Laser Hair Removal works to destroy the hair follicles in the skin using light energy.
We the knowledge of your hair growth cycles to identify which stage the body hair is in and evaluate when future sessions are required, to catch the hair at the right time with the IPL or Diode laser treatment.
All body hair grows in stages and these stages are called Anagen, Catagen and Telogen.

Your entire body has a total of about 5 million hair follicles. You’re born with all of your hair follicles and don’t develop more as you age. Our Laser hair removal works to permanently damage and destroy the active hair growing folicals so you reduce the number of active hair folicals per treatment.

20% Hair Reduction With Each Session

We use the latest technology in both IPL and Diode laser devices to target the root of the hairs and emits powerful visible and invisible light pulses to the hairs that have colour. The dark pigment in the hair follicles soak up the heat from the laser which then damages the hair follicles.

With each treatment, you will see up to 20% hair reduction over the session.

No White Hairs

Our laser treatments are suitable for all skin types where the hair has colour in to absorb the laser, white hairs can not be treated with laser hair removal and would require electolysis.

Men have a lot of active hair follicles, almost over the whole body. 

Your full body hair can be treated with laser hair removal, covering the face, chest, arms, back, shoulders, legs, hands, feet, nipples, groin, buttocks, intimate area and pubic areas. 

Under the eyebrows, inside the nostrils, and inside the ears can not be treated with the laser.
