Shaving, waxing, and plucking can be time consuming and annoying. Many men and women want a long-term solution for smooth, hairless skin. At Chicago Aesthetics Surgery & Med Spa in River North, we offer DiolazeXL, one of the most advanced laser hair removal technologies available today. It is faster, more comfortable, and safe for a wider range of skin types and hair colors than older laser hair removal devices.

What is DiolazeXL Laser Hair Removal?

DiolazeXL is an advanced hair removal system that combines two laser wavelengths with a superior cooling feature. This allows it to target the root of the hair follicle while protecting the skin’s surface. We offer effective hair reduction with improved safety and comfort compared to older technologies.

How Does DiolazeXL Work?

DiolazeXL uses two wavelengths: 755nm Alexandrite and 810nm Diode. These wavelengths are absorbed by melanin in the hair follicle, which disables the follicle and prevents future growth.

The 755nm wavelength works best on lighter skin tones and finer hair
The 810nm wavelength penetrates deeper and is highly effective for darker skin tones and coarse hair

By combining both wavelengths in one device, DiolazeXL treats a wider range of skin-types than many traditional single-wavelength lasers.

Is Laser Hair Removal Painful?

Older laser hair removal devices were often described as uncomfortable. Our DiolazeXL laser hair removal technology includes an advanced triple cooling system that protects the skin throughout treatment.

Pre cooling prepares the skin before each pulse
Parallel cooling protects the surface of the skin during treatment
Post cooling soothes the skin immediately after each pulse

This makes the procedure virtually painless for most patients.

How Long Do Treatments Take?

One of the biggest advantages of DiolazeXL is speed. The device has a large treatment area which allows our providers to cover skin more efficiently. Large areas such as the legs or back can be treated in just minutes. For example, one leg can be completed in about 10 minutes or less.

You will also likely need fewer sessions than with older technologies, saving both time and cost over the full course of treatment.

Is DiolazeXL Laser Hair Removal Safe for All Skin Types?

The combination of dual wavelengths and advanced cooling makes DiolazeXL safe for more skin tones than many older laser hair removal devices. This includes patients with darker skin, who are sometimes at higher risk of burns or pigmentation changes with other systems.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been seeing Carol for Botox for over two years, and she is absolutely amazing! I trust her completely with my face. She always takes the time to listen to what I want and makes sure my results look natural and beautiful—she never overdoes it. I especially appreciate how honest she is; she will tell you when you don’t need something rather than trying to sell you more treatments. Carol truly cares about her patients and always makes me feel comfortable, welcomed, and at home. She is professional, knowledgeable, gentle, and incredibly attentive. I always leave feeling confident and happy with my results. It’s hard to find someone you can trust this much, and I’m so grateful I found Carol. I wouldn’t trust

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had Lipo 360 and a Skinny BBL this summer, and I am so happy with my results. I was always extremely nervous about going under the knife, but I really wanted to do something that would help boost my self-confidence. Dr. T and his entire team were truly amazing throughout the whole process. I am naturally pretty skinny, so I was always worried about whether this procedure would work well for my body type, but I honestly wish I had done it sooner. I am currently about five weeks post-op, and I am already so pleased with how everything is turning out. My results continue to improve as I heal, and I’m excited to see the final outcome. I’m very grateful to Dr. T and his team for making me feel comfortable and confident throughout the experience.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nurse Carol always does an outstanding job no matter the procedure. She literally has light hands and you barely feel a thing. She brightens my day whenever I have an appointment with her. Very kind, professional and very knowledgeable. I have never had anyone as thorough as her. She communicates with me before and after all appointments and reaches out to ensure I safely drive there sooner due to the weather conditions. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I cannot say enough wonderful things about Nurse Carol Donohue. After four years as her client, I can genuinely say that the trust, care, and relationship we have built over the years means so much to me. Carol has always been incredibly easy to communicate with and accommodating with my schedule. She consistently goes above and beyond for her clients—even coming in early before her shift to make sure she can see me when needed. That level of dedication and care does not go unnoticed. What I appreciate most about Carol is her integrity. She doesn’t simply recommend a cosmetic procedure because she can perform it. She takes the time to honestly tell me what would be beneficial, what may be unnecessary, and what she believes is best for me. My health, well-being, and safety have always come first, and that has given me an incredible amount of confidence and trust in her. Carol is knowledgeable, professional, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. She explains everything in detail, makes sure I understand every step of the process, and always makes me feel comfortable and cared for. She values her clients as people, not just appointments. Beyond her professionalism, Carol’s kindness has touched me personally. There have been days when I walked into her office feeling at my lowest, and simply being met with her warmth, compassion, and kindness helped me leave feeling a little more confident and a lot better than when I arrived. That is something I will never forget. Thank you, Nurse Carol Donohue, for four wonderful years of professionalism, honesty, compassion, and exceptional care. I am incredibly grateful for the client-and-nurse relationship we have built, and I look forward to many more years to come. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a provider who combines expertise with integrity and truly cares about the people she serves.
