Laser Hair Removal London

Laser Hair Removal is the most effective, long-term hair reduction method.  Typically you may need 6 to 8 sessions to see maximum result.  Results vary from person to person.  Top-up sessions may be required after some years.

After your first laser hair removal treatment, you will begin to notice shedding of hair.  Regrowth in the area is reduced and any new hairs come out finer and thinner to be treated at the next session.

Laser Hair Removal will be a cheaper alternative in the long term than other hair removal methods such as waxing and shaving.   A simple underarm and bikini wax on average is estimated to cost around £600 per year, with laser hair removal you make a one-off payment of a similar price but the results will last you years, saving time and money.

6-8 Sessions are recommended. This can vary depending on your skin type, hair type , hormone levels and response to laser hair treatment. You will see results after your first session. It will take several sessions to permanently remove hair spaced four to six weeks apart depending on the area treated. You should see up to 90 percent reduction in hair growth. For best results, maintenance treatments are recommended once a year for at least a couple years.

The most common side effects of laser hair removal are:

Skin irritation.

Temporary discomfort

Redness

Swelling

Pigment changes. (Laser hair removal might darken or lighten the affected skin, usually temporarily)

If you are concerned about any of these potential side effects please speak to your medical practitioner. That is why we always perform a patch test at least 24 hours before starting any treatment.

Laser treatment affects hair in the active growth phase (anagen stage). The laser beam is made up of precisely controlled pulses of energy which are absorbed by the melanin or pigment in the hair and reaches into the active hair follicles that lie beneath the skin. 

The energy heats the hair, right down to the bottom of the root, safely destroying it without damaging surrounding tissue or skin. 

Most people will need a course of between 6 and 8 sessions after which time the hair will be visibly reduced or permanently removed and the skin will be smooth and even.
