LASER
Enhance Your Appearance
At Spa One, a distinguished member of the Plastic Surgery Group, we’re committed to providing our patients with the highest standards of care and innovation in cosmetic laser treatments in Albany. With a steadfast focus on enhancing your beauty and self-assurance, our practice features cutting-edge solutions catering to your unique needs.
Our Med Spa Laser Services
In this spirit, we offer two remarkable laser procedures: laser hair removal and AviClear® laser acne removal. These treatments exemplify the fusion of advanced technology and a patient-centric approach, ensuring a transformative experience that leaves you feeling more beautiful and confident.
AviClear® Laser
AviClear® is the first FDA-cleared energy device for treating acne of all severities across different skin types. It uses innovative wavelength technology to target and suppress sebaceous glands, reducing oil production at the source without requiring prescription medications. The treatment involves three comfortable sessions with no downtime, delivering lasting acne improvement.
Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that harnesses the power of advanced laser technology to target and eliminate unwanted hair from various body areas. This innovative approach offers a convenient and efficient solution, providing lasting results and freeing individuals from the hassles of traditional hair removal methods like shaving and waxing.
Your Laser Consultation
At Spa One, our licensed estheticians will conduct a comprehensive consultation to determine if you’re an ideal candidate for one or both of our laser procedures. The best candidates are those who actively seek to address specific cosmetic concerns with realistic expectations about the treatment’s limitations and potential results.
We look for individuals in good overall health who can commit to following post-treatment care instructions, including sun avoidance and prescribed skincare routines. During your consultation, our qualified professionals will assess your individual needs, skin attributes, and aesthetic goals to create a personalized treatment plan that maximizes your results and ensures your safety.

How Much Do Laser Therapies Cost?
The cost of laser procedures varies by treatment type and practitioner experience. The total price also depends on the number of sessions needed, which varies from person to person.
Laser FAQs
How should I prepare for laser therapy?
During your consultation, you'll receive specific preparation instructions for your laser treatment, such as stopping tobacco use, avoiding sun exposure and tanning beds, and using SPF 30+ sunscreen when you go outside. Avoid waxing and plucking for two weeks before laser hair removal. However, you should shave the treatment area on the morning of your appointment.
Are laser treatments safe?
Any medical procedure has some inherent risks, but these are significantly reduced when conducted by experienced experts in a safe environment. Our laser treatments are performed by highly trained and licensed estheticians in our professional, sterile, and state-of-the-art medical spa.
Are these procedures painful?
Both of these laser treatments are non-surgical in nature; most patients experience little to no discomfort during their appointments. (If anything, they may feel a dull “snapping” sensation.) During your consultation, you and your provider will discuss the comfort features already available with your chosen laser device (like the AviCool™ built-in cooling system) and whether a topical numbing cream would also be helpful.
Will my hair grow back thicker or darker after laser hair removal?
This is actually a common myth; laser hair removal works by damaging hair follicles, so any hair that does regrow will typically be finer and lighter than before. Unlike shaving or waxing, laser treatments progressively weaken the hair rather than stimulating growth.
How long do the results of laser treatments last?
The effects of an AviClear® treatment are meant to be long-lasting, although some patients may need a follow-up treatment after a few years to keep their results consistent. Laser hair removal is permanent since the controlled damage to the hair follicles is designed to stop their ability to grow additional hair in the future.
