At General
Internal Medicine, we offer the newest state-of-the-art
hair removal technology and caring experienced hair removal specialists. Our technicians have over twenty years
of experience in the permanent hair removal field. EpiLight™ is a medical breakthrough for eliminating undesired hair on all
parts of the body and face on both men and women. The results are amazing and long lasting. EpiLight™
works by generating brilliant pulses of light that softly heat and destroy the hair follicle. This non-invasive
hair removal treatment has been approved for use in the United States by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
since 1997. EpiLight is safer and gentler to the skin than the popular lasers used in hair removal, and is better
at destroying more deeply rooted hair follicles.
