HOW LASER HAIR REMOVAL WORKS
Laser hair removal works by delivering controlled pulses of light energy that target the pigment in hair follicles. The heat from the laser safely damages the follicle, preventing future growth while leaving the surrounding skin unharmed. At MD Cote, we use the Cutera Excel HR, which combines Alexandrite and Nd:YAG technology—the gold standard for treating all skin types effectively. Over a series of treatments, hair becomes finer, lighter, and significantly reduced, leaving your skin smooth, soft, and virtually maintenance-free.

I was a loyal client for years, and bought a package laser treatment in 2023 and due to health issues advised by my doctor hold off on any treatments like these which I had provided the dr letter to the spa, they did not inform me about expiration policy the staff and the esthetician even not aware of the policy. Now they are saying I can’t use my package because it had expired.My attempts to resolve the issue were ignored. This is extremely unprofessional and disappointing. I would strongly caution others about paying upfront here. Please avoid this spa at any cost. Multiple unhappy clients and their reviews so stay away. I am now pursuing formal complaint.
I have had the pleasure of spending time with Jenna over this past year as I have received a few coolsculpting treatments. Jenna is just a beautiful person inside and out. She is so gentle, kind and easy to connect with. By the time I am ready to leave, not only have I had the best Coolsculpting session (their equipment and expertise using it is top of the line), I feel like I’ve had a little therapy session as well😊 Thank You Jenna!!
The change in management has been disappointing to say the least. After years of coming here, I can no longer support a business that profits from shady policies and doesn’t honor their long-standing clients. There are far better options for med spas than this place. I highly recommend going elsewhere with higher standards, updated practices and customer loyalty.
I just had my very first facial ever, and I can honestly say it was an incredible experience from start to finish! I wasn’t sure what to expect, but the entire treatment was relaxing, professional, and surprisingly rejuvenating. Mya explained each step and the process. I will definitely be back soon! Thanks Mya!
Mya does an amazing job with the dermaplaning and the diamond glow facial. I leave the office feeling so much more confident with my glowy, smooth skin. I can't wait for my next appointment!
Mia is very personable and is extremely knowledgeable. I always feel comfortable, relaxed, and in good hands.
Staff are always kind and professional. I feel listened to and cared for. Highly Recommend!
I love this place! Their people are amazing, answering questions, making suggestions, making you feel comfortable and relaxed. They offer amazing products that work and their services are tops! They don’t try to sell you on services you don’t need. In fact, I had a consultation for a particular service and the technician explained why it was not necessary and would not give me the results I was looking for. Instead she suggested a product that could help. Wow! A place that doesn’t try to take you money. The other services I really enjoy and see results are the micro needling , peal, laser, and Botox. The micro needling vanished a dark spot on my face after one treatment. Obviously results will vary but for me it only took one but I had a second treatment done anyway 😊Amazing! The laser treatments take time obviously, but I noticed a difference in some areas after the first. Can’t wait to see the final results. The Botox really helps with my headaches and of course fine lines. 😉 They also offer discounts thru Alli and have promotions throughout the year. Another plus!
I am writing to express my disappointment regarding a recent appointment I scheduled via email. Upon arriving at the clinic, I was informed that no appointment was on record and staff were unsure how this occurred. I had made arrangements and taken time off work specifically for this appointment, as I was very much looking forward to being seen. Given the inconvenience and lost time, I would appreciate discussing whether compensation for a portion of my time is possible. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your response.
Lyndsey is a master aesthetician! My skin has completely transformed since coming here. The BBL treatments for sun damage are incredible. I have been to other Aestheticians and did not get the results I am getting with Lyndsey 5 Stars!
Coolsculpting for entire days at a time, seemed more like a spa or vacation day, than a procedure day. Jenna was the best and most professional provider I have ever worked with.

common LASER HAIR REMOVAL faqs
Explore our frequently asked questions to learn more about Laser hair removal, its benefits, and what to expect during treatment.
Laser hair removal uses light energy to target the pigment in hair follicles, safely damaging them so they can’t grow new hair. Over time, this significantly reduces hair growth and leaves skin smoother and softer.
Yes! At MD Cote, we use the Cutera Excel HR, which combines Alexandrite and Nd:YAG technology—considered the gold standard for treating all skin tones safely and effectively.
Alexandrite and Nd:YAG lasers (like in the Excel HR) are true medical-grade lasers that deliver powerful, precise energy for permanent hair reduction. Alexandrite is ideal for lighter skin types, while Nd:YAG safely treats darker skin tones. Diode lasers can also be effective but are generally less versatile, and IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is not a true laser—results are less consistent and often require more sessions.
Most patients see the best results with a series of 6–8 treatments.
Most patients describe the sensation as a quick snap, similar to a rubber band on the skin. The Cutera Excel HR has a built-in cooling system that keeps treatments comfortable.
Laser hair removal can safely treat almost any area of the body, including the legs, underarms, bikini line, face, arms, chest, and back.
No—most patients return to daily activities immediately. You may experience mild redness or sensitivity, but it usually resolves within a few hours.
Hair reduction becomes noticeable after the first few treatments, with smoother skin and significantly reduced regrowth over time. Results build with each session.
Laser hair removal provides long-lasting reduction. Once a follicle is destroyed, it cannot regrow; however, maintenance sessions may be needed for best results.
Anyone tired of shaving, waxing, or dealing with ingrown hairs is a great candidate. With our advanced technology, we can safely treat both light and dark skin tones.
