Powerful laser energy is delivered through a small handpiece operated by one of our highly trained practitioners. The laser delivers an intense beam of light combined with DCD to provide an almost pain free experience. The advanced technology only targets the hair follicles and leaves the surrounding tissue unharmed.

‍How does laser work?

Lasers used in clinics are far more powerful then the home laser devices you may have seen online costing around a hundred pounds.

The laser emits a beam of light which passes through the top layers of the skin and targets and destroys the hair follicle. The laser light is absorbed by the pigment or colour in the shaft of the hair and follicle. The energy from the laser heats and permanently destroys the stem holding the hair. This loosens the hair which will eventually fall out. New hair cells are also prevented from forming.

• Chest

• Arms

• Underarms

• Back

• Legs

• Pubic Area

• Stomach

• Bikini line/Brazilian

HOW MANY SESSIONS DO I NEED BEFORE MY HAIR DOESN’T GROW BACK AT ALL?

Laser hair removal works best when a course of treatments are performed at regular intervals. This should give you the best results. Most clinics recommend a course of treatments.

This is commonly between 6-8 sessions. Depending on how well you respond to the laser this may be more than enough or you may need to extra top up sessions to get the results you are after

HOW LONG DO YOU WAIT BETWEEN SESSIONS?

Your sessions are usually spaced about 6 weeks apart. This is so your sessions are timed with your hair growth cycle that takes about 6 weeks

That is why you will be advised not to wax or epilate in between session as it will cause disruption to your hair growth cycle.

Shaving is fine as it cuts the hair above the epidermis or top layer whereas waxing and epilating remove hair from below.

Can I have a sauna after laser hair removal or exercise?

As the laser transfers a lot of heat energy into skin you should avoid anything that heats up the skin further like saunas and exercise for at least 48 hours following your laser session. This will allow your skin to continue with the healing process without interruption.

Sun exposure after laser hair removal?

You should cover up the area as much as possible to avoid sun exposure after your laser hair treatment. This is easier if you have had bikini line laser, but harder if your arms or face have been lasered.

The first 48 hours after laser treatment are important to protect your skin and avoid sunlight. Use a high factor sun cream with an SPF of 30+ and cover up. In the weeks following your treatment, continue to wear SPF and protect your skin by covering up as much as possible.

CAN I HAVE LASER OVER MY TATTOO?

No. You can have a laser around the tattoo but not over it. The laser will be attracted to the colour pigment in the ink causing pigmentation issues to the skin. An experienced technician can skilfully go around your tattoo.

If you are thinking about getting a tattoo and want to be hair free, get laser hair removal done first.

HOW LONG laser hair removal LAST?

Results will vary from person to person. Hormonal changes can affect your hair growth too. You can experience up to 90% permanent hair reduction after you have completed all your treatments.

The occasional top up session may be required yearly. For most, the results have a huge impact on their lives.
