Every client is different, and results vary due to personal physiology including hair colour, coarseness and density, and skin tone. We typically recommend three to five sessions for optimal results and to achieve permanent hair reduction. Clinic studies show that women and men who received three treatments—six weeks apart—had an average hair reduction of 81% at a six-month follow-up.

There are three phases in the hair growth cycle—this cycle varies from hair to hair—and laser treatment is effective during the anagen (growth) phase only. That’s why it’s essential to complete your recommended sessions, four to six weeks apart.

Laser hair removal is sometimes overpromised as a permanent solution, but this isn’t exactly accurate. When hair follicles are destroyed by the laser treatment, hairs won’t regrow. But over time, your body generates new hair follicles—this is how new hair growth occurs. However, you should expect a permanent hair reduction of approximately 81%. After your four to six treatments, new hairs will grow slowly, grow in thinner and have a finer texture than before. To target those new hairs and stay silky smooth, we recommend maintenance treatments once or twice a year.

In the earlier days of laser hair removal, the treatment only worked for fair-skinned people with dark hair. Fortunately, technology has advanced, and lasers can remove hair from just about everyone. However, darker hair still responds best to laser treatment because it’s the melanin in the hair follicles that absorb the laser energy. If you have extremely light-coloured hair, the hair follicles absorb less energy, and it may take more sessions to get the best results. Laser hair removal is not effective on grey hair.

We customize your treatment to match your hair type and skin colour, so your treatment is as effective and comfortable as possible.

One common misunderstanding is about how long it takes to see results; people think that after one or two sessions, all your unwanted hair disappears for good. This is not the case. Most people require three to five treatments, and the first treatment rarely produces a visible result.

Laser hair removal is typically a painless experience. Most clients don’t feel anything at all while others report a tingling or pinching sensation, like a rubber band snapping against the skin. Our laser has a patented cooling device built in, which helps keep you comfortable during treatment.
