Tired of the endless cycle of shaving, waxing, and plucking? Laser hair removal is one of the most effective ways to get long-lasting smoothness.

How it works

Laser energy targets the pigment (melanin) in the hair follicle and damages it, slowing future growth. Most people need a course of 6 to 8 sessions spaced several weeks apart, since hair grows in cycles and laser only affects hair in its active growth phase. After a course, many people see significant, long-lasting reduction, with occasional touch-up sessions.

Why it’s often the best choice

Unlike shaving or waxing, laser doesn’t need to be repeated every few days or weeks. Over time, most people spend far less time and money on hair removal. Electrolysis is the only method generally recognised as permanent hair removal, but laser offers a faster, more comfortable alternative for many people.

Different areas respond differently

• Legs, underarms, and bikini line are usually responsive and tend to show good results quickly.
• The face, particularly the upper lip, chin, and jawline, can be influenced by hormones, so these areas often need more sessions.
• Fine, blonde, grey, or red hair contains less pigment, so it responds less well to laser.
