Hair Removal

Our hair removal service utilises a professional Nd:YAG laser system designed to support the reduction of unwanted hair in a controlled, non-invasive manner. Treatments are performed by trained practitioners and customised according to individual skin type, hair characteristics and treatment area.

This light-based approach is commonly selected for clients seeking a long-term hair reduction solution with a focus on skin comfort and aesthetic appearance.


 

Treatment Features

The Nd:YAG laser technology incorporates advanced pulse-control settings and multi-directional treatment patterns to support even energy distribution across the skin surface.

Key aspects include:

  • Controlled light delivery designed to target hair pigment

  • Customisable treatment parameters based on individual consultation

  • A treatment approach suitable for a wide range of skin types

  • Non-invasive procedure with minimal disruption to daily activities


 

Suitability

This hair reduction treatment may be selected by individuals with various skin and hair types. A consultation is required to determine suitability and appropriate treatment settings.


 

Expected Outcomes

Hair reduction outcomes vary between individuals and are influenced by factors such as hair colour, hair growth cycle and skin type. Many clients experience gradual reduction in visible hair growth over a series of treatments. Any regrowth may appear finer and less noticeable.

Multiple sessions are commonly recommended.

How It Works

Our hair reduction treatments utilise professional Nd:YAG laser technology from Fotona, delivered by trained practitioners using customisable treatment settings.

These systems emit controlled light energy that is directed toward the pigment within the hair shaft at the skin surface. This process is designed to support gradual reduction in visible hair growth over a series of sessions.


 

Technology Platforms

We use advanced Fotona laser platforms, including:

Fotona SP & XP Series
These systems combine long-pulse Nd:YAG laser modes for cosmetic hair reduction and other skin services. The platforms are selected for their versatility, treatment consistency and suitability for a wide range of aesthetic applications.

StarWalker Platform
StarWalker incorporates multiple light-based modalities that can be used for facial hair reduction and additional cosmetic skin services. Treatment parameters are adjusted according to individual skin and hair characteristics.


 

Treatment Approach

  • Customised laser settings based on skin type and hair characteristics

  • Non-ablative, non-invasive light delivery

  • Progressive reduction of hair visibility over multiple treatments

  • Designed to support skin comfort and treatment precision

Individual results vary, and multiple sessions are typically required.

Hair Reduction – Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is laser hair reduction?

Laser hair reduction is a non-invasive cosmetic treatment that uses controlled light energy to support the gradual reduction of unwanted hair growth over a series of sessions.

2. How does the treatment work?

The treatment delivers light energy to the hair pigment at the skin surface. This process is designed to support reduced visibility of hair growth over time. Treatment settings are customised based on individual skin and hair characteristics.

3. Is laser hair reduction suitable for all skin types?

This treatment can be performed on a wide range of skin types. A consultation is required to determine suitability and appropriate treatment parameters.

4. What areas can be treated?

Common treatment areas include the face, underarms, arms, legs, bikini area, back and chest.

5. What can I expect during the treatment?

You may feel brief sensations of warmth or tingling during treatment. The procedure is generally well tolerated and session length varies depending on the area treated.

6. Is there any downtime after treatment?

Most clients experience minimal downtime. Temporary redness or warmth may occur and usually settles within a short period. Normal activities can often be resumed the same day.

7. How many sessions are required?

Hair reduction is a gradual process. Multiple sessions are commonly recommended, as hair grows in cycles and not all follicles respond at the same time.

8. When will I see changes?

Gradual reduction in visible hair growth may be noticed over a series of treatments. Individual results vary.

9. Are there any side effects?

Side effects are generally mild and temporary and may include redness, sensitivity or slight swelling.

Laser hair treatments are designed to achieve hair reduction, not permanent hair removal. Regrowth, if it occurs, may appear finer and less noticeable.

11. Who is suitable for this treatment?

Laser hair reduction is suitable for adults seeking a cosmetic solution to unwanted hair. A consultation will determine individual suitability.

12. How should I prepare for treatment?

Aftercare may include:
