. No more waxing. Done.

At RevivalMD, we use the Lumenis Splendor X, which is one of the most advanced laser hair removal systems available in New Jersey. Most clinics in the area still use older, single-wavelength lasers or IPL (intense pulsed light) devices. The Splendor X is different. It combines two wavelengths (Alexandrite 755nm and Nd:YAG 1064nm) in a single handpiece, which means we can safely and effectively treat all skin tones, from the lightest to the darkest complexions. We’re one of the few Splendor X providers in New Jersey, and honestly, the results speak for themselves.

We offer full body laser hair removal as well as targeted treatment for individual areas like the face, underarms, bikini line, legs, back, chest, and arms. Whether you’re coming from Clark, Westfield, Scotch Plains, or anywhere in Union County, you’ve got a board-certified team close to home. Every laser hair removal treatment at our Rahway and Fair Lawn locations is performed or directly supervised by our medical team.

Our Technology

Why the Lumenis Splendor X?

RevivalMD is one of the few practices in New Jersey to offer the Lumenis Splendor X — a next-generation laser platform that combines Alexandrite (755nm) and Nd:YAG (1064nm) wavelengths in a single handpiece. This dual-wavelength technology allows us to treat all skin types safely and effectively, from the lightest to the darkest complexions.

Dual-Wavelength Power

Alexandrite and Nd:YAG wavelengths blend or fire independently for precise, skin-type-optimized treatment.

Safe for All Skin Tones

Fitzpatrick skin types I through VI treated confidently — one of the few lasers truly effective on darker skin.

Faster Sessions

Large spot size and high repetition rate mean full legs can be completed in under 20 minutes.

Built-In Comfort

Integrated cooling system keeps the skin surface comfortable during treatment — no numbing cream needed.

The Splendor X is rare in New Jersey — most clinics use older, single-wavelength systems. At RevivalMD, you get the latest technology backed by physician oversight.

The Process

How It Works

01

Consultation

We assess your hair color, skin tone, and treatment area to calibrate the laser and build your session schedule.

02

Preparation

Shave the area 24 hours before. No waxing or plucking — the hair root must be intact for the laser to work.

03

Treatment

The laser handpiece is moved across the skin in passes. Built-in cooling keeps you comfortable throughout.

04

Between Sessions

Treated hairs shed over 1–3 weeks. Wait 4–6 weeks between sessions to catch the next growth cycle.

Recovery & Outcomes

What to Expect

Sessions are faster than most people expect. Smaller areas like the underarms or upper lip? Five to ten minutes. Larger areas like full legs or back? Thirty to forty-five minutes. The Splendor X has a built-in cooling system, so most patients describe the sensation as a quick snap against the skin. Not exactly pleasant, but very tolerable.

You might notice some mild redness or warmth in the treated area afterward, kind of like a light sunburn. That usually fades within a few hours. Hair in the treated zone sheds gradually over the next one to three weeks. And here’s the part people love: with each session, the hair comes back finer and sparser until most of it just stops returning.

Most patients need six to eight sessions spaced about four to six weeks apart. From what we’ve seen, the investment in permanent hair removal pays off fast when you think about what you’d spend on waxing, razors, and shave cream over the next decade.

Is This Right for You?

Ideal Candidates

Honestly, laser hair removal is a good fit for pretty much anyone who’s tired of the shaving and waxing cycle. It works best on hair that contains melanin (pigment), so very light blonde, white, or gray hairs may not respond as well. But with the Splendor X’s dual-wavelength technology, we can safely treat a much wider range of skin tones and hair types than older laser systems.

The ideal patient is someone who can avoid sun exposure and tanning in the treatment area during their series. That’s important because tanned skin changes how the laser interacts with your follicles. If you’re dealing with stubborn ingrown hair, razor bumps, or unwanted body hair you’re just tired of managing, this is probably the most effective permanent hair removal solution. The laser disrupts hair growth at the follicle level, so what you’re getting isn’t just temporary smoothness.

As a laser hair removal Rahway NJ provider with a second location in Fair Lawn, we’ll assess your skin type, hair color, and treatment goals during your consultation and build a session plan that makes sense for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Most patients need six to eight sessions, spaced about four to six weeks apart. Here's why: hair grows in cycles, and the laser only works on follicles in the active growth phase. So you need multiple passes to catch everything. After a full series, most people see 90% or more permanent reduction.
Most patients say it feels like a rubber band snapping against the skin. Not exactly comfortable, but very manageable. The Splendor X has a built-in cooling system that helps a lot. Most people are surprised by how tolerable it actually is.
Yes, and this is a big deal. A lot of older laser systems aren't safe for darker skin because they can cause burns or hyperpigmentation. The Splendor X uses Nd:YAG wavelength technology specifically designed for safe, effective treatment across all Fitzpatrick skin types, from the lightest to the darkest complexions.
Pretty much anywhere unwanted hair grows. We treat face, underarms, bikini line, full legs, back, chest, arms, and more. Full body laser hair removal is popular too. During your consultation we'll map out exactly which areas you want treated.
After completing a full series of treatments, most patients get permanent hair removal in the treated areas. Some people may need a maintenance session once or twice a year, but we're talking about a few minutes, not the weekly shaving routine you're used to.
Shave the treatment area the day before your session. Don't wax or pluck, because the laser needs the hair root intact beneath the skin to work. Also avoid tanning or sun exposure for at least two weeks before treatment.
Pricing depends on the treatment area and the number of sessions. Smaller areas like underarms cost less than larger areas like full legs or back. During your consultation at RevivalMD, we'll give you transparent pricing and can discuss package options. In most cases, the cost of a full laser series is less than what you'd spend on waxing over a few years.
We think so, and here's why. Most lasers use a single wavelength, which limits the skin types and hair colors they can treat effectively. The Splendor X combines two wavelengths (Alexandrite and Nd:YAG) in one handpiece, with a large spot size for faster sessions and built-in cooling for comfort. It's one of the most advanced platforms on the market, and RevivalMD is one of the few providers in New Jersey that has it.
We generally recommend avoiding tanning for at least two weeks before and after treatment. Tanned skin changes how the laser interacts with your hair follicles and can increase the risk of side effects. That said, the Splendor X's Nd:YAG wavelength is safer on tanned skin than most other lasers. We'll assess your situation during your consultation.
