LASER HAIR REMOVAL TREATMENT FAQ'S

 

Any medical laser procedure can be a bit intimidating at first. Learn more about Pain-Free, Hair-Free™ here, so you'll feel completely comfortable with the procedure.

Is it safe?

Hair removal is one of the aesthetic medical industry's most well-known and researched uses of asers. Pain-Free, Hair-Free's Soprano®XL laser has provided permanent hair reduction for thousands of patients worldwide, safely and successfully since it was cleared by the FDA in 2005.

How many treatments will I need?

There are a number of factors that can affect the success of a series of hair removal treatments, but generally, after each treatment, you will see a noticeable, permanent reduction in the number of hairs that regrow in the treatment area. Typically, it will require 4 - 6 treatments or more to permanently reduce the number of regrowing hairs by more than 80%.

Will my hair ever grow back?

The short answer is no. Once the hair follicle is damaged, it cannot grow new hair. However, there are invariably a few hair follicles that manage to partially escape the laser during each treatment. Some of these follicles may be only stunned and will need to be retreated.

Do I need to plan for time off, for the treatments?

No. Pain-Free, Hair-Free requires no "down time" or recovery time. You can have a treatment and return to work or school/college immediately.

How do I know it won't hurt?

Most people find Pain-Free, Hair-Free very comfortable. While pain tolerance is subjective, many patients often describe the sensation as soothing as a "hot stone massage."

 What does it involve?

Patients undergo a consultation with our lady Doctor who will explain more about how the reatment works, the side effects which may occur, and the procedure itself. A full medical history will be discussed. Clinical photographs will be taken.  Consent forms will have to be signed.

Gel is applied to the treatment area. A patch test will be done first, before the whole treatment is done 45 minutes later. The laser handpiece has a ‘chill tip’ which keeps the skin above cool while the tissue underneathe, which bears the hair follicles is heated.

How much does it cost?

Compared with a lifetime of shaving, waxing or plucking, Pain-Free, Hair-Free can be a worthwhile investment in both time and money-savings. Our prices are very competitive and we can beat any clinic on price by £25, based on a written quotation from that clinic.

Still have questions?

Why not give us a ring and fix an appointment to see our lady Doctor? She will be able to answer all your queries, do a patch test and proceed to full treatment, safely and effectively.
