LASER HAIR REMOVAL

Permanent hair reduction. Visible results within weeks.

The main benefit of laser hair removal is that you achieve permanent hair reduction. Since the laser targets active hair follicles, each treatment progressively reduces the amount of active hair. You will notice permanent results, leaving your skin feeling smooth and fresh without the growth of stubble and ingrown hairs.

Treatments typically range from 6-12 per area, and roughly 4-6 weeks apart.

We provide Laser Hair Reduction services on all body areas. 

We understand that it is quite daunting to undergo a treatment that can be quite embarrassing or overly exposed, therefore our experienced and professional staff are willing to guide you through the process without making you feel uncomfortable. The wealth of experience our clinicians offer means you can trust us to determine the best course of treatment for your hair and skin type.

 

A FREE consultation will be completed prior to any treatment with us to answer any questions as well as explain the before and aftercare procedures and what to expect.

​

Pre-Treatment Care

  • Shaving within 12 hours prior to treatment will remove the necessary amount of extra growth, to avoid hair just being singed during treatment – unlike waxing, we do not need to see the hair on the surface to effectively eliminate it.

  • Under no circumstances should you expose yourself to direct sunlight, fake tan or a solarium. Apply sunblock liberally (no matter your intended activities for the day) and keep your skin thoroughly moisturised.

  • Do not wax or pluck for up to four weeks prior to your appointment. You may shave, but by using any other hair removal technique, you risk reducing the effectiveness of the treatment significantly.

  • Before heading into your laser hair removal treatment, ensure your skin is free of any cosmetics, beauty products, lotions, deodorant and creams.

  • Think carefully about what you intend on wearing to your appointment. Opt for loose fitting clothing that will allow you to comfortably expose the skin site to be treated easily. Also consider what will provide you with optimal comfort and minimal irritation after the session.

Aftercare

  • It’s important that you do not pluck or wax any hair on the area that was treated. By doing so, you will disrupt the treatment process which may lead to potential stimulation  of the hair follicle, in other words you could potentially spark regrowth.

  • Exfoliate the area once any redness subsides, approximately one to two weeks after your laser hair removal appointment.

  • Avoid extremely hot showers or baths for at least 48 hours after the treatment.

  • If discolouration/pigmentation occurs to the affected area, apply vitamin E to encourage soothing of the skin.

  • Avoid direct sunlight for at least two to four weeks after the treatment.

  • If you have undergone laser hair removal in a facial area, mineral makeup may be applied within the first 48 hours, but other cosmetics should be avoided until the skin has had time to heal.

  • Keep away from deodorants for at least three days to avoid causing irritation.

  • Whilst it’s not uncommon to experience itching, it’s important not the scratch the affected area. Scratching or causing a scab to arise may result in scarring.

  • Give your body 24-48 hours rest from excessive exercise, the gym or the sauna – these can all cause irritation.
