Razors. Waxing appointments. Ingrown hairs. The cycle is tedious, uncomfortable, and honestly, endless. Laser hair removal changes that math entirely. And with Cutera's Xeo system at La Vida Sana, it works on every skin type, with no downtime.


What makes Xeo different

Not all laser systems are built equally. Xeo by Cutera is a customizable laser and light-based platform, which means the treatment can be tuned to your specific skin tone, hair texture, and target area. That flexibility is what allows us to safely treat patients across the full spectrum of skin types — something older laser systems simply could not do.


Xeo is safe for all skin types, including darker skin tones. If you have been told before that laser would not work for you, it may be worth a second conversation.


What can Xeo treat?

The Xeo system handles much more than hair removal. At La Vida Sana, we use it for a range of skin concerns, all in the same personalized treatment framework.


  • Laser hair removal

  • Spider veins

  • Fine line wrinkles

  • Diffuse redness

  • Acne scars

  • Skin texture

   

What to expect from your sessions

Most treatments take between 15 and 60 minutes depending on the area. Many patients schedule during a lunch break and return to their day immediately. Xeo requires no downtime — you may notice mild redness in the treated area for a few hours, which is normal and resolves quickly.


Every treatment at La Vida Sana is overseen by Dr. Shamarie Sais, MD. You are not in a franchise chain or a salon. You are in a medical setting with personalized oversight.


Common questions


Does it hurt?

Most patients describe it as a brief snapping sensation. Discomfort is minimal and brief, and we take every step to make sure you are comfortable throughout your session.


How many sessions will I need?

Hair grows in cycles, so a series of sessions spaced 4 to 8 weeks apart is typically recommended. Your treatment plan will be built around your specific goals and hair type.


Is there downtime?

No. Xeo requires no downtime. You may notice mild redness in the treated area for a few hours, which is normal and resolves quickly.


Can I use Cherry to pay?

Yes. La Vida Sana works with Cherry for flexible payment plans. Ask about options when you schedule your consultation.
