Smooth Skin with Laser Hair Removal in Weston, Florida
For those tired of the constant cycle of shaving, waxing, or using at-home creams, laser hair removal offers a modern solution with long-lasting results. This advanced treatment uses medical-grade laser technology to target unwanted hair at the root, helping patients achieve smoother skin with significantly reduced hair growth over time.
At GreeneMD in Weston, laser hair removal is performed in a trusted medical setting under the direction of Dr. Ryan Greene, MD, PhD, FACS. Our experienced Physician Assistant, Holly Shipley, has safely performed laser treatments for more than 10 years. Her experience allows treatments to be customized for each patient’s skin type and hair characteristics while prioritizing safety.
What is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal uses concentrated beams of light to reduce unwanted hair on different areas of the body. The laser targets melanin, the pigment within the hair follicle. The light energy converts to heat, which damages the follicle and slows future hair growth while leaving surrounding skin unharmed.
With a series of treatments, patients typically experience long-term hair reduction and smoother skin.
How Laser Hair Removal Works
Laser hair removal works best when hair is in its active growth phase, called the anagen phase. Because not all hairs are growing at the same time, multiple treatments are needed to effectively target the follicles.
During your visit to GreeneMD in Weston, Holly will evaluate your skin tone, hair color, and treatment area to determine the safest and most effective laser settings. Protective eyewear is worn during treatment, and most patients describe the sensation as a quick snapping feeling similar to a rubber band. Our laser hair removal machine has a cooling tip to further enhance patient comfort during treatments.
Sessions may take only a few minutes for smaller areas or up to 30 minutes for larger areas.

Holly Shipley, PA-C has more than a decade of experience performing laser treatments. Her experience allows her to carefully adjust laser settings based on skin tone, hair type, and treatment area. This level of expertise helps minimize risk and deliver consistent results.

Benefits of Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal offers several advantages compared with traditional hair removal methods:
Long-term hair reduction
Fewer ingrown hairs and less irritation
Smoother skin texture
Precise treatment of specific areas
Minimal downtime
What to Expect After Treatment
After treatment, patients may experience mild redness or swelling similar to a light sunburn. These effects usually resolve within a few hours.
Most patients require a series of treatments, typically four to six sessions spaced several weeks apart. The exact number depends on the treatment area, hair thickness, and individual hair growth cycles.
