Is laser hair removal right for you?
Laser works by directing energy toward pigment associated with the hair follicle. It is most useful when there is enough contrast between the hair and surrounding skin, but modern systems and careful settings can broaden who can be treated. A consultation or patch test may be recommended before treatment.
What treatment is like
The area is prepared, protective eyewear is used and the laser is passed over the treatment area. Sensation varies by area and individual. Hair grows in cycles, so a series of sessions is usually needed rather than one treatment. Maintenance can sometimes be useful later.
Laser or electrolysis?
Laser is efficient for many larger areas and darker hairs. Electrolysis treats individual follicles and can be useful for smaller areas, lighter hairs or remaining hairs after laser. Our team can help you decide which route is more practical.
After treatment
Temporary redness or sensitivity can occur. Follow the after-care instructions provided for your treatment, including sun protection and any guidance about heat, exercise, exfoliation or hair-removal methods between sessions.
