    laser emitting 755 nm light, used for hair removal

    An Alexandrite Laser is a type of laser that emits light at a wavelength of 755 nanometers, which is in the red and near-infrared spectrum.

The laser works by targeting the melanin in hair follicles, making it particularly effective for individuals with light to olive skin tones and dark hair.
