Laser Hair Removal Treatment

The first step is to arrange to come and see us for a consultation with one of our highly experienced therapists. You will see the therapist who is an expert in your condition and will be performing the treatment. We will go through your medical history and all the of the treatment and options will be explained to you, including the costs involved. If you decide to go ahead with Laser Hair Removal then an appointment with the practitioner will be arranged for you.

Some redness may occur on the skin after the treatment, but this should not last longer than 24 hours. You should avoid direct sun light and heat treatments for 24 hours after having the treatment; it is recommended you wear SPF on areas that cannot be covered.

During the treatment you will feel a warm sensation as the laser moves along the skin targeting the hair follicles underneath; the laser will not cause any damage to your skin.

Our laser hair removal Droitwich clinic offers treatment that is suitable for most people, even those with the most sensitive skin. The vast majority of patients describe the sensation of laser treatment as tingling. The laser doesn’t damage the surrounding skin cells or tissue and even cools the skin before the laser pulse, using a cold cryogen spray. Treatment is extremely fast so any discomfort doesn’t last long.

At Outline Clinic we use two different lasers in our laser hair removal Worcestershire clinic; a long pulsed Alexandrite laser and a long pulsed Nd:YAG laser. This means patients with any skin type can be treated safely. Some lasers are not suitable for those with darker skin tones and this is why we have two different lasers to enable us to treat all skin colours.

The precise amount of treatments you require varies depending on the individual and the type of hair you are looking to remove. This will be assessed during your consultation; however, it is normally a course of 6 to 8 treatments.
