WHY CHOOSE LASER SKIN AND BODY?

Laser Skin & Body has significant expertise in laser hair removal. We at all times strive for total elimination of hair while requiring fewer visits from our clients than other clinics.

Be wary of clinics that advertise ‘IPL laser’ hair removal. IPL, although highly effective for other treatments, cannot remove hair with the speed, precision or effect of medical-grade diode lasers. Laser Skin & Body exclusively uses medical-grade diode laser machines for its hair removal treatments.

Constant hair removal over time can be tedious, painful and expensive but with our laser hair removal machines, you will experience a permanent solution after as few as 6-8 treatments with only occasional maintenance needed in comaprison to the cost and hassle of a lifetime of waxing.

MORE ABOUT OUR LASER MACHINES

Our machines utilise world-class hair reduction technology so that you can experience less time in treatment rooms and more time enjoying life. The GentleMax Pro Plus® platform is Candela’s latest evolution in the #1 dermatologist-recommended brand for laser hair removal. Built on a foundation of over 20 years of clinically proven performance across all skin types.

Our operators and machines offer long-lasting results, efficiency and comfort. With minimal downtime needed, you can bounce back into your busy schedule in no time at all, unlike many other invasive hair removal treatments.

HOW IT WORKS

Laser hair removal works by directing concentrated light into the hair follicle, inhibiting the hair’s ability to grow – without disrupting or damaging the skin’s surface.

For over 20 years, Gentle Pro Series devices have been the industry leading laser hair removal systems, trusted by dermatologists and aestheticians around the globe to successfully treat patients of all skin types. With 755 nm and 1064 nm dual wavelengths for laser hair removal, vascular and skin treatments, as well as multiple spot sizes and variable pulse duration. The latest Candela Gentle Pro Max Plus offers permanent hair reduction for patients of all skin types, including those with thinner/finer hair. The Gentle Pro Series is the perfect device for anybody!

Our experienced therapists will take your skin and hair type into account before creating a personalised treatment plan.

BENEFITS

Designed with sensitive skin in mind, our laser hair removal technology is safe enough for any part of the body and targets different skin types whilst ensuring maximum results. All of our lasers feature a unique dynamic cooling device that helps to calm, soothe and protect the skin.

Laser hair removal benefits include:

  • Permanent hair reduction
  • Reduce ingrown hairs
  • Safe and effective technology
  • Convenient and cost-effective
  • Cheaper than waxing

For your initial course of laser hair removal treatment, we recommend approximately 6-10 treatments, spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Everyone is slightly different so book a complimentary consultation with one of our laser therapists.

Preparation

  • Shave the treatment area the night before your appointment.
  • Do not wax in the 4 weeks leading up to your appointment as the pigment is required in the hair follicle for the laser to identify the hair and treatment to be effective.
  • Avoid exposing the area to direct sunlight for 2 weeks prior to your treatment and always protect the skin with sunscreen.

Aftercare

  • There may be some mild heat and redness in the areas that have been treated. Soothe any redness and sensitivity with post Laser gel. This will continue to draw heat out of the skin and keep the area cool and hydrated. Laser gel can be applied liberally for 3-5 days or until the skin has returned to its pre-treatment state.
  • For 24 hours post-treatment, avoid shaving, waxing or plucking hair, exfoliation, excessive sweating, swimming or saunas, very hot showers and tight restrictive clothing.
  • Avoid exposing the area to direct sunlight for 2 weeks after your treatment and always use the SPF 50+ to protect the skin and maintain results.
  • A scrub is recommended to use 5 days post-treatment to ensure the hair is encouraged to shed from the follicle and aid in the treatment of ingrown hairs, facilitating better absorption of the laser.
