Unwanted hair
Shaving lasts a day, waxing pulls hair out only for it to come back, and both are a permanent chore rather than a solution. Laser is different in kind: it targets the follicle itself, so treated hair stops returning.
The part that matters in Miami is skin tone. Older laser platforms were built for light skin and dark hair, and used on darker skin they risk burns and pigment change. The Soprano platform heats gradually rather than in one aggressive pulse, which is what makes it safe across the full Fitzpatrick range — and that range is most of this city.
What does not work: home IPL devices on dark skin, and any clinic that quotes you settings before looking at your skin.
