It's Laser Season
Lasers and light-based devices aren't interchangeable, and they aren't ranked from better to worse. Each is built to solve a different problem, at a different depth, with a different recovery. A practice with one or two lasers will recommend one of them, not necessarily because it's the best fit, but because it's what's available.
This page is organized the way a consultation actually works: by concern first, not by device name. Find what's bothering you below, see which treatments are built to address it, and book at the location nearest you when you're ready.
New Patient Welcome
Every laser plan starts with a consultation, not a menu. Share a few details and a concierge will help match the right treatment to what your skin actually needs.
Your first visit includes one of the following
One offer per new client, redeemable at your first visit. Offers may not be combined.
Find Your Concern
No single laser addresses every concern equally well. Start with what's actually bothering you, not the device name you've heard most.
If sun spots, redness, or uneven tone are the concern, BBL and PICO are the two treatments used most often. BBL tends to be the gentler, lower-downtime option and a common starting point. PICO works well for more stubborn pigment and doubles as the technology used for tattoo removal. Visible spider or reticular veins fall into a related but separate category, treated with a dedicated vein laser rather than any of the treatments below.
Individual results vary.

For fine lines, texture, and overall clarity, MOXI and Halo are the two most likely to come up. MOXI is gentler, often used as a starting point or for ongoing maintenance between more intensive treatments. Halo combines two wavelengths to resurface at both a surface and deeper level, addressing more visible texture and tone concerns in a single session.
Individual results vary.
When the concern goes deeper still, more pronounced texture, deeper wrinkles, more significant sun damage, Contour TRL and CO2 resurfacing are the treatments built for it. These carry more downtime than the options above, and that trade-off is deliberate: real improvement at this depth requires it.
Individual results vary.
Not every concern lives in tone or texture. When skin has lost firmness, the goal is structure, not surface correction. Options here range from broader tightening across the face and body to more precise, delicate work along the jawline, eyes, or under the chin. This is one of the more nuanced categories to choose from, which makes it one of the better reasons to talk it through directly rather than pick from a list.
Individual results vary.

For those managing acne, La Chelé's laser and light options address acne-causing bacteria and inflammation directly, along with the texture and tone acne can leave behind.
Individual results vary.
Also relevant NeoClear
A different concern from the skin-tone and texture treatments above, but a laser treatment worth knowing about all the same. A non-invasive option that reduces hair growth over a series of sessions, spaced apart to catch hair across its full growth cycle.
Laser technology is also used outside of facial and body skin concerns. LadyLift addresses vaginal laxity, dryness, and tissue health through non-surgical laser therapy, part of La Chelé's broader women's health offerings.
A Word on Candidacy
Certain lasers carry different considerations depending on Fitzpatrick skin type, and an experienced provider factors that in before recommending one option over another. This is one of the more important reasons a proper consultation, rather than a quick look at this page, is the right starting point, not an extra step.
The Person Behind the Protocol
A nationally recognized expert in cosmetic dermatology and laser medicine, with more than twenty years in the field. After graduating with honors from UCLA, she headed east for medical school at Drexel College of Medicine in Philadelphia, where she served as class president, then extended her residency specifically to specialize in cosmetic and laser medicine at a time when few physicians did.
"There were dermatologists and plastic surgeons, but you really didn't have a lot of laser specialists twenty years ago. When I originally opened, there were only one or two of us. I was fortunate. I knew I only wanted to do one hundred percent cosmetic medicine."
Timing, Stated Plainly
Fall and winter tend to be a sensible window to begin more intensive laser work, largely because of lower UV exposure and easier recovery. It isn't the only window. Plenty of patients start in spring for the opposite reason, wanting results in place before summer arrives.
A laser plan is rarely a single visit. Most begin with a series of sessions spaced several weeks apart, with results building and settling over that period.
