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've had such a lovely experience with the team at MD Cote - I've seen Lyndsey and Rachel, and they're both warm, considerate, knowledgable and professional. They've both taken time to answer all my questions, and have been really gentle in their approach. They've really gone above and beyond on all things, including making my life easier with scheduling. Highly recommend!
I had my first appointment at Md Cote yesterday with Rachel after being referred to her by a couple of people, and my experience was amazing from the moment I walked in. First off, the waiting room is so cute I loved the decor! Michelle at the front desk was awesome and very helpful during both check-in and check-out. Rachel was also amazing. She took the time to sit down with me, listen, and make sure we were on the same page before starting. I was super nervous, but she made me feel so comfortable and at ease throughout the appointment. I’m already looking forward to coming back!
Very professional. Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable about treatments.
Rachel is the best! She is knowledgeable and mindful of pain management and answering all of my questions. The results were fantastic as I look like me just the best version of me.
I’ve been seeing Mya for a year now for laser hair removal and I seriously love her. She’s so skilled and I always feel safe when she is doing my laser treatments.
I am thrilled with my HALO treatment with Lyndsey! one month later, the fine lines around my mouth are significantly reduced, and my skin feels plumper. The 'Halo glow' is real Thank you so much Lyndsey!!!
I first heard about Md Cote at a luncheon where several women talked about HRT using pellets. I had heard of pellets, yet I was nervous to try them. The office was very welcoming and super cute, which is always a plus for me. I have been on HRT for just over a year and the benefits are many. One thing I would say is it took a while to find my correct dosage so if you have tried them once and didn't see the benefit, commit to a year and hopefully you will feel as thankful as I do.
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 think business is struggling and they r finding ways to make money. 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 completely disagree with your response. It misrepresents the facts and avoids the real issue—you accepted payment and failed to deliver the services. Not stated ever about the expiration. These treatments are not cheap if clients are aware off expirations who would have this kind of money to donate it to spa like yours. I made repeated efforts to resolve this privately, which were not taken seriously. Your reply only reinforces my concern about the lack of professionalism and accountability.
I couldn't be happier with my results. Rachel does an amazing job and my results look very natural. She listens to my concerns and gives me feedback on how they can be addressed. I am so so happy with my experience at Md Cote!
Dr Cote and assistant are great. They take time to do what you want. Lyndsey is great too! Be mindful of the small print when you sign that you understand. The person that handles that portion isn't rude, but I wouldn't make seeing her a habit.
I had an amazing experience with Mya for laser hair removal. She took the time to explain everything to me to make me feel completely comfortable. The process was painless and took six sessions with much success. The space was clean and professional and her services exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend Mya if you’re looking for high-quality laser hair removal delivering great results.
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.
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.
