How Laser Hair Removal Works

The laser targets pigment within the hair shaft, converting light energy to heat at the follicle. Because hair cycles through growth, transition and resting phases, and only actively growing hairs respond, a course of treatments is needed rather than a single session.

Preparing for Treatment

Preparation can vary with the treatment area, skin tone, hair characteristics and technology selected. Personalized preparation instructions are provided at consultation.

Suitability

A diode laser is the primary technology used for hair reduction. A 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser and IPL may also be considered in select cases. Skin tone, hair colour, hair thickness and the treatment area are assessed at consultation to determine suitability and select the appropriate technology.
