Frequently Asked Questions

LASER HAIR REMOVAL
Laser hair removal is a treatment to resolve the problem of unwanted hair and ingrown hairs.

HOW DOES IT WORK?
It works by directing a laser beam onto the base of unwanted hair follicles where it disperses the energy and damages the base, reducing the rate at which the follicle can produce hair.

AM I SUITABLE FOR TREATMENT?
Most people are suitable for treatment. Best results are seen with people who have lighter skin and darker hair. Dark hair is more easily treated as it has a high concentration of melanin. Fair hair however contains less melanin so is harder to treat. Grey/white hair has no melanin so is not suitable for treatment.

HOW DOES THE TREATMENT FEEL?
Treatment sensation varies but is often described as a ‘flick of an elastic band’. No anaesthetic is required and most clients describe the discomforts as moderate and tolerable.

WHAT WILL I SEE AFTER TREATMENT?
The hair follicles are damaged by the heat but the hairs remain in the follicles. The dead hairs shed after 1 to 3 weeks as the epidermis renews. During this period the hairs will seem to grow as they are pushed out by the new epidermis.

ARE THERE ANY SIDE EFFECTS?
The skin may be red immediately after treatment and the hair follicles may be swollen and raised but this usually subsides within a few hours. Adverse reactions are rare but may include a small blister or temporary lightening or darkening of the skin.

HOW MANY TREATMENTS ARE NECESSARY?
Only hair that is actively growing is affected, therefore multiple treatments are needed. Treatments are conducted every 4 to 8 weeks depending on the area being treated, until a good result is seen. The number of treatments varies, although typically a minimum of 6 treatments or more are needed for optimum results.

HOW LONG DOES TREATMENT TAKE?
Treatments can take as little as 10 minutes and up to 3 hours (for full body), depending upon the size of area being treated.
