Laser Hair Removal

We offer professional laser hair removal for both the face and body, with treatments tailored to your skin type, hair type, and treatment area. Multiple areas can often be treated in the same appointment, making it a convenient option for clients who want to reduce unwanted hair across more than one part of the body.

Before starting treatment, you will need to attend a consultation and patch test. This is an important part of the process, as it allows us to assess your skin and hair, discuss your goals, and select the most suitable laser settings for you. The patch test also helps us see how your skin responds to the laser before proceeding with a full treatment.

Laser hair removal is suitable for many areas, including the face, underarms, arms, legs, bikini line, back, chest, and more. Your treatment plan and the frequency of your sessions will depend on the area being treated, your hair growth cycle, and the thickness and density of the hair.

Why is a course of treatments needed?

Laser hair removal requires a course of sessions because hair grows in different stages. The laser is most effective when the hair is in the active growth phase, also known as the anagen phase. During this stage, the hair is connected to the follicle and contains the most pigment, which helps the laser energy target and heat the root effectively.

Not all hairs are in this phase at the same time. Some hairs may be in a resting or shedding stage, which means they will not respond as effectively during that session. This is why multiple treatments are needed, spaced out over time, to target hairs as they enter the active growth phase and achieve the best possible reduction.

How does laser hair removal work?

Laser hair removal works by delivering concentrated light energy into the hair follicle. The pigment within the hair absorbs this light, which converts into heat and targets the root of the hair. This helps damage the follicle and reduce future hair growth.

To help protect the skin and keep the treatment as comfortable as possible, a cooling method is used during the procedure. This helps minimise heat on the skin’s surface while allowing the laser to effectively target the follicle beneath.

Consultation and patch test

Your consultation is the first step in your laser hair removal journey. During this appointment, we will:

• assess your skin type and hair type

• review your medical history and suitability for treatment

• explain the treatment process and expected results

• create a personalised treatment plan

• carry out a patch test

This ensures your treatment is both safe and tailored to you.

What can laser hair removal help with?

Laser hair removal is ideal for clients who want a long-term reduction in unwanted hair and smoother skin with less need for shaving, waxing, or plucking. It can also be a helpful option for those who experience:

• frequent ingrown hairs

• irritation from shaving or waxing

• excessive or unwanted facial or body hair

What to expect

Most clients need a series of treatments for the best results. The exact number of sessions varies from person to person, as results depend on the treatment area, hair thickness, hair colour, skin tone, and hormonal factors.

We will guide you through the recommended treatment schedule during your consultation so you know exactly what to expect.
