Sōna Believes We Provide Unsurpassed Value Due to Our Unique Approach, the Sōna Concept

The Sōna Concept was developed to increase the efficacy of laser hair removal.

This set of treatment protocols is unique to Sōna and produces effective results. Other centers will promise you great results, but Sōna actually delivers them! More about the Sōna Concept

Your laser hair removal experience starts with the SōnaSmart Analysis System*. After identifying your skin type through the universally accepted Fitzpatrick Scale, we use the ChromoTester device to give us the most precise measurements of the color of your skin. This provides the data we need to customize your program with the optimal duration and intensity of laser treatments.

Fitzpatrick Scale
1. Very fair, “transparent”; always burns, never tans
2. Fair; always burns, tans minimally
3. Fair to light olive; sometimes burns, tans gradually
4. Olive to brown; rarely burns, tans easily
5. Dark brown; very rarely burns, tans very easily
6. Black; never burns, always tans

Your Sōna consultant will then devise a proven treatment schedule that meets your hair reduction goals.

Laser Hair Removal Treatment

Laser hair removal is a simple process. A medical professional prepares the target area by coating it with a gel, then runs a specialized laser handset over the area. The laser light passes harmlessly through your skin and is absorbed by the melanin in your hair follicles. Two to three weeks later, most clients experience hair fall out. Regrowth is permanently disabled in follicles treated that were in the active growth phase during treatment. Follow-up visits are timed to target upcoming active growth cycles to assist in disabling remaining follicles.

Although it is a simple process, there are several complex reasons why your Sōna MedSpa does it so well. One is the Sōna Concept, a series of treatment protocols that is exclusive to Sōna. These detailed protocols allow us to apply the right technology and the right techniques to assist you in becoming Sōna Smooth.

Another element that sets Sōna apart is our laser technology. All of our lasers are FDA-approved, and all are individually adjustable. This is important because it means that we do not simply provide the same treatment to each client; we adjust the laser’s intensity and duration to your skin and hair color. Each laser is specialized for certain applications. For example, Alexandrite laser wavelengths are highly effective on lighter skin types, while YAG lasers are well suited to darker skin types.

By utilizing a number of the industry’s most advanced lasers, we are able to safely treat skin types that would not have qualified for laser hair removal even a few years ago.

In addition to leading-edge technology, every Sōna MedSpa has a highly trained medical staff. All laser hair removal treatments are performed by licensed medical professionals who have completed intensive training at our Sōna UniversityTM. This training includes both internships and continuing medical training. What’s more, each Sōna MedSpa is supervised by a Medical Director, a licensed physician who is in turn overseen by our National Medical Director.
