What is Laser Hair Removal?

Laser hair removal is a treatment whereby a Laser machine and a cooling system is used to deliver heat and energy into the skin to target and kill the hair follicles.

Laser hair removal is a life-changing treatment for many people and offers a lasting reduction for unwanted body and facial hair. Despite the many positive aspects of this treatment, there is a few things to consider before starting your Laser Hair Removal journey. Firstly your consultation and patch test are vitally important to the success of your treatment course. It’s essential that your hair is checked to ensure it is suitable for treatment. If you have any underlying health or hormonal issues these need to be talked through also. Hormone conditions can affect treatment outcome so you need to be made aware of this.

How does Laser work and does it really work?

Yes, laser hair removal works and is very effective at reducing excess hair. Laser Hair Removal will only work on brown or black hairs. Blonde, red, grey or white hairs will not respond to the treatment. Hair density is also important, laser will ONLY target dark, coarse hairs quickly. Fine, fluffy hairs will be harder to treat and may not reduce completely.The lasers work by destroying hair follicles, brown spots and blood vessels through a series of treatments without harming the surrounding skin. Results from Laser Hair Removal can be life-changing. Dealing with excess hair on a daily basis can cause issues with self-confidence especially on areas like the face. Laser works fast and helps with ingrown hairs and shaving rash leaving the skin soft and silky to the touch.
