ASKED QUESTIONS

Is laser hair removal permanent?
Depending on the body part being treated and whether the hair growth is in the active stage, we can achieve 80% permanent hair reduction with 6-9 treatments. The amount of time in between each session is 4-6 weeks.
How does laser hair removal work?
Laser hair removal is the most effective way to get smooth hair-free skin. Laser destroys the root of the hair by heating the root of the hair and leaving a silky surface; and you can also say goodbye to ingrown hairs!
Will laser hair removal work on all skin types?
YES, our laser hair removal machine works on all skin types, from very dark skin to very light toned skin. If you have really stubborn/white course hair, you might want to consider electrolysis.
What should I do before my laser hair removal treatment?
Please shave the area you are having treatment on the day before, so the laser can accurately locate the follicles, and therefore be more effective.
Are laser treatments painful?
With state of the art technology, our machine has a built-in cooling system, and we place a cooling gel on the surface of the skin being treated, making your session virtually painless.
