What it actually does
Laser hair removal targets the pigment in the hair to reduce regrowth over a course of sessions, leaving the underarms smoother and lower-maintenance than shaving or waxing. Hair grows in cycles, which is why it is treated across several sessions rather than cleared in one.
We use an upgraded laser and set it for your skin and hair — that is a clinical decision, made after we assess the area.
What to expect
A quick, comfortable session with no downtime — most people feel warmth and a light snapping sensation as the laser works. Hair sheds over the following days and thins across the course; results and the number of sessions needed vary from person to person.
Before we treat
We assess your skin and hair first, because laser works differently across skin tones and hair types, and patch-test where needed. If laser is not the right fit for you, we will say so rather than start a course that will not deliver.
