How 1064 YAG reduces hair
The 1064 YAG wavelength concentrates light energy into hair follicles beneath the skin without describing invasive procedures. In practice the device used at Lotus Skin Care Center, the Cutera Xeo, delivers controlled pulses of energy to the follicle area, which over repeated sessions reduces active hair growth. Settings are adjusted by the clinician for safety and effectiveness on neck skin.
Treatment is offered as single sessions that the clinic schedules to allow careful setup and monitoring. Each appointment is scheduled for 95 minutes. The clinic recommends 8 sessions for 75 to 80% hair reduction, and the listed price is $150 per session — outcomes vary by individual and are not guaranteed.
What to expect during visits
A typical visit includes a brief assessment of the treated neck area, selection of appropriate Cutera Xeo parameters, and the treatment itself. Clients often feel short pulses and minimal interruption. Clinicians observe the treated zone throughout the appointment to adjust energy and ensure comfort, and sessions are structured to suit safe, consistent progress across multiple visits.
Scheduling is influenced by local routines: evenings and weekends are in high demand because many Massapequa clients coordinate appointments with family and commuting schedules. Allow the full 95 minutes when booking so staff can complete set-up, treatment, and short post-treatment checks without rushing.
Local timing and aftercare
Massapequa’s coastal lifestyle and outdoor options—like Wantagh Park and Massapequa Preserve—mean many clients plan treatments around outdoor activities. It’s practical to schedule sessions when you can limit direct sun exposure on the treated area for a few days and avoid beach or high-sun outdoor plans immediately after treatment.
Because the clinic is steps from the Massapequa LIRR, clients coming from commutes often book appointments before or after work. This proximity helps fit the recommended series into busy family schedules, but evenings and weekends still fill quickly, so plan sessions in advance to keep recommended timing between treatments consistent.
