Why is Hair Removal the best solution?

Our Laser offers effective results while maintaining the normal appearance of the skin. It uses the best technology currently available for hair removal, offering outstanding results with the widest range of skin tones and hair colours.

The laser beam penetrates your skin and gets absorbed in the hair follicle residing under the skin surface. The laser energy destroys the follicle with the heat that it generates. Because the laser beam is large in diameter, it affects a large number of hairs simultaneously.

What can I expect during the treatment?

Before treatment, it is important to make sure that any long unwanted hair is cut, flush with the skin. Patients agree that the procedure is not unduly painful, and certainly much less uncomfortable than electrolysis.

To reduce discomfort, a cooling system automatically removes heat from the surface of your skin before, during and after the laser exposure. You will not need a general anaesthesia or pain medication, but a topical anaesthetic cream may be applied to sensitive areas.

How many treatments will be needed?

The number of treatments required to obtain optimal results varies with hair density, hair colour, skin types, the treatment area and your hair growth cycle. The density of your hair and its growth cycle are affected by many things such as your age, ethnic background, hormones or medications. Laser treatments impair the growth capacity of hair follicles when they are in a growth cycle at the time of treatment. All hair follicles are not active at the same time. Depending upon the growth cycle of the follicles when the treatment is applied, several treatments with a few weeks in between may be required to obtain the optimal effect.

How laser hair removal treatment works

Is laser hair removal permanent?

At Chiltern Medical Clinic, we only use lasers that are approved for permanent hair reduction by the United States Federal Drug Administration. This means most patients will achieve long-term, stable reduction in the number of hairs re-growing in the treated areas. The amount of permanent reduction increases with the number of treatments. Occasionally, you may have a few hairs regrow over a period of time.

How long do the treatments take?

We can treat some areas in only a few minutes. Others, such as the back or legs, require 20-40 minutes. For example, the underarms or bikini lines take only fifteen minutes.

What should I expect following the treatment?

Once the treatment is complete, the area exposed to the laser is cleansed and you are free to return to your normal routine. Some patients may experience a slight reddening around hair follicles following the treatment, which typically disappears within a few minutes. It is always recommended to avoid sun exposure or to use sunscreen following the laser treatment.

Hair follicles affected by the laser are lifeless and your body will attempt to cast them off over a period of time. It will seem that the hair continues to grow for one to two weeks after the procedure, but in fact these lifeless hairs will easily fall out.

Can you treat darker skin colours?

At Chiltern Medical Clinic, we have the newest lasers that have been specifically designed to treat all skin colours. They are safe, affordable, and can achieve the same permanent hair reduction as seen in lighter skin types.

Is laser hair removal safe?

Since only light is used to remove hair, it is totally non-invasive. Your eyes will be shielded during the treatment. While there is a slight chance of skin irritation and pigment changes, these are rare due to the type of lasers used at Chiltern Medical Clinic and the training of our staff.
