Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal rests on a principle first described in 1983: light can target the pigment in the hair follicle while sparing the skin around it.
- So you can spend less time shaving and waxing.
- So you can enjoy smoother skin with fewer ingrown hairs.
- So you can plan your sessions knowing what to expect.
I look at your skin tone and hair color first and build on the routine you already have. Then I set a session plan and review your progress at each follow-up visit.

Questions
How many sessions will I need?
Usually a series spaced weeks apart, because hair grows in cycles. I'll give you a typical plan for your area.
Will it work for my hair?
Laser works best on darker hair. Light blond, gray, white and red hair respond less, and I'll tell you honestly if it's a good fit.
How should I prepare?
Avoid sun, tanning and waxing beforehand. Shave the day before.
Estrogen Study
This study is being done to see whether applying a cream with estradiol (a form of estrogen) to the face can improve overall skin quality and help reduce fine lines and wrinkles in peri- and post-menopausal women, and how this relates to epigenetic changes in the skin. A part of the study will also include applying an extra rapamycin analog cream to the face, which is also believed to improve overall skin quality and help reduce fine lines and wrinkles.
WHY THIS MATTERS
Skin aging in peri- and post-menopausal women is deeply tied to hormonal shifts. This study explores whether topical estradiol can help reset aging skin, cellularly.

I have not had any cosmetic facial treatments in the last 1-3 months.
I have not had any GLP-1 treatments in the last 6 months.
Study Design and Duration
The study includes daily evening application of study cream for 12 weeks, followed by 4 weeks with no test product use. In total, the study will last 16 weeks or approximately 4 months.
Topical Scalp Serum Containing RLX‑201 in Subjects With Mild‑to‑Moderate Hair Thinning
Purpose of the Study
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of a scalp serum containing RLX‑201 when applied once daily for 20 weeks in men and women with mild‑to‑moderate hair thinning. The study will assess changes in hair density, hair thickness, and overall scalp health using clinical evaluations, imaging tools, and participant self‑assessments.
Eligibility
You MAY qualify if you can answer YES to all:
I am a healthy male or female between the ages of 30 and 60.
Self‑perceived mild‑to‑moderate hair thinning.
I have NOT used minoxidil, light therapy, or other hair growth treatments within 3 months.
I have NOT used medications affecting hair growth (e.g., finasteride, spironolactone, cyproterone acetate, 5‑alpha‑reductase inhibitors) or a GLP-1 within 6 months.
Study Design and Duration
This is a single‑center clinical study lasting approximately 20 weeks. If you agree to participate, you will be asked to attend study visits at the following time points: Baseline, and Weeks 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, and 20.
