Aerolase Neo Elite uses a 650-microsecond pulse duration that bypasses epidermal melanin and treats the target concern directly, making it clinically safe and effective across all Fitzpatrick skin types. At Sqin Toronto, clients with deeper skin tones are treated with the precision and care their skin specifically requires.
