Why the Neo Elite

The 1064nm wavelength is the safest choice for darker skin, where melanin-absorbing lasers carry a burn risk. It also relieves razor bumps and ingrown hairs — a common concern the device is well suited to.

You're a good candidate if

You want lasting hair reduction on any skin tone, or you struggle with razor bumps and ingrown hairs.

Aftercare

None. Avoid sun and waxing/plucking between sessions; shaving is fine.

About the Aerolase Neo Elite

650-microsecond pulse

High energy delivered faster than skin conducts heat, so there's no need for cooling or numbing cream and treatments stay comfortable.

1064nm Nd:YAG, contactless

A single wavelength delivered without touching the skin — no cryogen, no sapphire tips, no disposables — that reaches oil glands, pigment, vessels, and hair follicles.

Safe for Fitzpatrick I–VI

Engineered to treat every skin tone safely, including skin of color, with markedly lower risk of dark marks and scarring than many alternative lasers.

The Neo Elite is FDA-cleared across 36+ indications and is used across dermatology and medical aesthetics.

The Neo Elite also helps with concerns like pseudofolliculitis (razor bumps), keratosis pilaris, mild-to-moderate psoriasis, nail fungus, and certain scars — ask your provider whether it's right for your goals.
