We use the globally recognised Candela Gentle Pro Max which gives exceptional results
Using a specific wavelength of light that is selectively absorbed by the melanin surrounding the hair follicle, the laser is applied to the skin and the heat is conducted down to the base of the follicle. At the same time the superior contact cooling Technology cools the skin to protect and avoid any damage to the surrounding skin. The hair will be destroyed and removed. All delivered by an award winning laser clinic in Swindon for the best laser hair removal
A course of treatments is required as laser hair removal is effective on hairs in the growing stage or visible on the skin. At any one time 70% of the hairs in the skin are dormant and not visible on the surface. Therefore for maximum clearance treatments are required for each phase of hair growth.
The Candela laser we use is one of the best in the world from a global award winning manufacturer, it typically requires less treatments than older IPL or lasers. It’s a hard question to answer generically as factor like skin colour, hair colour and hair thickness all play a part. It can be anywhere between 6 and 15 sessions. It’s uncommon for people to get good clearance at 6 treatments, it’s typically 8-10 sessions for most people. If the back Is being treated and it’s very thick and dark it will be a higher number of sessions.
Treatments are scheduled between 4 and 8 or 10 weeks apart as you wait for the next phase of hair growth to appear on the surface. The frequency of the sessions depends on the areas being treated as hair growth varies in different areas. Facial treatments are typically every 4-6 weeks and body treatments are typically every 6-8 or even 10-12 weeks for some areas.
Most clients find the treatments entirely manageable as the laser system incorporates advanced cooling technology. The cold air technology keeps the skin at a cooler temperature throughout the treatment which protects it. There is a tingling/needling/snap type sensation. Treatments are quick so any occasional discomfort is momentary. Laser hair removal gives great results so its worth any minor discomfort occasional discomfort
