Where LongPulse works.

Unwanted hair

Our laser hair removal uses LongPulse when hair color, skin type and the area are a fit.

Visible vessels

Selected visible vessels may be treated after an assessment.

Vessel-related redness

May help when redness comes from visible vessels rather than diffuse pigment or inflammation.

Not for brown spots or texture

Pigment, sun damage and diffuse redness may be better suited to IPL treatment; texture and pores, to ProDeep.

Who performs the treatment

Your care team. Physician-supervised.

Under the oversight of Medical Director Reuben W. Holland III, MD, FACEP.

What a LongPulse visit is like.

  1. Consult

    We review your goals, skin type, recent sun exposure and health history.

  2. Assess

    We confirm the main target and whether LongPulse, IPL, ProDeep or another treatment fits best.

  3. Treat

    When appropriate, laser pulses are delivered to the area at settings selected for you.

  4. Repeat

    Hair and vessel goals often need several sessions. Hair may shed over time; vessels may fade gradually.

Sun plans coming up? Recent sun exposure can affect timing, so ask first.

What LongPulse is

Longer 1064 nm Nd:YAG pulses aimed at hair follicles or selected vessels.

Settings depend on the target, your skin type and the treatment area, after an assessment. Non-ablative means it does not remove the skin's surface. It is a different tool from IPL, ProDeep, DualMode and microneedling (SkinPen).

LongPulse candidacy and risks

Skin type, hair color and recent sun decide the plan.

Good candidates

Guests with unwanted hair or selected visible vessels, when skin type, hair color and the target are a fit.

Tell us first

Medications, recent procedures, recent tanning or sun exposure, and your health history.

Sometimes no is safer

Not every skin type, hair color, vessel concern or medical history suits LongPulse. A recent tan or burn is a reason to wait.

Common effects

Redness, warmth or mild swelling may occur the same day and usually resolves relatively quickly. Treated vessels may darken.

What it cannot do

One session is not a finished result. Some hair may return over time, and maintenance may be recommended.

Pregnancy

Laser and light treatments are postponed during pregnancy. If you are pregnant, trying to become pregnant or breastfeeding, tell us before booking.

Aftercare

Protect the area from the sun before and after treatment.

SPF and sun avoidance help reduce irritation and pigment risk. Avoid tanning, burns and unnecessary sun exposure.

LongPulse FAQ

LongPulse laser questions, answered.

How much does LongPulse cost?

LongPulse prices are not listed online. Your plan depends on the target, the treatment area and the number of sessions. Ask us by text or call, or at a complimentary consultation. New guests get $50 off when their eligible treatments total $150 or more, one per guest.

Is LongPulse the same as laser hair removal?

LongPulse is not the same as laser hair removal: LongPulse is the laser, and laser hair removal is a service that may use it when hair color, skin type and the area are a fit.

What does LongPulse treat?

LongPulse is used for unwanted hair and selected visible vessels. Whether it fits depends on skin type, hair color, the treatment area and an assessment.

How many LongPulse sessions will I need?

LongPulse hair reduction and vessel goals often need a series. The number depends on the area, the concern, the hair cycle, your skin type and our team's recommendation.

Is there downtime after LongPulse?

Downtime after LongPulse is typically light, with possible temporary warmth, redness or mild swelling depending on the target and settings. Protect the area from the sun before and after treatment.

Can LongPulse help with redness?

LongPulse may help vessel-related redness or visible vessels in appropriate candidates. Diffuse redness or pigment may be better suited to IPL or another treatment.

Is LongPulse the same as IPL?

LongPulse is not the same as IPL. IPL is a broad-spectrum light treatment often used for pigment, redness and photofacial goals; LongPulse is a laser often considered for hair reduction and selected vessels.

Is LongPulse a Vydence Medical device?

LongPulse is a Vydence Medical laser. Eternal MedSpa uses Vydence technology for skin and laser treatments.

Can I have LongPulse while pregnant?

Laser and light treatments are postponed during pregnancy. If you are pregnant, trying to become pregnant or breastfeeding, tell us before booking.
