What Is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser Hair Removal is a highly effective treatment that uses advanced laser technology to target and disable hair follicles, significantly reducing unwanted hair growth over time.
This treatment offers a long-term solution for smooth, hair-free skin on almost any area of the body.
How the Treatment Works
1. Consultation & Skin Assessment
Your journey starts with a thorough consultation to determine your skin type, hair type, and suitability for laser treatment.
2. Preparation of the Area
The treatment area is cleaned, shaved if necessary, and protected with cooling gel or advanced skin-cooling technology.
3. Laser Application
A concentrated beam of light is delivered into the hair follicles. The pigment absorbs the light, creating heat that safely disables the follicle and prevents future growth.
4. Post-Treatment Soothing
Cooling and soothing products are applied to minimise redness and protect the skin.
