Laser hair removal targets hair at the follicle to reduce regrowth over a course of sessions. It can be performed on most areas of the body and is available to both men and women.
A consultation is required to determine whether it may be appropriate for you. Your skin type, hair type, relevant medical history and the number of sessions likely to be needed are assessed and discussed, along with the potential risks and limitations.
What to know
Results vary between individuals and hair reduction is not the same as permanent removal. Some hair regrowth is common and maintenance sessions may be needed.
Risks include redness, swelling, blistering, burns and changes in skin pigmentation. Skin type affects both the treatment choice and the settings used, which is part of what the assessment decides.
Multiple-area packages are available. Pricing is discussed at consultation.
Important information
A clinical consultation is required before treatment. Your practitioner will assess your concerns, relevant medical history, treatment suitability and available options. Potential risks, limitations, expected recovery and realistic treatment outcomes are also discussed as part of the informed consent process.
Treatment is not suitable for everyone. Suitability and outcomes vary between individuals.
