LASER HAIR REDUCTION
30 Minutes | £20
Thinking about starting laser hair reduction? This consultation is the first step towards achieving smoother, hair-free skin safely and effectively.
During your appointment, we will assess your skin type, hair type, medical history and treatment goals to determine your suitability for laser hair reduction and create a personalised treatment plan tailored to you.
Laser Hair Reduction s an innovative, reliable, and safe long-term method of removing unwanted hair for both men and women. It stands out as one of the most effective and least painful method among other hair removal techniques.
By removing hair from virtually any part of your body, this treatment will leave your skin feeling soft and smooth. It will also leave you free from painful in-growing hairs.
Here at SKINFIX Clinic we use the combined 3 Wave diode painless laser SHR* for all skin types I-IV.
*SHR is a unique technology that gently heats the dermis to a temperature that effectively damages the hair follicles and prevents re-growth, while avoiding injury to the surrounding tissue. A high repetition rate of short pulses are delivered deep into the dermis, achieving high average power and therapeutically effective heat build-up, with virtually no pain. The in-motion technique of moving the applicator repeatedly over the treatment area ensures full coverage while the cooling system cools the skin surface preventing superficial burns and allowing for virtually painless, yet highly effective hair removal.
What is it?
Laser treatment is based on a technology that delivers rapid pulses of high intensity light targeting melanin (the colour pigment in hair). The light energy is converted to heat which travels down the hair follicle to the root and destroys the germination centre preventing regrowth.
Laser only works, however, on hair in the ‘Growth’ stage, which makes up around 25% of the hair on your body at any given time. Dead hair can take up to three weeks before being shed by the skin, which is why a number of sessions are required to ensure that all hairs are treated effectively.

CAN ANY SKIN TYPE HAVE LASER HAIR REduction?
At SKINFIX Clinic we are pleased to be able to treat all skin types, ranging from very fair to very dark.
Our lasers work with most hair and skin combinations, provided that there is enough pigment in the hair, i.e. it is dark enough to attract the laser. This means you are unlikely to see results if you have white, blonde, grey or red hair.
What skin type do you have? Find out on the Fitzpatrick scale below:
Type 1: always burns, never tans (pale, freckles).
Type 2: usually burns, minimal tanning.
Type 3: sometimes burns mildly, tans uniformly.
Type 4: burns minimally, always tans well (moderate brown).
Type 5: very rarely burns, tans very easily (dark brown).
Type 6: never burns (deeply pigmented dark brown to darkest brown).

HOW MANY TREATMENTS ARE RQUIRED?
