Laser Hair Removal

Smooth, lasting results with a treatment tailored to you.

Does laser hair removal hurt?

Most people describe it as a mild snapping or warming sensation rather than pain. Sensitivity varies by area and individual tolerance, and technologies like a cooled ChillTip can help minimise discomfort in more sensitive zones.

Is laser hair removal permanent?

Laser treatment produces a long-term reduction in hair growth rather than guaranteed permanent removal. Most clients see a significant, lasting decrease in hair after a full course of sessions, though some fine regrowth can occur over time and occasional top-up sessions may help maintain results.

How many sessions will I need?

Hair grows in cycles, and laser can only effectively target hair that's in its active growth phase. Because of this, a course of multiple sessions — typically 6 to 8, spaced several weeks apart — is needed to treat all the follicles in an area.

What areas can be treated?

Laser hair removal can be used on most areas of the body, including legs, underarms, bikini line, back, chest and face. Suitability can vary by area and by individual hair and skin type, so your therapist will talk through the best plan for you at your consultation.

Does it work on all hair and skin types?

Laser targets pigment in the hair, so it tends to work best on darker hair, and results can vary for very fine, light or grey hair. It's generally suitable for a wide range of skin tones, but your therapist will assess your hair and skin type at your consultation to confirm the right approach for you.

Is laser hair removal only for women?

No — laser hair removal is suitable for men and women. It's a popular option for areas like the back, chest, neck and face, as well as the more commonly treated areas.

How do I prepare, and what should I do afterward?

Avoid sun exposure, tanning and waxing or plucking in the treatment area for a few weeks beforehand — shaving is fine. Afterward, avoid hot showers, saunas and exfoliating for a couple of days, keep the area out of direct sun, and use SPF once it's settled. Your therapist will run through anything specific to your skin at your appointment.
