The laser emits a light that is absorbed by the pigment in the hair. In the clinic, we utilise SWT (selective waveband technology) to target the hair with narrow wavelengths of light. This light energy is designed to destroy hair follicles in the skin which disrupts the hair growth. This method uses less heat on your skin making it a more comfortable experience.

The hairs are targeted and permanently destroyed. However, our bodies are programmed to produce hair and some strands can regrow at a slow rate. We recommend a booster session to be carried out annually to prolong the result.

This treatment is tolerated well by clients. At the beginning of treatment when there is more hair, this tends to be the most uncomfortable, because the hair absorbs the energy. As you progress with the course and have less hair, it tends to become more comfortable. The practitioner will apply a good amount of cooling gel to take any discomfort away.
